I'm really sorry to hear this!

I assume it's the same for others....when I read the details of somebody going down it kind of makes me relive the serious accident that I had in my early years on this forum that resulted in 2 1/2 months in the hospital, ten surgeries, etc. etc.    As banged up as I'm sure she's feeling right now, I'm just glad that she was able to go home....at least she can get some sleep instead of being woke up every two hours to get vitals.

Prayers up for her buddy for a speedy and complete recovery!

All my best thoughts to Donna and you Dave.  Both of you be well and here's hoping she heals fast (and that the trucking company has excellent insurance)  :drink: .

Very sobering! Wishing her a speedy recovery! Hopefully the trucking company took responsibility and is paying her bills.

Really hate to hear that Dave........sounds like she was very, very skilled. Going down anytime is bad, but on a crowded I-slab at 70mph and not be in hospital is more than luck. She probably never knew it some of her riding skills kicked in and helped. Hope she heals quickly.

Glad, so glad, to hear she will be okay. As we all know going down at those speeds could have been really really bad. Also sounds like she had some good protective gear on. Your family is in my prayers.

My wife could not understand why she could not ride it out.  Stated she hit drive shaft square just like she was taught.  Look at the two pictures of her front rim, and the one of her rear and she understood why she did not ride it out.
