We need to say prayers for Nick, (straightjacket), Has had an accident. Hit a deer on his bike. Messed up pretty bad. I talk to him briefly a couple days ago but haven't been able to contact him since. Don't know many details but he said he had 2 broken legs, broken pelvis, broken ribs, punctured lung and more. I will try to contact him again tomorrow. Please ride safe everyone.

He posted a couple days ago Toby and has been active posting since then. http://www.yamahastarstryker.com/index.php/topic,4156.0.html . Very sad but glad he is ok.

omg thats awful.....I will surely be thinking of him and his recovery.

 

[straightjacket]

Thanks Toby, I didn't see that you had posted this.
It's actually pretty funny. I was in the hospital early on, got this phone call from Toby and was thinking man how'd he hear about this sooo soon? Hardly anybody new at that point? Turns out he butt dialed me, or I him? I was really loopy on pain meds at that point. I'm doing better now, will give you a call tomorrow.

I'm feeling alot better just being at home,. The wifeys gettin all the paperwork going. I actually have really good insurance for ounce! We even have the Reach coverage so that shouldn't be too bad either!

Joe - Dont know if I'm even gonna ride again at this point,,,,, Ya Right! I'm trying to get ahold of the insurance guy to find out where I stand in this. I'll be building something for sure just dont know what condition the bikes in?

 

[toby]

Ok good to hear your doing better. I was getting worried ,was gona ride down there and check on you. Not ride anymore? ya right.!!!
Every one be careful out there, we see 10 maybe 15 deer any time we leave this hill in all of 30 miles. Gonna get a hunting license and start taking care of that problem. lol.

Good to hear you're on the mend. I'm sure with those injuries, it may be a bit before you're back on a bike, but know it will happen. Best wishes, man.

 

[straightjacket]

Elle - I see you got your bike all modded up, looks good!

 

[kraaazymike]

Glad to see youre back home! Never under estimate the power of your own bed. Or a good shower for that matter.... LOL

 

[The_Joker]

Wishing you the best SJ......sorry to hear the news........

I've tended to avoid my standard back road route to and from work during dusk and dawn hours, I've seen too many deer right on the side of the roads.......Always worried about them jumping out in front of me, especially around blind curves......


Wishing you a full (and as quick as can be expected) recovery......

 

[sci85]

Man does that ever suck. Good to hear you survived but you paid a high price for because of it. I had one hit our car this summer and the amount of damage it did to the car really spooked me when I thought about the effects of hitting a bike.

Get well soon.

 

[galo8]

hope you have a speedy recovery man !!!

 

[wlfpak65]

[backinblack]

Glad to hear you are on the mend! Hoping you have a speedy recovery!

 

[strykerjan]

Glad you are on the mend. Dangerous animals over there. You would be seriously unlucky to hit one here.

Maybe you need to move to here.

 

[ssgtbarnes]

Could have been a lot worse brother and I'm glad you're home healing up.
