Uncle Stan... my 65 year old knee dragger friend... survived crashing
his RC45 serial #10...
Lance... his Ducati riding friend... saw the bike low slide in a high
speed sweeper...
Bike and rider continued straight hitting a Mercedes... OUCH!!! they
both bounced off the side of the car... Stan got hit again by his
spinning bike... DOUBLE OUCH!!! He was helicopter out unconscience...
He
suffered a mild concussion... loss of 4 front teeth... and a badly
swollen left leg... Currently Uncle Stan is 95% recovered and is happy
with the 20K insurance offer to fix the RC45... While this is in the
works he eagerly awaits a new VFR 800 and looks forward to knee
dragging
again...
Stan's only regret is that he had to cancel plans to race his RS 250
Aprilla at Los Vegas RaceWay...

---------------------------

I am wondering if Uncle Stan is now regretting continuing to knee drag
out on highways and teaching his novice girlfriend to do so after she
was killed 4/20/06 on Hwy. 1 NW of Petaluma, the same approximate
location of this accident...don't think a Mercedes was involved this
time....nor will he be paid 20K....and the double ouch goes deeper than
skin.....but unfortunately not Uncle Stan's.
