A couple of weeks ago, I fell off of a road in Tennessee. BAD arm Rash, broken toe, screwed up knee, and smashed calf.

I can walk somewhat and work again. Tell your friend to hang in there.... it gets better!!!

Wish for the best for your pardner and a speedy recovery. Have been through that and still get nervous when I think about it. Life is a calculated risk you just have to be as safe as you can.

GA drivers love to pull out in front of you - more than any other place I have lived. Glad he is going to be okay.

Sorry to hear about your friend. Will keep him in my prayers for a quick recover. When he heals stress to him Riding gear helps reduce road rash... and skin grafs.

Been through Atlanta and I-75 South, it's enough to make anyone pucker. Hope your friend makes out allright.

Damn I really hate to hear about a rider going down, especially when it's due to people not paying attention. Praying he makes a full and speedy recovery.
