Accident
Alright, this is it. I just wanted to go out for a while before lunch and come right back. Unfortunately, God had other plans with me today. This is what happened.
I was going up 64W then decided to take the Busch Gardens exit. I normally take the exit going about 80mph, but today I decided to go 100. Why? I don't know. I felt like a hero, I don't know. Anyways, I hit a patch of gravel and felt the bike lowside. Next thing I know I'm sliding in the grass and my bike laying it's side. I was wearing my helmet, leather jacket, gloves, jeans, and boots. I do have a few cuts and bruises that still hurt a bit. The main one is on my left thumb; it's a hole that a piece of rice can fit in.
Anyways, I thank God I am still here, my wife is expecting our first baby in December. I'll keep y'all updated as I get more info...

That's how it usually happens. You start getting comfortable and then push it further than you should.
yeah that exit is fun as hell. sorry u fell victim to the random gravel patches... hope the bike is salvageable. btw *soapbox* doing 100 mph on a public road is STOOPID WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!!!!!!11!!!!one... lmao im jsut bustin ur balls dude, but seriously, Im glad ur ok and hope u can get up riding again soon...just gotta survey where ur ridin a lil better b4 ya attack full force...
Sorry to hear about the accident and glad you are here to talk about it! I've never been in a 100mph accident before but I know that 30mph accidents hurt like hell! I hope the bike is still salvagable with a lot of grass stains instead of concrete marks.
