30 years back
three decades back i was hit by a lady that turned into me, did not even have time to cuss, skid marks were only (6) six feet long and then moved wrong. i had my leg crushed both the tib and fib were in very bad shape, (many small parts) if there had been ANY soft tissue (nerves, mussel, blood veins/arteries, laments, etc)damage i would have lost my leg that am.
as it was it took three times on the table and two steel plates, first one broke due to NO bone growth. they installed a batt to encourage this. but after (9) nine months the Dr's said i could keep the leg.
another two years before i could go back to work.
and within 10 years i had a bad case of arthritis. and now thirty years later i do not know what it is like living with NO pain,
it was a very cold am so i was bundled up, and my helmet had a spiderweb of cracks in the back would have split my head open if i did not have it on. and i was only doing about 30mph and she was about the same.
so this video brings back memories.
i live to ride and i ride to live.....please do the same.
