Please tell me if you think your hack had anything to do with the outcome. Do you think YOU would have been better off on two wheels? The bike obviously enjoyed the benefits of it's third leg once stripped of it's rider. Thankful I get to ask.

I don't think a suit would be sucessful. I am just happy to have ridden home on the same machine
As for it being my time, BS! I think fate wants me to waste away from my other health problems so that I suffer more.
I just want to ride as long as I can. when I can't do that anymore, maybe a dually over my head would be a mercy.

For a very short stint I did some work as a movie extra but never anything that much fun.
My nephew now is a semi pro stunt man and had worked as such in Holland and in the USA. He has done motorcycle scenes in commercials and even was one of the stunt drivers in the first Batman movie that had that totally awesome giant wheeled batmobile running over villians.

Car tire climbing onto his head and round slick helmet just popped out somehow. He was in shock for few days, made him think a lot. He didn't change jack, of course. Still riding wild...

Maybe not as wild as when I was a young Turk but that is because I am now old and feeble, not because of any puny truck crash. Phelonius

Just thought I'd let you know that I sent a link to this thread to a friend of mine that had to do a speech on the pros vs cons of wearing a helmet. Her hubby has a Harley, but neither of them have worn helmets in the past. After reading about your experience and the other research she did for her speech - Im happy to say she went out and bought herself a helmet this weekend.
