Wow.

Thanks Ace, you've helped me make up my mind to sell my bike. Wife and kids
very pleased.


Surely you were already aware that accidents on motorcycles can result
in serious injury and even death? What difference does this new one
make to your decision?

- multiple BWS and LWS(?) fractures (to the spine) without
neurological damage, extension injury to Thorax9 ventral and traumatic
inflammation to Thorax12
- rib fractures right side ribs 2-9 ( at the front, next to the
sternum, although at least one is fractured further round as well)
- haematopnumothorax right side (bleeding into the chest cavity, from
the broken bones and surrounding tissue).
- Pleuraerguss left ( fluid into the left chest cavity, not spotted
until several days later)
- fractured sternum
- blunt abdominal injuries
- Liver haematoma segment 7


FFS you don't do things by half's

Treatment entailed a cright-side chest drain on arrival, a left-side
one a week later


They used gold taps I hope.

Anyway glad to see you're back, take it easy.

So, I'm barrelling along a lovely country road on my way to work -
long straight followed by tight right-hander, so lots of beans being
applied.

clumsy tit!


Yupp. After 30 years of "It'll never happen to me" I've become aware
of just how easy it can be. Or possible, just how lucky I've been to
get away with it for so long.


and as porl pointed out, a little ironic to happen the day after you
made your "I ride on the road as if it were a racetrack" comment...


Don't think I'm not aware of the irony.

good to see you back :-)

........and the bike?


No idea. Don't even know where it is. Looked like it was just plastic
and the rear end, so probably repairable. But I don't really GAF, to
be perfectly honest.


If you're not that bothered, I'll have it off you for a tenner, and I'll
even collect.
