    I should have pm'd u........ they explained that and checked that box on my discharge summary. Keeping, things clean. I'm f'en hurting tonight. My ribs are beginning to hurt, alot of bruising starting to occur. The swelling was a plum size right after the accident. That has moved up and down my leg since. I haven't even unloaded the quads from my truck yet.

    Ouch. Are you scheduled for any follow up? With the Family doc?

    I feel for you. My boys dropped my KLR650 three times today while learning to ride it, on slow turns in grass, nothing major. I bought this bike because it had hand, engine, radiator and side guards already installed. I figured they'd be dropping it in the early stages of learning.

    I was helping my 17yo when he dropped it on a small hillside. I tried to get on where he dropped it and restart it and ride it to a level spot for him and I dropped it in exactly the same place he did. That bike is tall and dad ain't so graceful any more when he falls. I don't look like you do in these photos but at this point in life I'm not supposed to be dropping and picking up 650cc Enduros.

    I will schedule a followup tues morn. The holiday kinda screwed things up. Since an accident last memorial day weekend put me down half the summer, and another incident this year, the wife is demanding next year on memorial day weekend, that I wear bubblewrap. Lol

    I bet. Luckily I don't remember much of the 3 days after my 4wheeler crash. That morphine is some good stuff!

    Flipped my big bear back over front chasing a cow. Skinned my chin(no helmet) and compound fractured both bones in my left forearm and some broke in my wrist. Spent 3 days in the hospital due to fear of infection, I had a high fever.
    I thank the Lord I didn't break my neck and that it happened right in front of the house.

    Yea
    I've rolled, buried , bent & drowned them.
    Takes some of the fun out of it & usually leaves a mark or 2 on the driver. Like on you
    & worse

    I don't heal fast like I did yeas ago,
    so I go slow & easy now-a-days :)

    Well, with the help of vicodin and the wife, we got the quads down off the truck. As seen in the picture, the fender cracked (I have another one anyway) and the brake handle bent. That's really all I'm seeing. Gear oil was leaking out, but I think that it's because it was upside down.
