Wait, what? Did you crash?

Hey, Jed, I was told your crash was pretty epic. But I was also told you came through it okay. Sorry I didn't get a chance to say bye and commiserate.

Yeah Jed, get well!

It was great to meet everyone! I apologize if I was a bit scattershot by the end of it all--I sometimes had a rough time focusing because there was SO much going on!

Good to talk to everyone and I hope to see everyone again next year in New Orleans!

And yes, I'll be riding down again. Wahoo!

I didn't hear about Jed's crash. What happened?

lmyers · Post by **lmyers** » Wed Jun 02, 2010 9:31 pm

I heard he hit a chunk of concrete, demolished the frankenscoot, but was okay. But I believe I heard wrong about how okay he is.

Yes, Saturday night, Macy, myself and Jed [gearhead] went on a joy ride and he just didn't see the big ol' chunk of concrete in the middle of the road, Macy and I avoided it, Jed being way far behind us, crashed and got serious road rash. He is okay though, just sore and stuck in bed for who knows how long for it to heal up, i predict it will take 2 weeks

Getting schoolwork done this week has been just shy of impossible.

Anna posted the MB group photos on FB! Lookin' good, all!

I've been back to work for a day and a half and got next to nothing done.... I wish to be released so I can live off unemployment and not work....

You guys are all looking good and having much fun! Wish I could have gone.
I recognize only some of you, how about a list of everyone so we can all know who’s who.

How you feeling, Jed? I hope you're healing up okeh.

Dude, lmyers was there & she didn't even make it to the picture! I dunno what happened. Rally fog...that must explain how come I didn't get a picture with ericalm or any of you Austinites. D'OH.

Ack! How did that happen?

Guess we'll have to hang again soon. I can hook you up with a ride if you come to LA!

Vespa Lexington asked me to write a piece about Amerivespa to help get Kentuckyans jazzed about the event. It's a good read for anyone who hasn't been but would like to know more about what it's like and what goes on there. The stuff I can talk about at least.

By the way, they wrote that almost embarrassingly effusive introduction!

I am happy to tell everyone today that I am up and walking around without a limp. Thanks for everyone's support and kindness! can't wait to see everyone again

Good to hear gearhead! w00t!

pugbuddy · Post by **pugbuddy** » Thu Jun 10, 2010 3:27 pm

Glad to hear it, gearhead!

gearhead · Post by **gearhead** » Sat Jun 12, 2010 7:57 am
