1098S - touring

[DMNTD:Me]

just found out that it was a Mitzi truck that hit me!
no wonder 9 of my ribs are in 19 pieces.

[discotex]

OK so can anyone lend me a nurses uniform for a wee while?

You mean you don't already have one?


Heal up quick Chris. Good to hear your not too badly hurt. God damn roundabouts eh! Only plus will be guessing the outcome of the next "gone and done it" thread. RC8 worth a look yet?

Oh no, that's a crime. And not too good that you got hurt as well, was hoping to catch up if you made it to Invercargill. But a 1098 in pieces.......I'd best have a wee lie down....

I don't do 'side lined' very well.

if it wasn't for the drain for my punctured lung i'd be home by now

I dont know how cracked ribs feel, but those drains for punchtured lungs are a BASTARD. Give it 24 hours and it will be blown back up again, hopefully. I found I could hardly turn over or move at all with the drain inside me because it would stab the inside of my rib cage...

Get well soon man... take it easy.

Well its been a long day, but a lot of progress made this afternoon/evening.
As Chris said (from his hospital bed posting on his cellphone ) 9 ribs broken in 19 places, both front and back left hand side. Also a broken left shoulder collar bone, and left lung was punctured and collapsed but was re inflated and has been draining for 24+ hours. Chris managed a 50mtr sprint down the corridor tonight (well, we werent timing him), and the movement was good for the draining of the lung. Reports are Chris not at fault (well hello, left side smashed at a round about, give way to the right isnt it?).
I'll check out the bike tomorrow, and we will work through another day.
Cheers for all the support and help today people, you know who you are

As for the next bike? We have been discussing it all day, well its something to do

[EJK]

If the bike wasn't insured, the Mitsi driver would be in debt for the rest of his life... Just speaking frankly...

I've only cracked ribs so can barely imagine the pain of running with 9 busted plus collar bone. He's a hard bugger.

Hope the truck driver owns up and it's all sorted nice and easy for you guys so you can focus on healing up.

I'm sure you've got it covered but just yell if you guys need anything.
