And that's all that counts.

[six fiddy]

[Dirty_Sanchez]

Sorry to hear about the mishap.

Dirty

[I_FLY_LOW]

Damn man, hate to hear about this!
Prayers sent your way for a speedy recovery.

[Fitty]

Holy crap Aaron! Really sorry to hear this. Here's to a quick and complete recovery.

[Timo]

Oh, Aaron

I'm so sorry. my prayers as well for a speedy recovery!

[2Evil4U]

This is mona, Aaron was admitted to icu hopefully only
for the night but looks like he is going to be here for a few
days, your more than welcome to stop by and see him
but I took his phone so he won't be posting for a few days
anyway. He has a broken collarbone, shoulderblade, a couple
of ribs and a punctured lung. Not giving him to much hell
he is beating himself up because he screwed up. I'll save
that for later.

[Shaq Diesel]

what room number? The BR general on bluebonnet?

[mattc]

Thanks for the update. The good thing about the ICU is that you know he has top notch care while he's in there.

[Ritten]

Thanks for the update Mona. Prayers sent for a speedy recovery!

[BradyM]

First off, sorry to hear about the accident. Hope you have a speedy recovery. And second, out of everyone I've met on this site, you're the last one I would of thought would be in a wreck. Just goes to show you REALLY have to watch out while on a bike. Good luck and prayers sent.

I agree with Brady. And I'm glad to hear that it was not worse. Sounds like the gear did its job. Good luck on the recovery.

[Zeek]

Good luck and hope you have a speedy recovery.

laynfrm, give hime some tips on wiping with bunged up arms. :D

[Juice]

I just hard from Aaron. He said that he thinks that he is in room 2221.





what room number? The BR general on bluebonnet?

[thedrizel]

Damn! Last time I checked this thread it was just a little minor get off.

Prayers to you sir and your family.

If y'all plan a visit or something, please someone let me know of it.

[2Evil4U]

thanks for the thoughts. doing better. hopefully getting out tomorrow. mom & dad coming in tomorrow. mainly just pissed at myself for being impatient. main thing is only injuries are mine. insurance will take care of the rest

[Ritten]

Weren't you and Austin just discussing the number of times that bike has gone down??? Looks like you'll have to add one. LOL.

Glad you're doing better man.

[scooterhose]

Sorry to hear it! Take care man!

[Britton]

Shit man!!!! I hope you get to feeling better. I'll call you as soon as I get back to the states on the 29th.

[Klantz]

Just went by the hospital and saw Aaron. He's doing well and in good spirits. It is room 2221 at the BR General on Bluebonnet. He hopes to be going home in a day or so.

Hope you feel better soon buddy.

[Navaho6]

Whoa!! That's a bummer.

Hope you heal fast, Aaron.

[2Evil4U]

going to give it one more day for the lung. going pretty well otherwise. off morphine and working with flexeril and oxycodone.

still hurts to move arm but no danger of worsening the fractures if i have to move it.

stu stopped by this morning.he's looking good in his recovery.

thanks to everyone for the thoughts and prayers. it means a lot to mona and me.

[mattc]

Good to hear its going smooth for ya!

[Doug]

Just learned of this yesterday. Prayers for a speedy recovery bro...

[2Evil4U]

being discharged shortly. hopefully home in a couple hours. no restrictions other than, "take it easy" so that's nice.

Thanks again to all.

[Fitty]

Sounds good. Glad it wasn't worse. Did they give you any idea of the recuperation period?

[cbbr]

That's great news. Of course the problem with that instruction is that "easy" is relative.:D

[Dirty_Sanchez]

That's great news. Of course the problem with that instruction is that "easy" is relative.:D

Yeah, at least the "Easy" window is up for user discretion and lies in the eye of the beholder unlike a when your gal tells you she's a "little" pregnant or has just a "little" bit of the herpes.

Dirty

[king4456]

Aarron, you should be ready for Matt's camp this weekend no problem. Just pickin man, take it easy and get better

[2Evil4U]

Sounds good. Glad it wasn't worse. Did they give you any idea of the recuperation period?

Doc said typical bone heal is 6-8 weeks, but I should start feeling better much sooner than that.

[2Evil4U]

Campout is doubtful. Mom & dad flew down yesterday after changing their plans, so I'll be spending time with them.

It looks like I may have worked out a deal with mom & Mona that should allow me to keep the bikes. More details as it evolves.

It's good to be home in any case.

[ka5ysy]

Hi Aaron, Hope you are doing better.

