Feel the burn!!!!1

<< < (3/3)

First off, is the bike okay?

And second, would the pants have helped? Looks like you smashed it, yeeeez. Hopefully no breaks.

I ride a moto guzzi v11 to work when I can. With pants when I can, but sometimes I go running early and end up at work after.

whitewater:
yea bike ok, not sure how..LOL

Yes I always wear pants.

The pics were from when I got home.

Happened 60 miles into a 200 mile ride.

Not a motorcycle injury, and not to me, but my lead guy told me about an incident at the last place he worked here in town. I won't mention the name of the place, but it started with Adida. One of the idiots working on press stuck his arm between the pallets while the press was running. It was between a print head and a flash head. The machine indexed, broke his arm and pinned it between the flash and pallet. Said it was a compound fracture and burned to the bone. They shut the facility down for the day because it smelled so bad. I have no reason to doubt him, but I'm sure some will.

That didn't sound good at all, but chit happens and you learn a lesson like I did LOL, burn is starting to heal, I can tell my age as something like this back in my younger days would not have slowed me down one step.
