Hey guys, just letting you know I'm joining the club. I got hit last night by a girl turning left and not looking where she was going and moving way too fast. I just got out of the hospital where I recieved 30 stitches on three large cuts to the face. I also obtained 4 broken teeth and the roof of my mouth has a fracture. I'll get dental work tommorow or friday to fix the teeth and my face will heal. The worst part might be that the crash bent my NJS Level frame in two place. I spent two months and a lot of money putting that thing together and have only had it for a week. Wish me well guys, I'll be needing it.

bummer, that sucks man. heal fast, and work the insurance (if you have it) for all its worth.

edit: if its any condolance I ate **** on the first day with my current bike and fractured my femur. fortunately the bike came out ok save for an NJS dent, just had to retighten the front hub cones.

Only a week?!? Good lord, I'm so sorry.

Oh, and hope your face does okay too...

ouch.... makes my balls feel better.

****. sorry to hear about your frame and face (and teeth and roor-of-mouth, etc). Do that healing thing that you do.

If I were a doctor I'd prescribe you lots of whiskey. That sucks.

Depending on how bad the teeth are and where the cuts on your face are, you might want to wait a little to get the teeth fixed. You can live with em if they're just chipped for quite awhile. If they're like shattered, it's totally different. I'm just thinking it would such to have the cuts re-open or tear out stitches trying to get your mouth open wide enough to let the dentist do their thing.

Heal fast - sorry about your bike.

well, as said before that really sucks, and too bad for your bike, for she won't heal, but hopefully you will, and the sooner the better.


Damn those women drivers...

damn, when I finally get me new bike I wont be able to ride it after reading all these, "first day on new bike, I got hit." threads

Get well soon

****!
i'm never going back out into civilization.

get well soon!

that really sucks, but did you get her infos? she paying it up?

it'd make it suck a little less

**** man, that really blows... at least you didnt get any more permanent injuries considering it sounds like your head took a beating. That sucks about the bike too, (this is Pete) I saw it when you were at Recycles last week and it looked pretty sweet. Good luck with healing up.

who the **** ride a NJS frame on the streets, thats just asking for trouble. you lose at life

XVX

were you running a brake, and if not, do you wish you had been? i'm curious - not trying to rub salt in your wounds.

lots of people do. way to prove your continuing idiocy by being an *******.

are your stitches njs?

******************************??? hahaha did u hit them or something?

Get well soon... I hope u could get the money to get a new bike from the chick... actually she wont believe it is so much money for the bike... so u'll have a goot fight in there... again get well and the bike it is nothing compared w/u. U r alive u know... thats the important thing in here...

U can get another bike soon... u cant get a new life... so u have to be happy now because of that... get well soon



UM

his seat cut off his circulation to his balls or something and he has orange size balls. something like that. he is out for a month or so. right?

hahahahaha.. now they call him big balls jam??

idiocy i think not. most people hold those frames up on a pedistol and baby the hell out of them(more than most frames, hence why they sell like hot cakes and go for insane amounts of money) and complaining about ruining said frame is just stupid, because if you held that bike in such high regard why would you put it in a potentially more dangerous situation.

My two front teeth are implants. Very expensive, but quite nice. I like em better than my natural ones. It hurts when they torque the titanium screws into your skull, but you get to say cool things like that later. Heal well.

i have fake front teeth and i hate them. they break so much.

********** wait so you're mad that he's sad about the frame? i'd be sad if my frame got messed up too. i think anyone would, regardless of brand/make/certification

Lumen, you sound like a straight up kook.

Grow up.

here's an idea. if you want to start this argument, do it in another thread.

****in sucks about you getting hit. there really seems to be a **** ton of posters getting hit recently. i've still got 18 ****in days until the doctors say it's ok for me to ride again.
