Well a little sad news. I laid the bike down (the road glide)the other morning on the way to work, (thurs the 23rd of june) Wet pavement on the exit ramp, went down on my right side. Had a half helmet on and a joe rocket coat w armor in it. I'm very luck w my injuries,scrapped knees, minor seperation ofthe right shoulder, it's the side I landed on. But some how I broke my left hand, the bone in the hand that lines up w the ring finger. So typing this all one handed. I had surgery the next day on the hand. Now have a plate and five pins in my hand. Told Lee(the fiance) to watch out for my left hook lol
Lee said that we will still go to Sturgis, I've beend told 4-6 weeks to heal.
Spoke w the HD dealer this morning, of course the bike rolled once i slide off. So all sheet metal, gas tank, engine guards and mufflers. approx 8100 us dollars. Just waiting to see what the insurance says, If they will fix it or total it. There is no frame damage but the damage is 50% more than what the bike is worth than they might total it. Should know something in a couple of days.
So a little sore but could be worst.
Was so looking forward to riding w everyone and sharing the news of my engagement. (got the ring off my finger before the emts showed up)
Guess just have to wait until next year and will have the finace w. He lives in OK city area right know and is looking to move up here. We meet 3 yrs ago in Sturgis and where friends until this past Jan. when he told me his true feelings for me. Needless to say I felt the same. We got engaged over memorial day weeked. Will be awhile before we set a date. funny how much can happen in a year.
Pease ride safe everyone. Ann Marie
