08' Yam yzf-r6 (track only racebike)
14' ktm 500exc

The classics 2-3 times a year...I rode a 2017 Ducati ST4s until a Toyota Tundra ran a stop sign and ran me over. I've been riding all my life and always had an escape route...this guy accelerated through the stop sign...no way to avoid. Ride safe!

Holy.. what happened and are you fine ?
I’m good buddy
A car pulled out on me I was doing about 60 mph :sneaky:
I hit him then shot across the road and hit a bus stop
I broke my back in 3 places
6 ribs
Cracked sternum
Collapsed lung
Cracked shoulder blade
Ripped spleen
Tore the nerves out my left arm
Shattered hip
Snapped shin
Shattered foot
And to top it off I found out I had Covid
That was 9 months ago and I’m kind of back on my feet 👊🏻

Wow dude that looks bad have you fully recovered ?
Don’t know if I will ride again I’ve still got the 600rr , I want to but Don’t think I can put my family through it again I know every time I disappear down the road my wife will be in bits ☹️
I’ve got to have my hip replaced in a few months not looking forward to it
Did you get back in the saddle
