Guys,
JJam and I have been in touch quite a bit lately in regards to a CBR swingarm he's going to mod for me. Today I found out that he went down on some gravel and cracked some ribs, broke his collar bone, broke a small bone in his wrist, wracked up his already bad knees, bruised a kidney and punctured a lung. So he's hurting for sure and I'm surprised he even felt up to sending me a message. Anyway, I wanted to pass the news along so as many of you can send along your get well wishes and have good thoughts for him to heal up fast without too much suffering along the way.
It sounds like they've got him on some good painkillers, so he's probably feeling pretty good anyway.

Welcome jjam to the notable fraternity of those who got off their bikes before they came to a complete stop. Mine was going 60. I sincerely hope that you make a full recovery. Those first few days of morphine on demand iv will help you to bank some grit for the aches to come.
I'm sure that you too were in the icu with those less fortunate, which for me was a profoundly humbling time. And oh the nurses!
