Unhappy Well it finally happened

Been riding for a couple years and everybody kept telling me that everyone goes down eventually. Well it happened yesterday. Luckily I was wearing all my gear and ended up with a broke ankle and collar bone a thrashed jacket and f****d up helmet that I'm pretty sure saved my life. Y'all be careful on those back roads and keep your gear on.

Re: Well it finally happened

The important thing is that you're alive. Anything else is replaceable. Good luck in your recovery.
