My doctor and I waited for 3 months before going in last week to drain it. They ended up taking 1 full liter of blood out of it, and even then it’s still visible today. I’m hoping the rest goes away without another surgery. had surgery #2 today. little more invasive, and they left a drain hanging out. Im on couch duty until it stops draining and I get it taken out (hopefully within a week) pain in the ass ---

Few years ago I was riding my polaris predator 500 out in schodack at an old summer camp that had been abandoned. There was a long winding dirt road through the woods to it which had been ridden on for years and the puddles had become huge 15 ft wide holes that if you got it right you could jump from one the the other if you were haulin ass. Well, it was winter and about 20 degrees and they were all frozen so I was flying I had a good rythm going and I hit one of the last ones at at least 30-40 and as Im coming down I realized the one I was landing in wasnt frozen… When I landed the quad stopped as if the hand of god grabbed it I flew over the bars and landed in the next one that also wasnt frozen and was about 6-8 inches deep full of 3-4 inch thick ice chunks. I landed sideways kinda on my shoulder I immediately couldn’t breathe because the water was so cold and I found later I cracked a rib I got up as fast as I could but not before the quad ran my leg over lol. I flew home on the roads so I could get outta the wet clothes which was about a 5 minute ride @ 65 MPH so yeah I was cold when I got back lmao. Gear: Helmet, carhart cover alls and riding boots What I learned: nothin… ---

2 crashes all minor lol and from stupidity lol 1. When i was like 16 I had a yamaha grizzly, sat on front luggage rack and did dougnuts until it finnally caught traction and flipped over. 2.couple weeks after that same ATV tried hitting a huge hill jump at WOT without looking at were i would land I hit a tree midair and smashed the wheeler all to hell gear- none both left me scrapped up pretty good and taught me that If you wanna act dumb it catches up with you, I had done both things 100s of times unhurt, was deff a maturing experiance to lose my ATV from stupidity ---

ive had a couple quad accidents over the years. one of them on a honda foreman 550 (i think?) i was new, not even my quad…it belonged to the guy i work for at his farm. i was going through his field, and came traversing accross a little hill, and i could feel the quad going sideways…so it was either flip the quad, or turn and see what happened…i turned, and hit a tree head on. messed up the plastic trim, reallllyyyy fucked the front rack, had to break the plastic to get it to shift into reverse (automatic) i think i was maybe 12 or 13 then? i hurt my wrist a little, other than that was fine. second one was last season, mid july. we got a honda recon 250 the year before, and id been out with it a few times. so i was riding with my friend, (he has a dirtbike) and we’re rippin through this one trail, when BAM. i hit a tiny stump hidden by some brush with the front left tire. me and the quad both went flying. quad landed upside down still running, idr how i landed…i just remember getting up, flipping the quad over, then running down the trail after my friend. only damage was the brake handle shifted a little, bent it back and was fine. no damage to me or the quad besides that! what makes the story better? i had a car accident about a month before, and my court date was the day after my accident…or so we thought. literally right after i crashed, my phone starts ringing, its my mom “GET YOUR ASS HOME WE HAVE COURT!!!” “mom you said it was tomorrow?!” “nope i was wrong its today…” so me and my friend get back on and rip back to my house covered in mud, stripped of my clothes, super quick shower, went down to court over an hour and a half late, still got the ticket reduced X) ---

Worth adding this in. [http://shift518.com/showthread.php?t=171](http://shift518.com/showthread.php?t=171) > [@On another topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/195/2): > > so i was out just for a little while on the bike last night and was on my way home on kinns rd in clifton park. im doing about 45-50 mph and i see a car come to a “T” intersection at bernini drive. i slow down as usual just as a precaution, see the car inch forward a little more just over the white line , so i start using my rear brake… the bike starts to fishtail a little bit, so i let off the brake, and the bike straightened back out… at this point in time the car continues to pull out into the lane and is nearly at the yellow lines. theres a car comming the other direction so i cant swerve… i hit the rear brake and grab the front brake and the bike proceeds to flip, ejecting me off the front. i landed helmet first and the bike lands on top of me sliding to a stop just before the car. i jump up knowing im in the road trying to make sure i still have all my parts, then try and drag the smashed up bike out of the road. at this point in time a pickup truck (ford ranger or something like it) is comming down the road and im waving trying to tell him to stop… he doesnt see me and i drop the bike and jump out of the way onto the lawn next to the road just in time to see him hit the bike at about 50 mph and knock it 300 feet further down the road. passers by and such stop and called 911… 6 county sherriffs show up and an ambulance in record time. im checked out in the ambulance and my right wrist is VERY tender and i have 5 small patches of road rash on my lower body and ass. the old lady driving the car tells me that she thought i was a street lamp and thats why she pulled out. she is cited for failure to yield the right of way, pulling into an occupied roadway. i come home and check out my gear and the helmet is scrathed heavily down the left side and cracked there with rubber marks from where the bike went across my head on the right side of it, the carbon fiber on the knuckles of the gloves is severely scratched and dented in on both , and there are tears by the neck on the back of the jacket, and on both sleves near the wrist. my ex gf and mother take me to the ER to get my wrist checked out and it turns out ive snapped the scaphoid bone in my right wrist clean through with over a mm of separation. this is going to require surgery to insert a couple screws and maybe a pin or 2 to pull the bone back together. after surgery im being told ill be in a cast for approx 4-5 weeks followed by intense physical therapy to regain use of my thumb and wrist. my gear saved my life guys so if u ever consider not wearing it think twice. ride safe. ---