The doc is correct on the 6 week healing for ribs, but from recent experience I can tell you that you will still feel them 3 or 4 months. I was still pretty active and actually appeared in court with some clients the day after they sent me home, however the ribs still let me know after the 4 months that they were still "fixing" from time to time. I can t really put a time on when I didnt notice them anymore, but one day I realized they were normal again.

You poked a hole in a lung which is actually somewhat common from what the doc who worked on me said. They spend a good bit of time taking MRI and xrays to be sure I didnt have that problem and actually had a surgeon on standby .

Oh.. you will definitely fall in love with your pillow to hug when you sneeze or cough. Laughing is not recommended either !

Get well soon dude !

BTW Which bike were you on ?

[I_FLY_LOW]

Speaking of which, I may have missed a post or something, where is your bike?

[THIBDRZ]

Get well soon!

[2Evil4U]

Bike is at Guy's. We're going to pick it up shortly.

Was on the BMW. Don't think there was too much damage. We'll see later today.

[I_FLY_LOW]

geeze... I hope they know how to tow them properly...

Take care, man... heal up quick!

[Manimal]

Glad you made it man, and hope you heal up quickly!

[2Evil4U]

picked it up this morning. they towed it well as there is no damage other than what i did to it.

Basically, both side bags are tweaked & the right side engine guards need to be replaced. otherwise, it started right up and didn't even smoke.

going to call progressive today and see what they'll do for the parts & gear. hopefully they'll put it right back where it was.

These things are tough.

[cbbr]

IIRC my Progressive policy covers $1000 in gear and anything on the bike that gets messed up.

[haulazz]

get well soon---hollar if you need anything

[2Evil4U]

Bike's at Hebert's for fixing. Progressive is so far so good. Gear will be covered. From my quick estimate, I'm betting around $3500 to replace the scuffed guards & bags.

Oh yeah. Thanks to Juice for the help moving the bike from where we parked the trailer to the shop. Mom & dad appreciated it.

Last gear comment: scoff at my chaps if you want, but they're totally trashed and I didn't even end up with any marks on my pants from bouncing down Siegen.

[cbbr]

Congrats! Good to hear that Progressive is doing what they should. And there are a couple of guys in my building that look at me funny when I am putting on all of the gear as they put on half helmets, but I think that we all know the end to that story.

[Juice]

No problem buddy!

[Shaq Diesel]

progressive is a good company. they treated me right after geico tried every dirty trick in the book to not cover my bike. if they would stop trying to rape me to insure the R1 I would move it over to them as well.

[2Evil4U]

Got the estimate yesterday. I'm pretty happy with it so far. Should have the check by the weekend. Then it's just waiting on the parts.

[mattc]

Progressive has done right by me in a couple of not-at-fault wrecks.


How are you healing up Aaron?

[2Evil4U]

Slowly. I'm starting to be able to move my shoulder a bit on it's own. I'm amazed at how interconnected the muscles of the shoulder and back are. If I lean forward and look at the ground my whole arm catches on fire. Pretty odd. Got a follow up on Monday for the pneumo-thorax and to check out my ankle. We'll see how it goes.

[ka5ysy]

I went and visited with your GSA today. Those bars and the bags did well in preventing major damage. The only thing else that seems broken is the right front turn signal lens.

Keep healing, and take it slow. I can verify, as my wife always tells me, "it's all hooked together!"

Doug

[2Evil4U]

That was it. I wasn't going very fast but everything sacrificial protected the important stuff.

[Britton]

Peogessive is going to get tired of fixing that bike! That's who I had insured it with when I tried to kill it. They did right by me!!!

[2Evil4U]

Looks to be about $2600 this time. They got off cheap!

[2Evil4U]

Follow up went well. Pneomothorax is about gone. Doc couldn't find the broken rib, soisn't totally sure what cuased the lung puncture. Collar bone is crakced but straight. Shoulder blade is another story. Broken clean in half and the top half looks to be rotated about 90 degrees clockwise. (I'm sick to death of doctors looking at my X-Rays and saying, "My God that must be unbelievably painful." when it's really not at all.)

Top that all off with finding out that I fractured the lower tip of the smaller long-bone in my right leg in the first get off and I'm starting to not want to go to the doctor's office anymore.

Oh well. Might as well get it all over with at once.

[Shaq Diesel]

so you're gonna have surgery?

[2Evil4U]

I kinda figured the ortho would recommend something, but to this point, no.

