My track day, what a day.

[Loki]

Yesterday was full of firsts! First track day, first new rear tire, first full zero chicken strips, first knee drag on both sides, first wreck on the track, first high side, first broken bone, first ambulance ride!

Whole Album

High lights.

First knee down! Happened first real lap

Changing out 200 drop off tire for new 180 tire

Only out for 30 mins

Alot of buells there

Then i high sided and broke my collar bone!

Good thing for track plastics

Hey 50, want to hook my up with a discounted spooled rear slider? broke my spool post off! Thanks for helping save ANOTHER of my bikes swing arm!

A good bit of this is from me scraping knee, not the crash.

I had fun!

 

[fireinxb]

Edit: okay works now.

SIck! I'm so ******* jealous of that. I really want to buy a generic Japanese bike to track so I don't drop my buell!

Holy **** that looks like you went down hard. That neck shot made me cringe. I dont know why, but it still makes me REALLY want to hit the track. So.. are you going back to the track when you recover?

 

[nikfleisch]

Glad you're ok!![up]

On another note loved the pictures and intro story!

 

[Loki]

Hell yeah!
I was knee dragging at places my friend with the panny wasnt, and he has done a few track days. Its a hugely different exp tho and i need more of it.

 

[Thaloc]

Point that elbow at the ground!

Glad you had a good/bad day. Crashing sucks, but you always learn something. Broken collar bones suck even worse. Guess your going stranger for a while... lmao...


What Knox gloves are those btw? Looks like the scaphoid slider did it's job.

Loki,
Sorry to hear about your mishap. Heal well.

I also high sided at a track day, late July. Compression fracture to my T11 vertebrae. End of day...think I cooked the tire.

Good luck with the repairs.

 

[XRorXB]

I bet that broken clavicle hurt a lot. Nice pictures, and glad you're ok man.

Dont forget there is a whole album of them with the link up top.

Yeah great stuff that the first bone i have ever broken in my body was my collar bone, One that is connected to damn near everything! I find it funny and still look back on all of it and smile and laugh.

Only thing that im not smiling about is the fact i have to find a way to buy an arai vector 2...

 

[Rhino1]

Sorry to hear that, Loki! [sad]

Looks like you have a great attitude about it, though, and that's good. Here's to a quick heal!

 

[Loki]

Yeah i try. Need people to buy stuff so i can afford to get a new helmet.

 

[Jmal18]

Heal up fast.

 

[Loki]

Update: It got worse, will now need surgery and im looking to be out a total of 24 weeks

 

[P3_techman]

Holy crap, you're damn right it got worse.

That is a shame, bro. Settle next time, let it heal. 150 is too fast with a broken collar bone, ha.

 

[Loki]

I cant help it. It was only two days before i was even able to see the doctor. I mean i sneeze once and bam!

Lol im pretty sure it actually happened after my shower the day after, i was in tears while trying to put the sling on, makes sense that it broke more during that time. But i wasnt on pain pills then either so idk. Whatever, still a bad ass x ray!

My whip lash hurts the most, had a catscan on my neck and thankfully it came back fine. Hoping that pain is gone in the next few days,

My surgery should be done friday.

 

[Loki]

Got home from surgery, it went good. Doc said my bone was in 5 different pieces. Also found out that anesthesia is no joke and will knock your ass OUT.
Night before

After surgery at home.

Cant wait till i get the to see the stitches! Feels like the doc actually had to make a pretty big cut though. :/, well chicks dig scares right?!

 

[Loki]

Tried to edit.
