Hey all my hotboat friends, thanks for the kind words and prayers, really do appreciate it. Was one of those things that compounded into a bad situation that was just in-escapable. The bike is totalled (and replaceable) but I am very lucky considering what could have been the damage. Choices were; 1) hood ornament on a 1987 Chevy Cheyenne 2) ride the opposite shoulder into a deep forest ravine.... either one was gonna leave a mark!!!

Im on the mend, and should be back in the boat soon.

Thanks again
