Holy s*it! It sounds like he was on his way home from work. Heal up quick & let us know if you need anything.

hope he is ok, knee mail sent

hope he's ok ....... fugging trucks need to strap there s*it down

Wow. Hope its not too bad.

Just talked to him on the phone. He is still in the hospital. He has 5 broken ribs and a bruised lung. He could not keep his breath long enough for a long conversation. Not sure how long he will be in the hospital but will let everyone know if I get more info.

pleaSE do that... hope the docs can help his situation be more comfortable...

Damn..the last year has been hard on riders... almost a dozen riders down that I personaly know or ride with. everyone keep alert and prayers to all.

Prayers to you Strom!
Everyone please ride safe so many people not watching for Us.

Hope the hospital stay is short. I will be in Lafayette on the 24th if he needs anything. Hopefully he is out of there by then.

Sorry to hear , strom . Hope you have a speedy recovery .

Oh no!!! I hope he heals quickly!!

Damn! Stupid people in cars are bad enough. Now we gotta worry about truckers not strapping down there crap correctly. Wishing Strom a speedy and full recovery.

Salt Creep,

I don't have Strom Riders phone number any more, but He and I worked together for a long time. Let him know that if he needs anything, whether it be come and get him or bring his bike and stuff home that I will do it. I will PM you my cell number in case he needs the help.

I am in Louisiana right now and I go home Wednesday night late (Thursday morning for normal folks), but I will make the trip back over if I need to do it.

I am doing fair, still having trouble with my right lung and ribs and Mrbadlands I will call tomorrow same to hayweed, and I still cannot hold a long conversation... but getting better, as I told mrbadlands tonight my bike is in ICU but it is pulling through

Get better and hope you get back on two wheels soon.

Its so good to see you post!! I hope and pray all continues to improve for you (and your bike! ).

Yes. Definitely give me a call if you need anything. Text me if you can't talk.

Exactly as Hayweed said, If you don't feel up to talking text me. Just concentrate on getting well is the main thing.

The V-Strom is totaled; I will miss my ride of over 45000 miles....I will save one of my screams in pain for my girl tonight……..

Oh no! So very sorry to hear that!!

That sucks! Look at the silver lining. When your all healed up you get to look for a New Bike.

Damn. I hate to hear that. That was a beautiful bike. Just get better and then worry about another bike.

thanks for the painful updates.... heal up !

Ok stromrider. Need an update. Hope everything is healing up good.
