    You win, Silver.

    Yes, I said win. You're alive and well, aren't you?

    Silver, did the cover come off your helmet in the wreck, or did you pull it off for a better picture???

    See, chicks do dig scars

    Sheesh, the only time these kinds of pictures get posted on the m/c forums is as ATGATT lessons.

    Let's not start posting copies of X-rays okay?

    When I cracked my ribs, there was no bruising!

    Though I did have a heck of a hematoma on my elbow. Didn't take a pic though.
