    Man! I had asked you about this as seeing your 'wheelchair' shave on SOTD.
    The details, however are quite scary! So good to have had some protection. The head is literally akin to a big egg.
    Bravo on the helmet!
    Wishing you a fast, complete recovery!

    No need to buy powerball tickets, your luck has been used where most needed.
    Terrific recap of a potentially life altering event. Wearing the right PPE saved your bacon, and allowed us all to share in your story.
    Thanks and heal well and fully amigo.
    Cheers.

    Glad to hear you're still green side up. I hope you have a speedy and complete recovery.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Welcome back!
    Thank you very much for letting others know the value of safety gear!!!! It saved you a lot of more serious problems and should be in common usage by every rider.

    That Sucks !! My sister in-law rides a bike...and at one fund raising event ....a women 20 feet ahead of her was killed by a car that was driven by a drunk/ druggie coming the other way. With cell phones and other distractions ....my bike riding days are long gone ,it's too dangerous. Have a speedy recovery and may the pain and suffering cash flow your way !!!
