WR would post a power-profile of his crash.
Glad you're in one piece.

After all the drama only to learn you molested Bambi. Tsk Tsk.
Good to see you up and about, and I agree, good thing it wasn't a moose.

Nice custom job on the helmet!
I'm glad you were wearing it. Hope you're back on the bike soon!

Whoa serious header. Glad the wrist injury hasn't lessened your contributions to BF.
I went back to the BF alter and lit a candle.

That's why you where a helmet. This is what happens when you don't.
My friend after head injury from bicycle fall.
8 Staples in the head was the result.

We're bike racers, we don't need you to tell us what happens when people don't wear a helmet. We know what happens when you crash hard wearing one. Some of us have personal experience with it.

No offense, but get rid of that picture. This thread isn't to show pictures of your friends idiocy and resulting head injuries. Instead, it's about wishing WR a speedy recovery. So take your plea for attention elsewhere.

Anyways, glad to see you were not more seriously injured WR. That helmet is in as bad shape as any I have seen. Hope to hear some more of your ride reports and positive posts soon!
