Geared the Tedster up and off to University Hospital we went to visit our buddy (& fellow SpyderLover SporterSpyder) Stan, after he had been in a head on collision on his 2 wheeler the day before. I wasn't sure what to expect, as his daughter had only posted that he was in a head-on wreck & had to be Air-Lifted to the hospital Coz had already stopped by earlier in the day, so I'm sure he was happy to see a couple more of his ryding buddies, including Teddy. He's not nearly as bad as it could have been, only a broken leg, fractured pelvis and a few cracked ribs, but no head or internal (soft tissue) injuries that they could find. He was sitting up and in good spirits when we arrived, tho he's not very mobile at all. We talked for a bit, and he relayed what he remembered about the accident, which was not alot considering he was almost immediately knocked unconscious upon impact. He was on his 2 wheeler, sitting at a light waiting for it to change so he could turn. Another vehicle (no clue what kind) came up over the hill and into his lane and crashed into him head on knocking him and his bike back into the car behind him and subsequently the bike went over breaking his right leg and knocking him unconscious, waking up in the hospital I think any of us that ride, fear this very scenerio, I know I do He's lucky that he was just sitting there and not going forward adding to the momentum, or it may have been much much worse He's thinking he may be able to leave the hospital today and go to a rehab facility to begin his healing process, which is going to take some time for sure I'm sure getting some lick'ns from Teddy helped to lift his spirits and Teddy and I are both keeping him in our prayers for a speddy & complete recovery. He also wanted me to relay his thanks to ALL of YOU for the well wishes and prayers Knowing that people from all over the country are praying for you and wishing you well really does help THANK YOU ALL!!!

Man, what a helpless/hopeless situation he was in....absolutely nothing he could do except sit there and get run into! That's terrifying!

Very glad to hear there's no head injuries, that's a blessing! Good luck Stan!

Really nice of you guys, Coz, Dave, Teddy etc. to go visit so often....I'm sure it means a lot to him.

Stan transtered to the re-hab facility yesterday afternoon. i'll check in on him on friday. i'm sure he's thrilled to be out of the hospital.

[dannymax]

That's good news Coz! Those re-hab folks are sadists but they'll get him up & around and that's a good thing.

Good luck Stan.....don't throttle any of them, they're there to help you.....(and satisfy their own sick desire to inflict pain on the defenseless!!)

went to see stan at the re-hab facility this morning. hung out with him while he was doing his workout. he's doing pretty good.he's got his sense of humor back, which is a good sign. still in the wheelchair, which he will be for a while. spirits are good. it's a very nice place. he should do well there.

Teddy & I will stop by after I get home from work today if you can give me the address to it, as I'm not totally sure where it is Thanks bud

i went to visit Stan yesterday. he's doing pretty good, getting p. t. twice a day. they have no idea how long he will stay there. he has a check-up with his surgeon tomorrow. they will remove his cast ( ankle ) check it out, and put a new one back on.
Stan has offered me his brand new in the box Corbin seat to break in for him, since he's still going to be layed up for a while. it should be just right in about six weeks.
I think he's going to need a new screen name, since the sportster is history.

[coz]

he's doing well. everything seems to be healing up. the ankle will take a few more weeks. i picked up his new seat and installed it on my bike this morning. the fuel door is really nice.hopefully i'll be able to put some good miles on it, to break it in, so it will be ready to switch to his bike.
