Apparently the car in front of him stopped. Just got back from the ER. Apparently I ruptured a disc in my back & was diagnosed with sciatica? The disc is bulging out of my spine & pushing against my spinal cord & my sciatic nerve causing a severe pain in my left *** cheek. I can't bear any weight on my left leg what so ever. I guess it's fairly common so I'm sure others on the board know about what I speak. Muscle relaxers & time is about all that can be done. Huge pain in the *** no pun intended!
Anyhow, I took a couple of pics with my phone before I came in the house. I really dodged a bullet today because it could have been much, much worse but it still sucks!!

Iam/have been dealing with 4 ruptured disc and 2 compression fractures, so I feel for you.
PT 3 times a week helps, Percocet's help more
Here's to a speedy recover for you and your bike

Lesson Learned?
Sorry for your misfortune. Wishing you the speediest of recoveries! Screw the bike - metal can be unbent, you not as easily. It's a lesson learned, not so much the easy way! People here want to point out fault but I prefer to remind myself of what can be learned from everyones experiences. Slow down, smell the roses, enjoy the ride and for G-ds sake, keep my head out of my ***!
