Smoker went down HARD. Good thoughts

#1 Post by Questo vecchio rz » Thu May 16, 2019 1:45 am

Read a post from Smoker yesterday, crashed and broken up on the freeway.
https://www.rzrd500.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=6778
I'm in bed after elective surgery, and awful, very..painful recovery.
So when he posted, it struck a deep cord with me. He's a tough dude, been through a whole lot and going through alot..he doesn't need this damage to his body.
He's a very inspiring individual, So Perhaps some of you can send him some get well wishes to ease his pain and get him back to doing what he truly loves. He's done so much for the suffering of others in his line of work..he needs some in return...even if he doesn't like it :smt006

Best wishes to you Pete... So sorry to hear of your freeway incident!
Stay on top of the pain medication and find a nice reclining easy chair to sleep on for the next couple months.
Hang tough, we're all thinking of you!

Thank you so much for the kind words. :smt010
We've shared a lot over the years.
I don't know any other way to thank you for all the help and friendship. I have to try to finish the bike.
Probably won't be of much use to me, but that's another issue.
Can't make any promises at this point. Except that I'll try.
