Default I'm back and almost 100%

So may 14th i was heading home from work on 95 passing sample road....when i had a semi prolly 45 ft in front of me blow a tire. A peice of rubber caught my bike and i woke up 83 hours later in the er feeling like a zombie. I still dont know what happened. I had ruptured a disk in my back broke my femur shatterd my collar bone and broke a wrist...well over 3 months in the hover round i finally am able to get back in my garage...my poor poor truck has been waiting for this new motor and axle swaps so i finally feel up to it...just wanted to let you guys know where i went and that i am back and the dana 60 is going in tonight and the 408 and aps tranny will be in this weekend...
I feel like i lost part of my soul not being able to turn a wrench. I got the ok from Dr.roth last night and i was in my garage all night i felt whole again....now i have real motivation to finish my truck...you never do know when your time will come i am only 25 and i got alot of places to go and tons of **** to see......glad to be back guys

Damn man, that sucks.
Glad to hear you're better. I had been wondering where you got off to, thought you left us something.
Ya know, you could have at least had the common courtesy to tell us before now.

Glad you're better. That's one of the reasons I quit riding. I can ride just fine, but I can't control other stuff around me. Best of luck on your continued improvement.

Glad you're back, sorry you got whacked and glad you didn't get croaked by a diesel dummy.

Have fun wrenching!

Glad you're allright. I've been riding almost 20 years now and have been lucky more than once. Florida can be a crazy place to ride- especially 95.
