I just got home yesterday fro spending 5 days in the hospital. I have 4 broken ribs. so no wheeling for me for a while. It started out as a nice couple day motorcycle ride was on the last stage hwy 134 about 2 miles down from Gore pass I took a turn to wide and put the bike in the soft shoulder. I went side ways and my wife went over me. I rolled along the pavement on the edge of my helmet. luckily I was in leather from neck to toes. I had on a face mask, glasses, and helmet.

so I will be off the trails till this heals. It was bad enough the drive back from Denver any bouncing would not be good.

HOW IS YOUR WIFE??????? sorry to hear this, bikes are dangerous!
 


















...:eek:...I am glad you are alright...:thumbsup: on wearing the safety gear as this story could have been a lot worse...:(

...x4 on how is the Mrs.' ...:scratch:
 






Hope you are both ok.

I don't miss my bike at all for that exact reason, things happen way too quickly and easily on bikes. Plus I got broadsided by a drunk driver once. That was reason enough for me to give up the 2 wheelers.
 






She is doing 1000% better then me. She has only bumps and bruises she got a clean bill of health from St.Anthonys in Denver. She has some sore muscles. She has been great through all this along with our 3 boys. they are all the best.
I think the bike has the least damage nothing that I saw( laying on my back waiting on the ambulance ) just some dirt wedged by the pegs. and clutch but I will evaluate at a later day.
