was nailing 3rd pretty good and decided I wanted more speed so revved it out and jumped to 4th. then when cracking 4th pretty hard (was riding a gravel road with turns and hills and ruts from people getting stuck in trucks or quads I suppose) and was going way too fast for the next turn. tried to downshift and turn but all 4 tires were just sliding, I seen myself heading for a bank that had a big drop so I opted to turn down the spot I wouldn't go flying thru the air with the bike possibly rolling. but the bottom of the hill had all rocks bigger than bowling balls and I hit those still sliding sideways and the bike got to ride me for a change... I was wearing a helmet, boots, gloves and pants/jersey. I really wish I had a kidney belt on and neck brace or roll. maybe even a chest gard or some kinda upper padding. couldn't move for a little while and just laid there the bike rolled more without me so I wasn't under the bike. I couldn't breathe either at 1st and was thinking this is gonna be bad lol. my buddy caught up and came running over asking if I was ok so my left arm was the only part not so sore so I lifted it and gave him a thumbs up. I was sure my right arm was broke and my neck was pretty sore. I felt the bike roll over my head and the helmet squeeze a little between the rocks and bike. but I didn't get any damage to my head. after a little while I tried to get up and altho painful I could still move and felt too sore to sit where I was on the rocks. so I walked to/crawled and hobbled to the top of the hill on the side of the road and laid back down as I was way too dizzy to stay upright.
my buddy pulled my bike out the steering stem was bent but I think that's all. still rode. wife rode it back to the trailer we actually had the gurls in my truck following us so I got to ride back in my truck. told them I was getting worse as I was pretty much dizzy the entire time at this point. so we rode like 30min or whatever back to the trailer, loaded up and rode to the highway and towards the nearest hospitol, called an ambulance and met them on the road while traveling their way. oddly enough no broken bones or anything, just really nice bruises. eh, be back later, kinda light headed still... vicoden sucks, I'm not used to taking any kinda drugs bleh...
