Well sometime between 9:30 and 10 AM Central time I had the unpleasant experience of a tank slapper and went down with the bike. I was towing my Redneck Redtec1 trailer. I believe the trailer saved me from flipping and a trip to the hospital. I rode it out and laid her down staying on the low side. I was on wet pavement and running 70 mph. There was a wiggle then straight into a full blown tank slapping violent fishtailing ride. I got it slowed down to 55 then laid her down.
I did get a couple of raspberries on my arm and butt. Otherwise no major injuries or cuts. My bike didn't fair as well but I was able to ride it towing the trailer to Bumpas HD Jackson TN. A heartfelt THANK YOU goes out to FlaHeatWave Ed and Jaynae for all they have done making sure I was okay. Also Brett Henson and Jim Castellano of Bumpas HD for getting me in the shop and back on the road safely. They were the best and I will recommend them to anyone in the Jackson TN area.
My trip to Eureka Springs continues and we will be there tomorrow afternoon.
Thanks to all that have been a part to this day and offered assistance for whatever I need. That is what makes this group so special.
I was told to buy a lottery ticket today and also that an angel was sitting on my shoulder. I do believe the Good Lord was with me today.
Mike
