You sound like a glass half full kinda guy.So the same day my beloved JL Sport was delivered, an older gentlemen pulled out in front of my motorcycle. Broke my patella, three metatarsals, four heel bones and totaled my bike.
Happened in Iowa where my folks live as I was PCS’ing from Kuwait with two rescued cats for my daughter (the crate). So my dad had to drive us to Virginia and trailer a uHaul since I’m in a full right leg cast (my mom picked out the colors) with a manual transmission.
With roughly 1000 miles on the odometer, clutch grenades on the homestretch just past Breezewood, PA on the MD border. Tow truck then proceeded to break down on the side of I-70. Pic taken waiting for our Uber 30 some miles north of Hagerstown.
Epilogue: The Hagerstown Jeep dealer was great. Fly wheel or something was back ordered long enough for me to graduate to a short cast so I could retrieve the Jeep myself. Paid her off this month with proceeds from my settlement. Life is good.
