    Wow, Glad you're not worse off, but doesn't sound fun in any case. Bikes can be fixed.

    An mom would say, glad you're OK. Now don't do that again.


    Moose. I can't even imagine. I've seen elk take out a full-size truck. Not much left of either.
    Please enjoy being alive (and the meds).

    Sorry about the accident, hope you're up and hopping soon. Are you getting any moose steaks for your trouble?

    That Moose didn't have a little Racoon sidekick did he? That would explain a lot.
    Hope all heals well and bike feels better soon too!

    Glad your ok . Moose kill many every year in Canada, you have indeed been blessed with a BIG bag of horseshoes.
    btw did you keep the moose meat? Makes great jerky and sausage.
    Had a buddy crash into a car 12 days ago broken tib/fib compound fracture and he walked from car to see me today rods and screws do amazing things

    So sorry to hear! Glad you're still alive, just wish you could've dodged the moose as well as you dodged that bullet. Here's to hoping you have swift and complete recovery.

    A MOOSE?!?!? I hit a 7 point buck in '08. Certainly did ruin my day. 6 days in the hospital.
    Amazing how these Yamahas take a licking and keep on ticking.
    Do you remember the accident? I have no memory of mine, but they tell me I was conscious and alert.
    Glad to hear that you're on the mend. Now get back in the saddle.
