    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

If the border opens in 2022-ish it could happen.... It now has a semi-nice black chrome stock exhaust which slowed it down considerably....
 
Holy sh** man, that is one brutal blow! I'm so very sorry. Take your recovery seriously bud. Get well.
 
Oh man...just seeing this thread. Trevor, sorry to hear about this accident and happy you are alive! 4 way stops are brutal around here, changing the Stop to GOOOOOOO would put most in compliance.

Thank you my friend...I would love to see them all turned into roundabouts...
Little update on how I'm doing...
The nights have been pretty awful to sleep...the pain in seems to move all over the place and I am experiencing a lot of anxiety at "bedtime" because I don't know what I'm going to get...I keep the tv on for distraction until usually 3am...the ribs that are broken in my back can feel like I'm being stabbed with a knife.
I had a doctor appointment yesterday with the plastic surgeon that did my finger ( I have 4 different doctors, Hip, Chest collar bone, finger and my own MD) and he is happy with how it's coming along...I'll tell you it sure is a blow to the ego to have to be pushed around in a wheelchair by your wife...I feel so helpless. Then I went and seen my therapist for an hour....he's someone I used to see often when I was going through anxiety issues some years ago....I plan to see him again regularly. I was pretty beat after those appointments.
Today I go to Victoria General for follow up chest X-rays and X-rays on the finger.
My wife and I celebrated out 12th year anniversary of our first date yesterday...it was also our 8th anniversary of the day we got married.
My wife had some serious health issues in Aug being hospitalized herself for 8 days with a blood infection...and it attacked and already leaky heart valve...she's been on an IV pic of antibiotics for 6 weeks injecting herself 3 times a day...she just finished that on the weekend...so we went from me caring for her to her now caring for me..and with Covid we have spent a lot of time home together...and it has been a blessing in disguise...we are closer than ever before and we have a greater appreciation for one another...I feel so lucky to have Janice as my partner. And out son who turned 18 while I was in the hospital has been a trooper as well, I'm proud of him and how he has handled himself through these trying times.
But I would also like to acknowledge how much the support here has meant to me....It's so nice to open this thread to see new comments everyday of support and encouragement.
Thank you all... :)

Wow....not fun. I hope your recovery goes way better than anyone expects. And your wife, too! I have been meaning to post a quick story of my August. My perspective on life and family definitely changed a bit. The reason I have been meaning to write a quick blip is that it could potentially save some ones life. It was certainly nothing like you are going through, but I too am grateful to be seeing September.
 
My heart sank when I read about your accident. I wish you the best recovery possible.
 
OMG! Wowsers man. So glad your able to get on GSR and let us know your doing ok! Looking at the Bandit and seeing your notes make me grateful you came out above ground on this.
Heal up, hope things get better everyday for you. Keep us posted on your recovery progress.
Be well and stay positive!
My very best,
-Justin

You and Janice are almost on the same schedule as Simone and I... today is our 16th wedding anniversary, tomorrow is the 26th anniversary of our first date.

There must be something in the air in September. :encouragement:
 
Nasty prang, I hope you heal up quickly, makes harrowing reading. Get well soon.
 
Almost got run over today walking across the street with right of way light at a crosswalk. It is true: Humans are getting dumber every day behind the wheel.

The guy who hit me was not young...he was at the very least in 50s
 
A pint of beer says there was a cell phone involved....You don't blow a stop sign at that speed when you're paying attention .....
