No Pete, the road has not been fixed.... Been looked at by 27 county officials, 18 departments heads including the Chicago Park District, seems Daley wants to put a planter there with native grasses.
Again, thank you so much to everyone for your concerns and well wishes. I did go get looked over, read Paula's post and seems I am a sucker for a mother's nurturing. Of course showing up in an emergency room three days after an accident I had to suffer a mother's lectures. The ER nurse just had to keep tellin' me how dumb I was and she just didn't know what was with kids these days... of course she was actually only four years older than me but I could sense the love so nothing was taken personal. Hairline fracture in one my metacarpal thingies and some lovely multi-colored areas on my backside (by the way all the tattoos are fine) and repeated assurances that I didn't too bad at all for a near fifty-year old who got a Honda Accord shoved up my posterior end.
Bike got towed out to the dealer and a phone call today for a brief rundown of the damages... seems I am just shy of $4000. When asked if my right exhaust pipe was previously chewed up, as in before the accident, I informed them that they were new and not damaged prior... is it wrong of me to say what the he11, write it up anyway, what ya askin for? So that should push me over the 4G mark. One of my concerns is that is purely for the cosmetic ends of things... they haven't rode it, I did, and something seemed wierd. So how's that work, you make it look all purty again and then see if she rolls down the road all nice like? Not sure what is the standard approach on something like this, plus NADA shows my bike worth somewhere between 4,200 and 5,600. Guess I gots to talk to the Geico folks... New Guzzi in glazer's garage?
