Chris....as everyone has said, best wishes for speedy recovery. Happy as hell to hear about all the help that was given to you from the onset. And yes, the best picture was you giving thumbs up!! Thoughts and prayers for you on a speedy recovery. Rest up and follow the doc's orders!!

Thank God you weren't out running your Guardian Angel. Prime example your's was riding shotgun that day.
Heal fast and be sure to double down on any rehab. I'm sure you know how fast you can physicaly go down hill, and If ole " Saw-Bones" OKs it. Get to the gym too. You sure don't want to climb back on that buckin bronc all shakey and wind up bucked off before you get outta the parking lot with a new ride.
Keep us in the loop from recovery to new ride to first trip.
