    Funny Wreck

    Yesterday I was ridin around everywhere cuz I had just got all the snow cleared with the dozer and could actually drive around the farm and down the rode (threewheelers dont like a foot of snow). Was goin to call it a night when I decided to jump this snow pile just for the hell of it. I got a gooood run at it because I figured I would blow through most of the pile. Not so. The SOB was packed. I launched off of that thing at an extremely steep angle, got an extreme amount of vertical air. I mean it was way steep cause I shot up and did a front flip in the air and land upside down frontward. I pretty much landed on my head with the trike upside down on me. I was still on my trike and it was still thumpin Thank god I landed in a snowdrift. THis just goes to show what can happen when the terrain is different than you expect. I was totally caught off gaurd and had no balance whatsoever.

    Douchebag on a 400ex went down the wrong trail pinned in fourth,jumped over a hill and slammed into me on my banshee head on. Hit my shee so hard,it twisted the steering stem,bent the axle and shattered the left rear bearings in the axle.
    He had no helmet on!You know the type,full riding gear with no helmet,graphics kit,redicoulously loud pipe.

    He had been flying all around that weekend in the main camp trails.

    (I was thinking to myself before it happened,that guy is ajackass that is going to kill someone).Little did I know 6 hours later,it would be me,that he hit.

    I now can spot them fools and I avoid them idiots like the plauge.

    He went flying off his bike,got hit by it,then he slammed shoulder first into a tree.
    Had he been 4 inches over to my right,he would have decapated me.
    Needless to say I have a real chip on my shoulder about Campground Throttle Jockies,with the latest, greatest machine,and a rider with the IQ of a rotted piece of wood.
    If they aint smart enough to put a helmet on,well that says it right there.
    Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...

    i ran my banshee 6th gear pinned on the roads heaidn to my buddies house a few years back and the throttle stuck and i hit behind the truck and cought the front of a low boy equipment trailer comign the other way. i jumped up and my ankles hit the bars and i cartwheeled liek a rag doll trough the air and into a corn field the corn slowed me down enough that i didnt realyl get hurt except a few bruises and a sprained ankle and soem small cuts














    then back i belive around 1997 or so i wa son a old 3004x4 tryign to play int he mud i climbed a hill out of a mud hole and somehow managed to flipoff the back and the quad landed on me trapign me unde rthe water. luckily the girl who rode with us was an emt caus ei would have drowned


    then i was racign snowmobiles on my 85 250r in the snow and hit a styrofoam block we shoot bow and arrow at and cart wheeled it in 5th gear. breakign my wrist.

    in 1996 i had a old dirtbiek dried goign between 2 trees and smashed both hands. clos eto 30 hours or reconstructive surgery i cna us ethem but not well so back off about my typing erors.

    then i rember a incident in 2006 with the 450r hil climbign and almost makgin the hill climb and it comign flyign backwards end over end down the hill ther ewas abotu 10 or so board members that seen that one.

    then at trikefest 07 i had a briliant idea to hit the mud pit in 5th gear tapped out on my 250sx and launced the jump into the pit and it stuck and rolled and if anyone has that on video or pics of it let me know.!!!!

    That last one was the best...gotta love pics!

    I have to admit that a good crash is part of the whole experience. Of course, I always prefer one with more "holy s**t" than actual injuries, human or trike.

    My buddy and I were jumping this tiny little bump at the local quarry, probably caching no more than 12" of air (at 40 that seems like a lot to me) and the right footpeg on my 250SX broke off on landing. Naturally, my foot hit the ground, then the back wheel ran up my leg and pulled me off the trike and then the trike over on top of me. He's got a pic of my helmet sticking out from under my upside down trike, which is pretty funny. I'd post it if I had it handy. No injuries to me, but the already frankenstein stitched plastics were totally wasted. Now I had an excuse to replace the fenders! It made for a good story when we got home.

    By the way, the bolts on my footpeg had apparently been shearing off for a long time. It was rusted about 2/3 of the way though, so who knows how long it had been like that? Needless to say, I've replaced all the peg bolts with new G8 bolts.

    September 11, 2007...I just got my 2003 Arctic Cat 500. I took off down the road and grabbed the brake (handle bar brake is supposed to activate the front and rear brakes) and rolled it over myself on pavement at about 30. If anyone has been on an Arctic Cat 500, you know they're not light. Luckily i had a helmet on. I spent the night in the hospital and came out with only minor cuts and bruises, along with a very sore few weeks.

    December 30, 2003...I was in a non-ATV related accident where a car hit me from behind and drug me 300 feet. I was completely paralized from the neck down. I have had to learn everything over (walking, talking, eating...ect) just like a baby.
