went down on the 4th
What a way to start my weekend. Some Old Fck in a pick up has his dog flying around inside the cabin of the truck. Next thing I know he slams on his brakes and turns right, into a parking lot. I must have missed the sign that said "No Blinker Necessary For Old People". So he gets out and is like what happened? I had no shrit on and just shorts, but recieved minimal road rash thank god. The cop shows up and totally knows the guy I hit. Just my luck right. Well it turns out that this same guy caused an accident the week before and the same cop showed up at this other scene too. This guy couldn't even jot down my info because his finger was broken from the other accident. So MY friend had to do it. I shouldda just told him it was too bad and left, haha. Luckily my bike didn't get wrecked too bad. I just need the mid and lower fairing on the right side, oh yeah and whatever cover is on the right side too. I couldn't believe my exhaust didn't touch, the bike slid like 30 feet.
The worst part of it all is this is gonna be all my fault in the end becuase I rearended him. Stupid Fckin' old people!!!!
I just happened to have some vikes in my posession so, mixed with the multiple beers they got me feeling pretty good. My shoulder is totally junk right now, so no riding for a while. I think it popped out and then riht back in when I tried to save the bike. Either way I haven't been able to move it since the accident, but I'm just a stupid guy cause I refused the ambulance and the only Dr. I saw this weekend was Dr. Mgillicuddy's. oh well I have another arm right?!?

NOT SO NICE
I went to the Dr's yesterday and found out that the end of my clavical (collar bone) is totally F'd. I have to go see an orthopedic surgeon asap. I have my x-rays in my possesion and you can see that the whole end of the bone is broken off and upside down inside my shoulder. Can you say SURGERY, oh well it's heeled enough to ride for now. yeah I know that sounds wicked stupid riding again but I have alot of mobility considering it's broken. I just wanna few more rides before I go under the knife. Just like Zann's doin'. And yes I learned my lesson about the shirt/shorts thing.
More Vikes though, hehehe
Dr's are good for somethings
The bike is totally ridable so some of you may see me soon.
But thanks for the support peoples!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never knew you crashed redrider954, haven't we ridden together after that?
Well I'm alive and I have a nice zipper shoulder for now. I'll post a pic or two later on when I can.
The surgey was, how did the Dr. word it, "a complete reconstruction of the a-c joint". They also removed fractured bone pieces that were enormous. Not bone splints, bone pieces.

WOW, Glad you're made out Keith, How much down time are you gonna have? I might have to drive on up there and take you to the tittie bar, strippers always give the gimps sympathy lap dance.
