At least they are alive. When you ride a motorcycle on public roads, you are not a threat to other road users, so you become invisible. I used to do it when I was young, but I became smarter and went road-racing - where, if you crash - you have usually done it to yourself. I cannot offer condolences, because I can remember the grief of watching a friend die at the side of a road - the ambulance guys would not even move him. A car had backed out of a driveway in front of him, and his leg had gone behind the bumper bar - he was pulled down onto the road.
When you ride a motorcycle or push-bike on public roads, you know the score. I do not enjoy the feeling of being so vulnerable.
 
Well my friends 8th day laying on my back in bed a position i am not a fan of but with steel and cubes hanging out of my foot won't be a problem soon, been getting a lot of phone calls from great friends and last night from a very old mate who got me into my love of Nortons and Fetherbed frame Commandos, we chatter for near 2 hrs, i also got my red cattle dog off him over 15 yrs ago, Millie she is a old girl now and Don has told mehis cattle dog will be have pups soon so might be a good time down the road to get a new cattle dog, Millie been great red dog but she struggles now.
The rouiitine in hospital is starting to get to me as being locked down is not me but i have to do my time, the staff have been great and so many think my attitude to my problem is so good, i am no hero or anything i am who i am no body special i just think positive at all times the nurses all love me and i try to make their day feel better with a bit of huimer thrown in.
A few people are coming to visit us today my wife Debra is sounding a lot better but she has a long road ahead of her for her recovery, we are so close but so far, a few nurses have worked with both of us and have told me she is doing great, as well as she can anyway.
As for the forums here i not going to stick my noise in or upset some as i usually do lol but i be there watching in the back ground, whats that i hear, thank fa ck for that, lol.
Well my friends 5:30 am and lots happening around me so i better let the girls do there stuf.
Cheers all Ashley
 
When that kid died, my mate and I were partly responsible - we had set a very bad example for him and his friends. They used to see us whizzing around - wherever we went was a race - it probably looked easy. He died just around the corner from my mate's house on a Saturday night, on a motorcycle which he had bought that morning.
 
Ashley - life and death are binary - whether we live or die is probably only ever a matter of dumb luck. We all take our chances. When I dislocated my collar bone and had a flat worn on the top of my helmet - I got the message - not to be so clever. Risks can be minimised to a tolerable level.
 
Ash I wish both you and Deb a speedy recovery. Glad to hear something good about the Qld health system because our experience was anything but that here in NSW. When my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer we got nothing but runarounds and a huge bill.
