We were practicing today on our track, and it didn't go quite right.

She was practicing a little double-double, after about the tenth time through it, her hand slipped off the throttle at just the wrong time and she cased the last one real bad. The damage is a broken steering stem, flex bars are bent a little, and the plastic is pretty roughed up. Her elbows don't look the best either!! Thats what she gets for riding a Honda. She was more than happy to ride my ATK back up to the house while I tried to ride hers back while kicking the tires to try to steer it. Gotta love it.

OMG, that is going to hurt for a long time. Road rash is the worst...even if it she got it from the dirt. Been there done that...not good. And its on a part of her body that moves a lot. Ouch.

Those are halls of destruction pics. Seems there are more human destruction pics nowadays than quads. Ice those bruses down . Hope there is no permanent damage.

She is pretty sore this morning. Where she landed was hard packed clay, so not as bad as concrete, but not as good as dirt either. I can see from the handle bar imprints in the ground that it rolled end for end twice. I only saw one and I was heading for my quad to get out there. She is a transcriptionist (typing medical records), so work might be painful for a few days. Oh well, if you want to play, sometimes you have to pay.

Hope she is feeling better, but get her back on the track very very soon, the longer she waits the harder it will be to
hit the jumps hard.

Roger,

You'll have to keep reminding her that if you would have came to the race it wouldn't have happened

Its funny, she is in the shower right now and I keep hearing cussing. She must be using soap! She went to Walgreens today and spent $65 on bandages and ointments and all kinds of gay crap. Women.
I do hope she gets on and rides right away. True, the sooner, the better. Whenever I do something like that, I like to get back on ASAP, just so my mind doesnt' start messing with me. You know what I mean.
