    Thank you my friends for the prayers and good wishes.

    I'm getting P.M.S. in a bad way!(Parked Motorcycle Syndrome) Symptoms are the same as the female version. Mobility inside the house is painful and slow. My wife has turned into quite the inventor. She took my deathtrap of a walker and turned it into a useful and safer method of transport.
    She placed a strong board across the frame and then placed a thick pad of packing material on top of that and then used duct tape to hold it all together. She says that I'm rubbing off on her. I'll snap a photo of it and post it on here. The lady is a genius in training.

    So sorry to hear that, Random one.
    Slippage sucks.
    Give yourself a couple months and hopefully you'll be right as rain.
    I carry a stainless alloy rod implant in my left tibia from an ATC mishap many years ago. it aches a little sometimes on the colder days, but surprisingly has never set off an airport security scanner.

    Good to hear this wasn't worse for you or your bike.
    Heal quick!

    Surgery is set for 10-6-2015

    Went to the Dr. today for a M.R.I. of the ankle. Busted up worse than I suspected. The heel bone is broken clean away from the foot and the Tibia and Fibia both broken from ankle joint. Screws and plates and at least one rod are getting installed.
    I'm not nervous at all. I found out that he is a fisherman and he likes to go fishing for Crappie. So do I, and we traded phone numbers of guides we use for the areas we fish. I told him I will remind him this not the time to use his fillet skills.

    Got my first chance to see my F6B yesterday. Other than predictable scratches on the crash bars only a very minor discoloration on the bottom of chrome.

    Surgery in 4:00 hours. I'm ready for this so I can start healing and get ready to ride again!

    Six to eight weeks from today the cast comes off and rehab begins.

    Well Wishes

    No praying here, hadn't done that since I was a very young, but it doesn't stop me from directly wishing you a rapid recovery partner. I know your anger and pain.
