Sweetwood- your not hard on me/I'm hard on myself...Yes the accident happed on a corner on Parker's road about 3/4? mi from his house. I got into some Frost Heaves and it shot me right to the side of the road=no time to react.(Didn't help the sun was shining in my eyes=Sun glasses lens falling off so i had safety glasses on/maybe i would have seen the Heaves? and approached differently). I road the shoft shoulder out for about 70' and got down to near 10 MPH when the front tire hit the real soft stuff/well down i went on my left side-Rest is history.
I did stop quick at Parkers house where he dumps his sap to bend out the left foot peg away from the motor some more-Rode the bike home insted of waiting for a tow co. that i could have called. As i was a little hurtin' on the left side and wanted to get to the Hospital to have it checked out-I didn't stop in and see parker i headed out 30 seconds later.
Last night coming back from Uihlien Maple in Lake Placid, N.Y. i almost had a new hood ornament on my wife's new van/under 600 Mi.-4 deer jumped out in front of me-I about had to lock up the brakes going uphill when in you mind your foot is saying more gas to keep your speed up until the top. They were about 20' from being history.
