Hi Swish. I'm sorry you got hurt and I wish you a speedy recovery. Bikes scare the hell out of me, mostly because there are too many asshole drivers out there. I have a good friend from high school who was severely injured years ago when a drunk driver slammed into her and her boyfriend, who she was riding behind. He died. She ended up in a coma with a shattered pelvis, several months of hospitalization, a permanent limp, and will never be able to have children.
So did the driver get in trouble for any kind of negligence, or just a freak accident?

Thanks for the replies guys, had a session on my rogue earlier playing with one hand and it wasn't terrible [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
[You must be logged in to view images.

Any compensation I get will be through his insurance but that's a ways off yet. Part of me sees this as just being really unlucky and wanting to keep riding but my family think its a sign I should go back to a car [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

my friend Jennifer used to ride a bike... after a lot of her friends getting in accidents on their bikes, she says "its not a matter of IF you'll get into an accident on your motorcycle... its a matter of WHEN."

Swish - NOBODY tells you this, but IF YOU TAKE THE RECOMMENDED DOSE OF PAINKILLERS EAT LOTS OF FIBER OR TAKE STOOL SOFTENER PILLS
YOu will be pooping asphalt after a day or two on opiates. Just what you don't need when your insides are already bruised up. I mean it's so bad that if you were on your motorcycle again and someone were to honk at you and yell "Watch it ass-mangler", you couldn't argue because you will indeed be a self-harm ass-mangler. Please, take care of your butthole. And each other. | ||

^^ that is true, verified by pharmakos.
get some stool softener or your shits are going to be straight up painful after a week on painkillers.

From a fellow rider, I wish you a speedy recovery Swish. Remember, there are 2 kinds of riders... those that have been down, and those that will go down. I've wrecked twice in the past, and one resulted in a broken arm, and the other was minor lowside. Either way, stay safe!
