Latest Update!!!

 Kim is healed physically but not mentally, she still not wanting to get back on the bike, I am not trying to sway her decision, just giving her time to heal.

 I am finally cleared by all doctors to return to work in the morning 7/06/15! Never thought I would be so excited to go to work, but I am.  The doctor wants to put my pinkie in another brace to try to straighten it, right now it is curled and makes it difficult to put on gloves. I will be restricted to inside duty and have to be 'shadowed' for 2 weeks. Since I had a head injury, I think they just want to make sure I am not cra-cra before allowing me to wander in the plant. :banghead:  In the meanwhile, after getting cleared from the doctor to use my hand, I have been working on my bike. I have her ready to ride once AJ installs the new back motorcycle tire.   I was hoping to ride it for my first day of work but it just didn't work out but I should have for Bike night Wednesday.  Looking forward to riding with you guys next spring! :bikerider:

that is great news.  I know you are biting at the bit to get working/riding again, but just make sure to take it slow.  Sometimes a person is surprised to find out that they are not quite as physically ready as they are mentally.

That's great news.  Glad to hear the bike is almost back together.  I'm sure it would have been a he11 of a surprise for your co-workers to see you roll up on a motorcycle after a motorcycle accident.  In all fairness though, I would most likely do the same.

Gary, sounds like a plan, send me a message when you will be here. It will be nice to see ya!

Lucky and Steve, I have a great boss, he is keeping me on a tight reign and won't let me overdo anything.

Chad, Yes, I've given up the car tire. As much as I loved the ride and traction of the car tire, I honestly feel it was the reason I crashed, the bead broke too easy from the rim, especially since it was a run flat tire. I removed the tire from the rim to inspect the tire and rim and didn't see any issues with the tire other than the puncture which lead to the rapid air loss. I did notice a build up of the tire mounting lube along the bead of the rim which I thought was excessive and may have played a part in the bead breaking. It was a freak accident but it is NOT worth the risk, I consider myself lucky to be able to ride again, I am not gonna press my luck. ;)
