Low-sided the bike on the way to work on Tuesday on what was the only ice in town. I was going around a corner, and slid to the left, as the bike went right. Bike managed to flip from it's left side onto it's right, so it's fairly banged up, but friends who got it home had it run a while, and said it seems fine, with no leaks.
Me, not so good. I have a fractured right thumb, which is making typing difficult. Worse though is that I have little to no movement below my right knee. If I try really hard, I can wiggle my big toe, but that's it. So, no pressing down on the gas pedal any time soon. Thankfully, the wife can drive me around, and I can work from home some. I'll post how PT is going, for now I have a walker and a "foot lifter" that reminds me of the "ghost dog leashes" that they sell at the Haunted Mansion.
Don't feel sorry for me, there's a reason that the license plate on the bile is SNU SNU. I am ever so happy that I have Aflac, which will help to pay for some of my missed time at work (I was an in patient for 2 days).
I'll be getting back on the bike if I can get the leg to work again. If not, I'll have to go to an autotragic Miata, or learn more about hand controls.
