Default Since everyone else does it.....

Bike's totaled thanks to getting t-boned. Spent Sunday thru Thursday in the hospital, I'm home now with a shattered wrist and knee, broken bone in my hand, a bunch of stitches in my face, and more bruises than an MMA fight.



Be careful out there guys.

Crashing Sucks!!!

I hope you are planning to take ALL of the legal actions possible!! That is the ONLY way we can get cages to watch out for bikes.

Even with all our experience, we can't predict everything. Glad you're here to write about it.

Heal quickly...( Can't help but wonder what they'll do with the FLT...have you heard anything?)
