This guy will die, or.....

I used to drive like a mad man. I had to lay my bike down at about 75 mph when someone pulled out in front of me. I knew I was doomed and did not want to embed myself in the side of his vehicle, so I pushed the bike down and did a superman leap that Supes would be proud of. A nurse was driving behind me....she told me I did at least 3 full somersaults in the air before I landed. I already had a cast on my right arm, with only my fingers sticking out the end to hold on to the throttle. I somehow managed to use the cast to absorb most of the grinding and impact..it was flat from the elbow to the hand and ground all the way to the flesh. I was not wearing a helmet, and I only had a T shirt and jean jacket on.

There are old riders and there are bold riders, but there are no old bold riders.
