Down Goes the Motorcycle
Brookenstein:
J was hit by an SUV on his way to work this morning. The A hole changed lanes into him, hit him, then fled the scene. The only person to stop was several cars back and didn't get a plate # or anything. He was taken by ambulance to the hospital. He has a broken clavical, bum knee, and road rash from head to toe.
I forgot to ask the dr how soon he can hot tub. I'm guessing not for a few days. At least he's doped up on demerol and vicodin.
Poor guy. Took over a month to get the brand new bike fixed and now this happens. We are hoping its totalled, but I'm doubting we can be that lucky.
Looks like we might have to get his old Z working, so I don't have to drive him to work everyday.
I'm having a pity party, if anyone wants to join. :)

Add a tear from me, that sucks!!
Brewman:
Sorry to hear that. Hope he heals up okay. Was he wearing any protective clothing?
Helmet, jacket, boots, gloves, etc?
I'm too scared to ride without that stuff, even when it's hot out.
Hopefully they'll total the bike. It's amazing how expensive it is to get that stuff repaired. If there is any frame damage it'll likely be a total loss. Good thing, maybe.
That bike has some bad juju.
Brookenstein:
He had his helmet and gloves on. They are a total loss, as is his nylon ski jacket type coat, his work shoes (slip on black leather dress shoes), all the clothes he was wearing, and his motorcycle bakcpack.
I didnt get a good look at the bike as it was down when I was at the scene. I had it impounded by the police and will deal with it later (hopefully tomorrow).
I'm going to take pics of everything tomorrow (hopefully the bike too).
Gomboman:
That's too bad Brooke. Was he on the 91 freeway? How fast was he going when he got hit? I hope everything works out for J and his bike.
