I've offed my left leg along with other stuff. It'll be a long road ahead.

I'll lie back posting soon hopefully.

FFS Skub - stop trying to outdo the FUF, it is NOT good for a person !! But ok, you did outdo me :lol: :lol:

If offed is completely offed, lots of positive options out there. If it's a bit FUBAR, well - swap the gear change to the right side and only use the front brake :angelic-green: :angelic-green:

Look after you. Keep positive :wub: :wub: :wub:

One positive is the gear change rod goes right through the engine on those h1s so they'll be easy to swap the gear change to the other side :thumbup:

Mate of mine had a leg removed a few weeks back. Nurse at the rehab place where he's currently imprisoned asked me to "stop referring to a prosthetic as a peg leg"..

When you've had a massive crash with life changing injuries, I imagine there's 2 trains of thought.

Fuck, I've lost bits of my body.

Fuck, I'm still here.


When I had my massive crash at Mallory in 2007, I remember waking up in agony, but still alive.
I didn't think I'd survive it.

Think positively Skubster

Holy Smoly @Skub . What to say other than get back to being the best you can and revel in the fact that you're still drawing breath. Oh, and the Mrs sends her best too.

Not nice but congratulations on not being dead :thumbup:

If the wife lets you then possibly an electric motorbike with vroom, vroom noises in the future.
