SCREWED UP BIG TIME--no ridin for 8 weeks

[BigBoreManiac]

First the lecture, even if its late. Wear gloves when handling around sharp objects. Said this more than once to my guys, only one almost cut his hand off and guess what? He wasn't wearing gloves!!!! BTW, dearskin is 5X more abrasion resistant and almost 2.5X more cut resistant ant 1000X times more comfortable than leather. (the last was my input, the other is documented). And those hightech kevlar gloves are way more cut resistant, but generally not all that comfortable. Yeah, I realixe that "It;s only going to take a moment! But it doesn't.

That said, I feel for ya. Last year on Feb. 25th, I slipped on ice in my drive, bumped my head, and ended up with brain surgery that put me out of riding for the best winter in 30 years!!! But I'm going to make up for it this year.

May you heal fast and strong.

I'll be shocked if you make it 4 weeks Darrel! Ask your kid, Dale Jr. was back in the car the following week after 3rd degee burns. Sure, he got out of the car early in the following 2 races... but he was there!

Good luck and speedy recovery!

By title of the thread (SCREWED UP BIG TIME)--no ridin for 8 weeks
I was sure you were came to realize that you were riding the wrong brand of sled! Skidoo

May you have a speedy recovery!!

 

[Highmarker]

wow that sucks man... guess you will have to go sit in the garage with a beer and start the sled up once in a while...you know to get that 2-stroke smoke fix!!!

 

[JTAB]

that sucks

Revy the week of Yamafest first hour of the trip Canadian doctor said wrap it and ride. A month later Mayo Clinic and surgery I know your pain it sucks not being able to ride.

super sorry about the hand....broke my arm last jan and lost the rest of the season, due to the throttle on my new xp sticking in the wide open position in the trees....arms good to go now, lost a little flexibility, could have been a lot worse...and docs aren't always conservative, they told my wife she could return to work 6 weeks after her little mishap, actually took twice that long.... besides, losing a season riding an xp isn't like losing a season snowmobiling

 

[hilinerider]

sucks man,,

i have to come down next week for service and was goin to bring the sled and get a hold of ya,

hope for a speedy recovery

 

[WhistlerCowboy]

That sucks!Heal up quick!

 

[rockdog2112]

Dude, that f***ing sucks. Listen to the doctors. I messed up my back and right arm this summer and because I listened to them and went to the physical therapy for two months, I get to ride this fall. Good luck.

 

[winter brew]

So...you can't lift your middle finger. There's got to be a good joke in there somewhere Wrap that sucker and ride! Get well

 

[REDNECK REV 827]

[Skinner]

Damn that sucks big time!!! In 8 weeks hopefully there will still be snow!

 

[Scott]

Got pics?

 

[sledhead ut]

Sorry to hear. At least you'll have good snow waiting for you. I'm sitting here 2 weeks after knee surgery. Was worried about missing some rides. Not worried now. NEED SNOW.

Good luck and hope all goes well. Keep us posted.

 

[snow_knight]

Damn you Darrell... Haha.. How are we going to get back into some of those spots without you.. haha ...

And get some sweet pow pics every week.. ..


Well sorry to hear that.. hopefully you have a speedy recovery.. there is still some riding left in 8 weeks..

 

[89sandman]

you gotta be more careful am always worried about something like that happening to me at the shop, we don't have any snow so if it would make you feel better you can come here and it won't seem so bad!!!
