And my sister is very blissfully married and thoroughly spoiled rotten.  They are a sickeningly cute couple.

OOooofff...Nasty little digit!  Make sure you get medicated laminated gauze covers for your road rash, and have ample bacetracin (sp) applied...Nothing worse than changing bandages and the skin coming back off!

Hey Rod,

That really sucked to watch you go down, and I was trying to not watch so as to avoid following you off so I really cannot say for sure what I saw.   I guess the burn on the finger turned out to be worse than the broken ankle in terms of treating it, and we thought was just some skin at the time.   All in all I am impresed the way you took a bad situation in stride and you somehow manage to just keep your spirits, as well as the jokes coming.  I thought that was too funny when you later joked I would be hearing from your lawyer with your alternate version of events in which case I had bumped your rear tire and sent you off the road.  All kidding aside, hopefully we can all take something positive away from that experience and it really could have been a lot worse, so we are lucky we still have you around.

Looking forward to your full and speedy recovery,

+Whatever for the silver burn cream.  They used something similar on my aforementioned hand burn.  Silver works as an antibacterial agent (if I remember right), and it's way important to protect burns from infection.  As Em noted there's about 0 ability for your body to fight even simple stuff in that area right now.

Ok....you asked for it

Charred to perfection

DUDE!  That's gross.

I look forward to your full recovery and getting back together for Rhodeside and future rides.  And, to seeing some new mods to your bike, not that you needed any excuses.

Good to hear.

Just remember if/when it comes time to take the bits out - ask to keep the pieces, they will let you.  The plate that was in my hand made a nifty key chain  [thumbsup]

One thing I noticed from the pic is that there is a negative bank on the turn where I ran off. (I'm not sure if that's the right term, but what I mean is that it is sloped downhill towards the soft shoulder, rather than banked uphill like  a racetrack turn). I think that combined with me staring at the drop-off and thinking "Man I sure hope I don't go into that...oops now I'm heading right for it" were major contributors

It's called an off camber turn.
