Title: Re: Attention Usual Suspects Post by: Beattie_Yoo on June 17, 2008, 08:12:40 AM Thanks to all US for their support and concern, i do appreciate it very much....
Long story short< i was involved in an accident on my way home from riding with PatrickS2R and RCpete, i was hit by a car making a U-turn over the double yellow line on the off ramp of a PIP exit. I was taken to the emergency room in an ambulance. it was not a hit and run, the police were there and a full police report was filed. my bike is in bad shape but repairable. I was wearing full gear, which saved me big time, the bike flipped over and landed on my right foot, but didnt break it. I have a badly sprained ankle and torn up ligaments in my foot. I will not be riding for at least a month. You can never be too safe out there... if it wasn't for my gear, ide still be in the hospital. Always be prepared, you never know. this is my 3rd accident in the last year, the 1st and 2nd were my own fault...this time it was someone else. all 3 accidents were in full gear. putting my bike back together will be a fun project, ive gotten so comfortable on my RC that i cant think of anything that could replace it right now. Cant wait to get back out on the road with all of you guys Be safe out there. we live in the worst possible area in the country to be on motorcycles, way to many cars on the road. be alert, be very very alert.

I rode the other day to my partners house(business)'because my car was getting fixed, w/just my helmet, gloves, and jacket. It was early in the morning and I was late, and tired. Besides feeling like a squid. I kept thinking to myself that this I when accidents happen. Good thing you had on all your gear. I know now I will wear it no matter what.
Here,s to a speedy recovery. If you need a good lawyer let me know.My GF is one but she knows some good personal injury ones. There was probably one following you to the hospital anyway.
