I saw him a while ago and he appears to be healing well. Hopefully he'll post with an update.

True?

I understand ..... I respect the privacy of people in his position. And I respect your need to keep it that way! 8)
I'm sure it was something worth telling the grandkids some day! ;)
If there is anything worth telling in private that you can in good conscious relate, I'd be interested in hearing. I'll be working Tech/Grid at Gateway this weekend.

Ike, if you did what I think you did, I'm going to stick your hand in a barrel of salt... >:(
Please keep Ike on a salt free diet.
And K3....do you ever sleep? See a lot of posts from you at 2am and 4am?!?!
4 am is when I normally get up each morning. I play around on the computer a bit to wake up, then get ready for work. My job can produce overtime at any hour, so my sleep is all over the map. Some days I'm so tired when I get home, (like when I haven't slept for two days) that I will go straight to bed at 5:00 pm. Nine hours later, it's 2:00 am and I can't sleep...
You better get an adequate amount of sleep before this weekend as Saturday night you won't be getting a lot when we go out to the clubs.

I don't see myself going this weekend either! I am really looking forward to Daytona though!
So are you just hoping for a bike to materialize or do you have something in the works for the ROC? I noticed you were pre-entered and wondered what you were going to be riding?
maybe a gixxer 750 ;D
you got any extra 750's ???
my bike is just about ready, and im looking into borrowing an f4i just incase... maybe a zx6 02'...

Hey Dawn,
Thanks for thinking of me!
Ike, I didn't get any email from you. Sorry, dude. I would have responded... BTW, I finally got my trailer unloaded last week and it turns out I somehow ended up with your tailsection. I don't know why anybody would put a tailsection that has a big 40 on it in my trailer, but they did... It's not in too bad shape, either. You want it back?
As for how I'm doing, well, I started walking this week! Woooo hoooo!! Wheel chairs suck! And crutches actually suck worse!! I got cleared this past Monday by my doctor to start putting full weight on my leg. Everything else (ribs, lung, wrist and collarbone) is already good to go. Well, the collarbone (which turned out to be in 4 pieces) will still twinge if I move it just right, but I can sleep on my right side, so it really is pretty good.
Walking is a term I have to use loosely, right now. I *can* gimp around with no help, but I really have to use 1 crutch for now to really go anywhere. I can stand on it with no pain, but anything that puts any torque on the lower leg causes a sharp pain in my knee where they put the screws in. Walking generally does that on a regular basis without the crutch.
The muscle damage in my leg is still there. I still cannot tilt my foot up at all. I can press down with it and turn it side-to-side, just no lift. The doc will look at it again in 3 more weeks, but right now he's expecting I'll need another surgery to relocate some tendons to help out with that. We'll see.
Thanks to all that have kept me in your thoughts. I don't know yet if I'll be at Daytona. There's a bunch of you I'd love to see, but it's a healthy drive and a chunk of money just to "suffer" through watching the races I was hoping to be in (winning? ha!). If I don't make it, I'll see you in the Spring!

Stu,
Glad you're on the road to recovery. Rehab sucks but hang in there!
Stu,
Glad to hear you are "gimping" around. Thats a lot of progress in a fairly short time. I do hope you make it to Daytona, but only if you bring that wonderful lady with you.
Stu, glad to hear you are still kicking so to speak. You can always come to the GNF and hang with us. I am so thankful that both you and Ike are ok. Bodies mend, it may take time but they do. I can't wait to see you on the track again. Your next CD is on the house! Yours too Ike....

My '96 750 is all apart right now and I am going to be racing my '02 750 at Daytona, but I will be bringing my 600 along for 'just in case' reasons. The problem with you riding my bike is that the suspension is set for my weight and that's about half again what you weigh! :o ;D I have a feeling that it wouldn't be too fun (or controlable) for you to race with it being that oversprung, and I couldn't stand to see ya on the ground again, especially if it was due to my bikes handling with you racing it!

Yeah, I'll take my trash back...
If you know someone going to daytona, you can send it, or maybe i could stop by, if it's on the way, or.. maybe i can go ahead and send some shippng fee's to you and an addy...
we'll work out somethin...

Oh, Thanks Again Vickie !!!
And
Keep up the Progress STU!!!....
