Im Tumbling and I don't know where I am or what happened. Where am i going? As i'm tumbling i am trying to find myself and where i am. I cant get any grip and im feeling a burning sensation. I have no clue where i am. How did i end up like this? I've been working all week and i wanna do something fun. I wake up and sit on the couch and watch tv. It's so boring and i have nothing to do. I get a call from my friend. He asks if i want to go riding and maybe hangout at his house for a bit. I tell him yeah i have nothing to do, let me ask my dad. I ask my dad and he said sure but he didn't want me to go. So i told my friend, Kyler,come to my house and well go ride. He gets to my house and we get ripping. We went down the road and to the power …show more content…
I start to pull up some wheelies and i was doing good. I could ride one for probably a quarter mile. He passes me and i stay behind and i put my left knee on the seat and stand the bike up into a wheelie. Im in the wheelie and i'm going really good and all asuden i lose balance and my hands come off the handle bars and go to grab for them and i grab the front brake and when the bike lands the front wheel can't move so everything goes down. I was going about 50 mph. I hit the ground and start tumbling. I'm trying to get a grip on where i am and what's going on. When i stop i get up and kyler turns around and comes back to me. I try to get back on my bike but he says no. i look at myself and i'm all scratched up and there is a gash in my elbow down to the bone and my clothes are all tore up. Im standing there with blood running everywhere and he tells me to just leave the bike on the side of the rode and get it ces. later. I hop in his side by side and we head to my house and when we get there i get in the car and head to the hospital. I get to the hospital and the nurses get me in and scrub my wounds up and rinse them off. It was excruciating. After they get done pumping me full of pain medication and getting x-rays all i had was a gash on my elbow, both legs scraped down the sides, both arm tore up good, and few minor scratches here and there. I didnt get admitted, i got to go home that
I was feeling really good in this mud. My new bike was cornering perfect and hooked up so well. I was flying by guys! Half of the guys in the practice raced open class and were on 450s. I raced the lites class on a 250. You could tell if you passed a 450 just by the deep thumping sound that they made. After passing 15 to 20 guys I got really squirrely in the whoops. Almost losing it and going down, a couple guys closed up the gap I had between us. I proceeded riding not letting up a bit. Coming around the first corner on my last lap, I passed a rider on a 450. On the exit of the corner my front tire cross rutted and I slid out. In my mind I had to get up very quickly. I jumped up, grabbed my handle bars. I had my bike up and was about to hop on. All of the sudden I am on the ground and there is the guy I just passed going over the bars after hitting me. I tried to get up but I couldn’t. Trying and trying my legs were not cooperating. Bikes were flying around me. I finally crawled off the track not getting any yellow flags from the track officials. Finally, one of the track guys came over to me. I was very angry at the time. He asked me, “Are you okay?” I responded in a shout, “Do I look okay? I just crawled off the track with 20
I was sitting in a basement that smelled bad and was stuffy, I needed to get out of there. I was with my friend who liked to ride bikes. So, we decided to ride bikes. Outside we only had 1 normal bike, the other was an old bike with a banana seat on it. I lost a coin toss so I had to ride the trashy bike that had trouble even going straight. There was a trail down at the park where we would ride the bikes. We thought we would go there first and then go climb on playground after. At the very beginning of the trail there’s this difficult hill that goes pretty fast and shoots you right at a left turn. If you didn’t slow down and turn fast enough you would crash.
Logan has been acting up since I arrived. He keeps trying to go in the kitchen and get juice after Miss Orbach has told him several times he can have juice with dinner but right now he has to have water. He kept screaming that he was thirsty. Miss Orbach explain to him that this isn't going to do anything but make him thirstier and that's why he should have water.
I got scared I tried to hold him back but I couldn’t I also thought that the group of men were going to jump him but it wasn’t the case, the guys were scared, one of the guys girlfriend started screaming he was just in rage in attack mode he didn’t look normal at all. My neighbor came out and helped me get him on the ground and then I started calling his family his mother and his aunt. He didn’t want me to call his mother because she put him through a lot growing up so they did not have the best relationship.
I am writing early this morning because. I got up a bit early but this change in our routine is not cool. I love that we get to talk every day. I can't stop thinking about you .
