I hit a double dip in the road, one where if a car hits it would bottom out. The front end started to violently whip left to right. Got it under control and got on the gas and got about 500 feet from where I recovered the front end and it did it again took me down on the left flipped to the right and let go tumbling down the road bike right behind me. The reason the seat and tail pipe are pushed up is because when it flipped right the rear end swung around and hit the guard rail bounced off and stopped in the middle of the road, me about 20 to 30 feet away. I just remember thinking to my self when am I going to stop flipping. I looked up from the road dazed looking down the road. Got up as quick as I could and ran to the side of the road sat on the guard rail and fell over the side. I laid there for a sec blood dripping down my hand trying to reach my cell phone. I got up and by that time there where about 10 bikes that pulled up and some people in cars all stopping to help. I could just barely move my right wrist it hurt so badly. About ten minutes later red and blues lights where flashing. They wanted me to go to the hospital but I told them I would take my self there. They just wrapped booth of my hands, because I was not wearing my glove I had every thing else but them.
Did not hurt the palms of my hand just the top of my hands where they hit the pavement. The ambulance left after I signed a release. Couple of people and state troopers pick up my bike and stood it up. It was still engaged so I had to shift it in to neutral. They rolled it to the side of the road.
Then the trooper took his report talking to people that seen the accident and talking to me. He asked me what happen and I told him. He said he had to right me a ticket because his supervicer was there. I Went to court and the ticket was dropped. Oh the reason i was out riding and not wearing my gloves beouse i left them over my sisters house and was on my way to get them. Thats
my story. After getting the bike home that night, the front tire had a bubble in it the size of a golf ball. Well thats my story.

Glad to hear that you are still in one piece after that. Just another reminder for everyone to gear up!

Good thing you were wearing gear! Good deal that you were able to walk away from that accident. Heal up and hope you're on 2 wheels soon.

Hey, that sounded pretty bad, but at least you are up walking around. How is the wrist? The bike can be repaired, but I know how you feel. Get better!!!
