My Recount of Yesterday (LONG)

[Half Squid]

Uhg... Sorry to hear. Your not alone we all have crashed, or will at least once. Sounds like you did a good job, OUCH!!

Glad Pete took such good care of you!

Heal up Jackie! and get back out there!

[csmutty]

Everyone else has already nailed whatever needed to be said. So heal up

[Pittenger5]

Dont lie to us, you were merely distracted by Pete's glorious goatee, werent you?
Its ok, it happens to the best of us.

[OreoGaborio]

Thanks so much for the kind words, everyone. She's lovin the love & so am I.

I was pretty friggin impressed by a text I got from her this morning... She woke up in the middle of the night, got outta bed, went downstairs & back up again WITH her crutches without any help. Was painful, but she managed.

She's in pretty good spirits today... I swung by her place with some Chinese before I had to jet off to work. She's all cleaned up, chillin downstairs on the couch with remote & cell phone close by & "nurse mom" right there with her on the recliner.

Swing by & say hello if you're in the Peabody area.

Best wishes for a speed recovery, oh, and ride again.

[Rossco]

Good thing that nothing's broken. Heal up soon!

[Stromper]

Welcome to the VERY LARGE CLUB

Glad your on the mend

[Trouble]

That's a hell of a way to start a long riding career! Its a bummer to have it happen so soon but hopefully it means you got it out of the way! I'm glad you're ok and in good spirits!

[Rada]

Sorry to hear Jackie. Keep that chin up and work Pete for all the extra service you can get....

[fineout]

Sorry to hear jackie, I dont know you but it seems like you were stoked on getting on the bike, so I hope you can get back on and enjoy what we all do. I'm sure you also understand why good gear is so important.

[G21forme]

Heal up quick, my condolences for having Pete take care of you.

(jk petah)

[feralchimp]

Yikes! Glad you're alright.

[breakdirt916]

yep, I fell off within a couple months too...

also sorry to hear, but glad you're alright, pete IS the best

and talk to your md about the pain control if you can't sleep

[carsick]

Ah, this takes all the fun out of my wisecrack about you going down. On Pete no less. Very sorry to hear that such a thing should happen so quickly to someone working so hard at doing things the right way at a reasonable pace. Next time start right off with the wheelies maybe?

Get well soon!

[Garandman]

Scars are much cooler than tattoos.

[RocketPunch]

Wow sorry to hear, and heal up soon!

[GingahNinjah]

Why havnt the pics been posted up here on the forum yet?!

[sully749]

Glad you're ok and have kept your sense of humor. The learning curve is steep, but totally worth it. And, anyway, guys dig chicks with scars (here's hoping, otherwise I'm SOL).

[SCRLT01]

wows! Just read the "whole" story!! Dang girl - you done good there! Glad you were with Pete, and that he's taking such good care of you! Hope you heal up quick (1st race weekend is coming up fast!). thinking TTT needs to be at your house tomorrow

[Legally Jackie]

Thanks everyone for all the messages. I enjoy reading the responses and knowing I'm not alone here. It's really encouraging me to get back up and try again when I'm feeling better. The past couple nights have been rough though. A LOT of pain. But I have more meds now so hopefully I'll be able to sleep through the night soon.

Brian, among other reasons, pics haven't been posted in this thread because IIIIIII don't want to see them. Text Pete, he'll send 'em to ya.

And Jesse, I was able to go out to dinner with Eric, Steph, and Brian last night so I should be able to hobble my way over to TTT. But if I'm going, the rest of you have no excuses this week. :-P

[7UPyours]

glad you're ok and heal up quick

[SRTie4k]

First time does suck, doesn't it? I know how you feel, but it sounds like you got it a bit worse than me.

When you do get back on though, I think you'll quickly remember why you started in the first place and the accident won't seem so bad any longer.

Heal up fast!

[jcrawford]

Sorry to hear about the spill and glad to hear your doing ok.

I rear ended someone, definitely not as cool as yours

Heal up quick and hopefully you do get back on the bike.

[OreoGaborio]

Why havnt the pics been posted up here on the forum yet?!

They're disgusting.... and yet they also don't do what I saw justice. It was AMAZING!!!!

I'm sure tomorrow night will be like show & tell

[importcustomx]

Heal up fast, next time you guys go out... If marco ever gets a street bike again we could all meet up. I am always looking for a few people to out and cruise around with.
I live in groveland near the tea garden
