Saul Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Well she has but with more consequences this time. Off to A&E in the ambulance this time. Feared something broken in her right shoulder. Luckily the medics think not now but we are waiting for the all clear from radiology. She hyper flexed her shoulder which was explained to me as it popping out and then back in. Thank goodness she had all her gear on so the amour took the road rash although she does have a bit of a burn on her shoulder and knee. She has ligament and muscle damage with an expected recovery of 6 to 12 weeks. Ruined her jacket and bike jeans but we don’t care about that they did their job well. Not keen on seeing her rushed off in the ambulance but she will heal and be fine. She is gutted because she had to postpone her A2 test in November to next year. She avoided a common manhole cover that we all do but with to much vigor and the left foot peg dug in the hedge the momentum threw her off to the right. She reckons she was doing around 45 mph so really lucky she never hit anything. The police were good and helpful the Mrs and I were there within 10 minutes of the crash and luckily an off duty nurse got there before us. Her lying in the road is not something I would ever want to see again. But she is home and on the mend. Some one was watching over her yesterday that’s for sure. Anyway I’m currently sorting her bike yet again. These CB125F’s are surprisingly resilient. Only cosmetic damage again. I got the bent foot peg bar off and put it with her collection which has gone up to her uncle to be repaired. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago She's keeping you busy Saul. She's young so will hopefully heal fast, faster than us lot anyway. Hope she's not in too much pain, shoulders can be a bitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Hope she recovers ok, it must be a dilemma to keep her on a bike because it’s so great for her vs the risks. Unfortunately motorcycles come with risks. is she home and comfortable now? ps: I am starting to think she might need a boxer / telelever BMW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Glad she's ok Saul...but Dam ! How many times has she crashed..? I'd be worried crazy if I was in your situation every time she'd leave the house...not saying it's the case...but some just can't ride motorcycle...I have a few friends..they've been riding for years and they still can't ride ...some are so bad that I refuse to ride with them... Anyway wishing her a speedy recovery...might be time to get her two extra wheels... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted 18 minutes ago Author Share Posted 18 minutes ago Shadow is home and safe in and a fair bit of pain but she will be fine in time, she will learn. In two years and 20,000 miles she has been down twice, her fault, and knocked off once, not her fault. I know I went down a few times at her age through being young and reckless so I am not too quick to judge her. I do trust her though she is good on a bike but still just 19 and thinks she is bullet proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
