Yesterday was the first day that I made it without pain pills for my back. Seem to be recovering fairly well. Am still kind of shocked over the whole thing. Anyone who has been on the Arkansas Rally the last couple of years knows that 221 is a great road to ride, as much for the lack of traffic as the curves. The only vehicle I met was on my side of the road. For the hours I was standing on the side of the road after the crash only saw a few vehicles pass by. So I guess just rotten luck. I have always tried to ride like everyone I meet is trying to kill me. In this case was absolutely true.
