Originally posted by LadyFish:<br />[QB] I've had 2 sorta bad wrecks. When Rod and I were dating I wrecked his brand new pickup. He hadn't even made the first payment on it. I rolled it many, many times. Sometime during the roll, I put the truck in park and turned off the ignition. I watched too many movies where the rolled vehicle exploded or caught on fire I guess. They found me in the snow bank down the road a ways.<br /><br />The 2nd one...when we were dating, we took our motorcycles for a day trip and I got caught in some nasty crosswinds that threw me off on to the shoulder of the road. I was inches away from the W-beam and the bike was out of control in the salt/sand so I decided I was not going to lose a leg to that W-Beam and pushed the bike out from underneath me. I was doing about 65 at the time. <br /><br />We were riding side by side and when Rod looked back he saw me in mid air and a tractor trailer not far behind me. All turned out well. I sprained my ankle and tore the muscles away from my pelvis but the was all. After it was over, Rod couldn't get his harley started so I pushed him up a damn hill so he could pop the clutch. Not realizing how hurt I was.<br /><br />As it ended up, we had to leave his bike at a farm house and we bent a few things back on mine and drove it home whioch was a few hours away. When we got home, I couldn't get my boot off and sometime during the middle of the night I went to roll over and only the top half of my body moved. All the muscle tissue in my back was laying on the nerves. Scared me half to death. Funny thing about this accident is, I remember when I was in mid air which seemed like an eternity, the song "Dust in the Wind" was playing in my head and flashes of my life were before me.<br /><br /><br /> Heycods says, Im wondering how you ever made it to the altar? <br /> I guess you were doing something right.
<br /><br />I stopped about 6" from a large tree...had I gone off the road a second later I would have hit it and things would have been MUCH worse.<br /><br />
Gee..that's a shocker!
<br /><br />
He saw you wipe out, and STILL made YOU push him!?!? God bless him...he really found a great woman in you LF!!<br />(BTW, if you were pushing him UP a hill...why didn't he just coast DOWN the hill...the other way
)
think i still got it.. <br /><br />The ironic part is that I had been looking for a a suitable helmet like the ski-jumpers use in the weeks prior... don't know if it would have helped tho..<br /><br />I also tried the tommays bike wreck impression... Not paying attention, I hit one of them damn things in a parking lot.. (damn she was cute! ) Lucky I did'nt break or shatter anything, other than folding the front wheel in half... mega road rash on the shoulder tho...
<br />
They found the other guy trying to get away on three wheels just off the freeway.<br /><br />