I've got another follow up in 4 weeks so, since I've blown my out of pocket max i'll ask again then. Still doesn't hurt, though.

[2Evil4U]

Still no serious pain. Down to Advil & Aleve.

Parts have arrived. I stopped by to pay for them on my way home from work so she should be good as new pretty soon.

[I_FLY_LOW]

Glad to hear you're feeling better, Aaron!

[Juice]

How you doing buddy?

[2Evil4U]

Getting better. I've probably managed to get about 50% use of my arm back so far. It's making me grumpy as it doesn't seem to be getting better as fast as I want it to, but I have to remind myself that I'm less than four weeks from the crash at this point. Hopefully it will come back fully, but I'm a little concerned about some weird muscular/nerve pain that kicks in on and off. Doesn't seem to be fracture related, but will really cause me to take notice when it decides to go.

Should be picking the bike up tomorrow. Hopefully delivering it to it's new home later this week.

[Juice]

Does the new owner happen to live on the north-shore by any chance?

[2Evil4U]

I had heard there was someone in that neighborhood looking for a nice low-mileage, never wrecked, immaculately clean 1200.

[Fitty]

Do we need to do a ride to eat to Slaughter?

[Britton]

.....nice low-mileage, never wrecked, immaculately clean 1200.

You've got one of those for sale?

[Juice]

That old girl has been on her back more times than Britney Spears and Paris combined. Congrats Austin!

[I_FLY_LOW]

ok.. hmm...
what goes around, comes around??
not assuming anything, you still have the 800, Austin?

[Britton]

I felt sorry for the old gal. First I tried to kill her, then I sold her to Aaron, and he tried to kill her. I figure I owe her.

Philip, sold the 800 this weekend to buy the old gal back from Aaron.

[Juice]

I gotta find something to ride out west before next fall.

[I_FLY_LOW]

wow!
well, congrats, and welcome back! lol
M&G around Aaron's direction, this week?

[I_FLY_LOW]

I gotta find something to ride out west before next fall.

you haven't owned a dr650, yet.........

[Juice]

Not sure i could sit on a thumper for 6000 miles, but it would be a hoot in Moab and Colorado. You looking to sell Phil?
you haven't owned a dr650, yet.........

[Britton]

You got a DR650 for sale???

[I_FLY_LOW]

Yep.. everything's for sale... klr, bandit, dr... old pair of saw horses, kitchen sink... act now, while supplies last.... lol

[Juice]

Post up some details, i know of a few people looking.

[Britton]

Shoot me the details on the DR650.

[2Evil4U]

With new responsibilities come great decisions. Austin is unable to buy my(his) beloved GSA because of new job commitments. Not a problem, as even for me, family has to come first. This is opening up a world of opportunity for some lucky rider out there.

See Classifieds for details.

[Juice]

You going to keep the Buell?

[2Evil4U]

Yep. Buell is still staying here. Mona's OK with local rides with the group but wants me to curtail the lone-ranger commuting and traveling for now. I can handle that.

[Juice]

I can understand that cause "If momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy"

good, cause in every for sale add you posted i was gonna add the large size version of your avatar to hinder the sale.



austin, was your 800 yellow? i met a guy in laplace at the Shell right by the bonnet carre spillway that bought a used one from heberts a week or so ago.

[2Evil4U]

LOL.

That would be Stuntman's old one I'd assume.

[2Evil4U]

I think I'm going to get a vanity plate for the Strat.

Whadaya think of : MSMYBYK

[Britton]

Yep, that was my 800. Hope the guy doesn't kill himself. He had already dropped it twice in the first week!

[2Evil4U]

Two drops in a week? What's your point.....? ;-)

[2Evil4U]

Ouchy.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/2evil4u/exp0000.jpg

The docs still can't believe that this didn't really hurt.

[2Evil4U]

If you're going to be in a cage, it at least ought to be a cool cage:

I couldn't remember the relevance until about 3:40... then I nearly spit milk on my keyboard.

[2Evil4U]

Never seen that one before. :D

His is a sedan, though. Definitely lame.

[2Evil4U]

Update: Ticket was dismissed.

Now if I can get the bike sold, I'll be done.

(Buell is still running well, though.)

[2Evil4U]

Update, Update.

Did deep inspection of the Nolan N-103. No impact damage, just scuffing.

Ordered a set of new shields for it and should be back in business.

[Juice]

Great to hear, now lets ride!!!

I hear ya. I'm off until 1/4. So, barring keeping Mona occupied, I will be riding this and next week.
