Ouch man. If you're joking about it, I assume there isn't anything too serious, which is fortunate. Hope it heals quickly.

Ouch! When you're feeling better, we want to hear the war story... and of course the question above is averyone's main concern :D


fordfasterr
 
ouch, looks nasty.

My suggestion for you is to keep every bit of road rash moist.

You should NOT allow any part of the wounds/rash to dry up or scab up at any time.


If you follow my instructions, you will heal quickly, with minimal pain, no scabs (which may lead to infections), and little-to-no scars at all.


prendrefeu
 
Heal well.


merckx89
 
I thought we all agreed on no more crashes. Geez, Hope you heal up quickly.


jpconrad
 
That sucks, dude, get well soon!


Extort
 
Get well soon! and stop trying to impress the girls when you are riding your bike... that will prevent this from happening in the future!

So I assume that the 'Charity ride for Dave' is for you?

10 AM Saturday, Triangle Square, Costa Mesa...


dddave
 
well my buddy and i were on the bottom level of the triangle square parking structure just messing around, practicing tricks and sht. i went up the ramp to get some speed to lay a long skid and all i remember is turning around at the top of the ramp to come down. next thing i remember is having a bunch of paramedics around me, then waking up in the hospital a few hours later. he said i just got sideways and went straight down, my head took the brunt of it. he said i didn't even have time to put my arms down.

i broke everything around my eye, the bone my eyeball sits on, and my cheekbone. =\


Crash716
 
That's pretty rough man....heal up quick...no drinking from straws...did they tell you that? I did the same thing into the back of a truck on a motorcycle a couple years ago...you'll be fine sooner or later...i know you know this already man but helmets man helmets!! Were you wearing one?, if not you may have gotten off lucky so to speak. Heal up soon bro! I know how much it sucks to be broken up.


Grumpy Pig
 
Ow. Get better soon.


garysol1

Did you have a helmet on?


Nachoman
 
No I feel like a wussy complaining about my hamstring.


Go_Fast

Ouchies. You do have your face insured, yes? Your career as a catalog model may be in peril.

yea that's mine.

and no, i wasn't wearing a helmet. =\


cjbruin
 
Are they raising money to buy you a helmet?


alicestrong
 
Feel better soon, dddave. I hated to hear about this. :(

If I can't make the ride, I will paypal you a lil something...


merider1
 
yea that's mine.

and no, i wasn't wearing a helmet. =\

:eek: Oh, good Lord. I've not been checking the forums and I missed this. :( I hope you heal quickly, Dave.


Drew12
 
Dave, Hope you heal soon...

I've probably seen you ridin around here
I only live a few blocks from Triangle square...


Grumpy Pig
 
yea that's mine.

and no, i wasn't wearing a helmet. =\You might want to get a hockey mask.


DScott
 
Dang, that's some nasty damage. At this point, though, I'd be more concerned with what the inside of the skull looked like.

Probably not a whole lot worse than what you might expect from a night of heavy drinking, but still... ;)


Be well! :beer:


merider1
 
Dave, did they give you a cat scan? I would suspect so, but if not - seriously, go get one just in case.


spingineer
 
My friend Mary also had a spill too. It is a dangerous beginning to the year.


fthomas
 
Looks like you might require some extended heal time from the sound of it.

Take care and follow the Doc's orders.

Prayers for you for a speedy recovery with no complications!


buck65
 
Get well soon...hope you don't get any headaches.


ggallin
 
i dont think a helmet would have helped.


dddave

dddave

Allez Oops
 
ddd00d! You look like De Niro in "Raging Bull." Bad-ass.

But seriously, no damage to the eye or vision, I hope?

I think your wrong but this ain't the place to battle over helmet safety. How are you feeling this morning Dave?

3. Do you have health insurance? :eek:

does your helmet protect your cheeks?


VanceMac
