This is why you should ALWAYS wear a fullface Helmet!

[Zuki Bandit]

OUCH dude, hope you have a speedy recovery!

[HungusMaximist]

Full helmet all the way bro, no fucken way I am gonna be wearing a half face any time soon.

Tempted on to do it on a scooter though.... nah, don't too it aye.

[bomma]

youch!! on the bright side that'll make for an awesome story time if you ever have kids/grand kids

[BANZAI]

Ouch...

Now it's hard for you to play Guitar or Violin!!!

I can't let that happen to me eh, fingers are most important parts with what I do to make a living...

Altho if it's one or two finger and not thumb, can work it out to play instrument like Django Reinhart did (he only had 3 finger I think and was the famous jazz guitarist back in the day)

Anyway heal well!!

My older brother is a surgeon and has seen a few poor souls missing the lower half of their face because they had been wearing a half-face helmet.

Good luck with the healing.

Is that bone you can see in the nuckle on the third shot?

yea thats the bone... it actually looks a bit better in those fotos because it had been cleaned out and shit, there is actually more bone exposed on the pinky but you can't see it in these shots because they've pulled the skin around to cover it up a bit! yea i'll never be tommy emanuel on the guitar now but i know a dude who plays pretty good and hes missing part of a finger.
cheers for all the well wishes!

[Magua]

That's nasty, man. Best of luck for your recovery.

[BIHB@0610]

Big hugs - looks awfully sore, poor you

Heal well! Hope you've got some good books. You'll be able to catch up on all that fabulous daytime TV - fyi Jeremy Kyle's a laugh and a half - 12.30 weekdays

[avgas]

I'm so proud of you.
Welcome to the club
So you getting looked after by the student nurses?




Oh an heal up quick too

[AllanB]

Glad you are OK - relatively.

So if you bang your face up wearing a open helmet then what to they attach that to for a few weeks to grow the skin????

"Hey dude you nose looks just like a .........."

or

"Man he used to talk shit before the accident but now...."

def leppard's drummer only had one arm and still played better than most others since his time maybe you should focus on losing the arm and then you could be a drummer mate

[motorbyclist]

dude that sucks! any idea how/why it happened?

bugger about the hand mate but for those talking, gloves simply aren't built to take that..

hope it all heals well without complication.

moral of the story: get clear of your bike


edit: looking at that road it looks like similar conditions for my recent 'random' bin.... wet tar bleed

[gijoe1313]

Crikey mate, that ain't too good ... glad to hear that you were wearing gears ... that bone dome sure did its job!

Best of luck in your recovery and try not to make yourself too much of a nuisance to the nurses okay?

[Toaster]

Ouch.... but good to hear the outlook for recovery is good. All the best!

Gutted to hear about your VFR bro that sucks! Someone needs to do something about those motherf**kers!!
