Had a car turn right in front of me and I ran into right rear passenager door. Was Only doing about 55 or 50 but it threw me 25 ft onto the road. Broke Rt ankle, Lt thumb, shattered Rt elbow, broke Rt clavicle and compression fracture of L1 in my back. Recovering but rt elbow will not be as before. Dangerous roads out there so be carefull. Bike was totaled.

Sounds and looks bad - hope everything turns out OK for you.

Kind of puzzled though - if the car turned right in front of you, was he heading in the same direction as you? if so he would have turned off your road onto a side road (did he not indicate?) if he was coming the other way he would have turned off the road away from you - so no probs there. Or, did he turn into the road you were heading along from a side road? Just curious - really hope you get better soon.

Bob I'm sorry about you accident. By the looks of the pictures, you are a lucky man to be able to talk about. Wish you the best on healing and getting up and going again.          Dave

I was lucky and had many prayers!!!

We were heading towards each other and he decided to turn to his left causing me to hit the right side of his car. He turned so close to me I didn't even have time to hit my breaks. Clear day and stright road and I was with another biker and he just says he didn't see me. It was all the other bike could do to stay clear.

Thanks for the well wishes!!!

Bob,

Sorry about your crash.  Sounds like you were pretty lucky to come away with only the injuries you have... could have been much worse.

We will pray for a quick recovery!

[erniezap]

Well that certainly sucks!  Bike doesn't look too good but very glad that you will heal.  That could have been a lot worse!

[Keats]

We wish you a speedy recovery.

The good side of it, you get to pick out a new bike?

It certainly could have been worse (even though it sounds Bad enough)

Sounds like you did not even have time to hit brakes. (not that would have helped much)

You must have cleared the Car?

[MIKEYTEE]

Speedy recovery to you Bob. You never know when it's going to happen, but thank goodness your around to talk about it.
May you have a full recovery.

Sorry to hear, hope you heal fast! It sucks when our bikes get damaged, but they can be replaced, or built better than new. Good luck keep us posted.

Ouch!  I think you're lucky to be alive, pal!  Elbow looks rough.  Glad you made it through.  You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.  Same for the wife since she's the one that gets to take care of you over next few weeks.  You both have a lot to be thankful for!!!

Get well soon,

V
