MOTORCYCLE CRASH EASTER 2010

(JACKSONVILLE, FL USA)

THESE PICTURES WERE TAKEN AFTER MY MOTORCYCLE CRASH EASTER 2010. I HIT A CONCRETE MEDIUM AT ABOUT 45 MPH AND I WAS NOT WEARING A HELMET. MY BIKE WENT ABOUT 60 FEET AND I WENT ABOUT 50. I NOW CONSIDER EVERY DAY AS A GOOD DAY AND YES, I STILL RIDE EVEN AFTER THE WRECK!

I SPENT 5 DAYS IN THE TRAUMA UNIT AT THE HOSPITAL.

THE CAUSE OF THE WRECK WAS THAT I WAS PASSING A CAR IN AN AREA WHERE I SHOULDN'T HAVE. I HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT MYSELF FOR THE WRECK AND THE INJURIES THAT RESULTED FROM IT.

From the webmaster:

HEY RANDAL, IN SPITE OF THE HORRIFIC INJURIES TO YOUR HEAD IT LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT LUCKY. I'M SAD TO SAY THAT I'VE KNOWN BIKERS WITH LESS DAMAGE TO THEIR BODIES AFTER A CRASH THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT. I'M GLAD TO KNOW THAT YOU NOT ONLY MADE IT THROUGH BUT HAVE RECOVERED.

THANKS FOR SENDING IN THE PICTURES. LOOKING AT THEM IS A REAL REMINDER OF WHAT CAN HAPPEN IF WE AREN'T CAREFUL. GLAD YOU ARE OK AND ARE STILL HERE TO SHARE THE TALE OF THIS MOTORCYCLE CRASH EASTER 2010.

YOU DON'T MENTION HOW YOUR BIKE CAME THROUGH THE WRECK...WERE YOU ABLE TO SALVAGE IT OR WAS IT COMPLETELY TOTALED? WHO WAS YOUR INSURANCE WITH AND HOW DID THEY TREAT YOU? I HAVE HEARD SOME HORROR STORIES ABOUT HOW SOME INSURANCE COMPANIES RIPPED PEOPLE OFF AND DIDN'T WANT TO PAY TO FIX THEIR MOTORCYCLES AFTER A WRECK AND IT HELPS TO KNOW WHICH MOTORCYCLE INSURANCE COMPANIES TREAT PEOPLE FAIRLY.
