Man those pictures look real bad. Glad you weren't hurt worse than you were. Take it slow for several weeks with the rib injuries. Sucks about the bike.

:( Those are very disturbing pictures. I'm glad that you were able to survive that. That was a beautiful machine that you had. I hope that you recover quickly, and that your able to get back on the road soon. :bang:

As for the gal that ran over you. I hope she realizes what really just happened. :confused:

Shit Bill! Thank God Your still Around. I'm Sorry that happened! Take care of the wounds and get well soon. This is way too close to home! Not a good way to start a 3-day venture. Let me know if I can do anything for you. I'm down there next week.

Thanks Tommy ... Pictures are from the local newspaper..Last night in ICU I had a recurring dream of the accident....never been hit so hard in my life, my memory is of me glancing over my left shoulder and seeing the car headlight in my face and feeling the impact of the bumper slamming into my back, and seeing the morning light diminish as the car landed on top of me trapping me in darkness...once I realized I was still alive, I began pulling myself out from the pile of wreckage...am I really still alive or is this all a dream that i'm on the forum talking with friends ????

Holy crap, Five! Thank God you're apparently doing much better than those photos would suggest. It looks like it could've been a lot worse. We all wish you a speedy recovery. We're all here for you, dude.