We turn onto the busy street accelerating up to the speed limit, as we're both jamming out to the song called Space Mother. We approach a green light in the right lane of traffic, going by a big line of cars in the opposite lane waiting to turn left. In a spilt second my improving mood was struck with shock, as we approached a newly changed yellow light, my friend gives the gas a quick tap to boost his speed a little bit, mean while I can see the big oil field truck turning right into our path. I'm frozen in fear not being able to say anything. While my friend was unable to see because his view is blocked from the up coming intersection by the traffic in the lane next to him. My hands are stuck to the dash to help brace my self for the impact, as he steps on the brakes. I hear the very brief squealing of our pickups tires. Then came the crumpling of the smaller S-10 as it impacted the one ton pickup at 40 mph. Sending me straight into the windshield and making a perfect head shape indentation in the glass, while popping the entire windshield out. My knee area on my pants had taken the red paint off the dash. My knees had smashed the dash into three different section.
My Dearest Christina, since the day that I took you to Blu jam I knew that I loved you. We both can remember that day rather well. I uber-ed you to my house, we drove to Blu jam and listened and sang along to many songs together, many of them oldies love songs, we ate, grabbed some coffee at Alfred's coffee on Melrose ave, we drove to Beverly Hills and up the mountain until we reached the top and we stared at the San Fernando valley from a top the mountain, it truly was a breathe taking sight, you I mean, not the view.
After Sky told me I will be performing live, I went in front of a mirror and begin dancing around to see if I look sexy. I mean, I know I can dance around and do some moves, but never have I dance sexually or tease a man before while dancing to a sexual song. This is definitely a new experience that I will be encountering. I was able to find some new moves while dancing in front of a mirror that I can use tonight to perform.
Enjoying the wind rushing around my body, I remember feeling free, watching the earth pass by so quickly. Immediately after waving to a fellow cyclist, I looked back to the road, and realized that I had taken the corner too wide going too fast! I didn’t know it at the time, but my Strava GPS tracking later said I was going 53 mph. I went off the edge of the road. After hitting a sage brush I flew then tumbled for 40+ feet. I ended up with a broken neck and jumped facet between vertebra c6 and c7. At the time I thought I had just gotten the wind knocked out of me, and maybe some sense beat into me. I thought that I would be ok, although I knew that my bike was not. I called my bride to come save me and give me a ride home. I took the day off, thinking that I just needed some time to recover and to tough it out. After a few days I finally went to the doctor. They told me that I was lucky to be alive, and began to chastise me for not coming in sooner. They told me that I should not be walking, or doing anything else for that matter ever again. After talking further, they told me that I had a chance of making a full recovery after surgery. They told me that surgery was an absolute must and recovery would take at least a year. Immediately I was put on an activity restriction, meaning no more of the physical demands of my body. I was given a 15 pound weight restriction, meaning I could not lift more than a single gallon of milk. All of the
It all started when school l was out. I hopped on my bike and rode it two feet and the chain snapped in half and then I got distracted and went the wrong way and thought I seen my grandma's house but it
(Carburetor) was corroded so we gave it to the shop and they fixed it, but unfortunately it took them half a year to do so. Then one day I got a picture of my bike, my dad texted me. He also texted that it was done, but the day we got it was raining a lot, and it was super muddy so we couldn't go out and ride it, but I would have loved to ride it in the mud I mean obviously there’s a reason it’s called a dirt bike. But then a week later I started riding it and realized I was only in first gear
We go around that ring, me constantly squeezing with my legs to keep Bart going. I was not controlling Bart as well as I could. He was cutting corners and leaning in. As we are about halfway around the ring, I am still not in the rhythm, and something strange happens. I feel myself flying through the air, flipping as I fall. It felt like forever, though I know it was only a few seconds. I landed hard, hitting first my head and tumbling, surprisingly, in a sitting up position. Oww, I thought, as I surveyed my sand-encrusted half chaps, and tried to dust myself off. By now, Kat had come over and seemed worried. She asked me if I could stand, Luckily I could, and she asked if I could feel my legs, and I could. Kat said that I was probably fine, so I could keep riding. I was scared to get back on Bart, but I did
I know its odd to crave something I've never tasted before and I know I shouldn't be thinking things like this. I fall asleep to the thought of you and dream of you. I crave you. I want you. I need you.
You often cross my mind. My friends tell me I’m crazy. Maybe I am. At times, it’s tempting to ask our friends how you’re doing. But I don’t bother.
We got to walk around and visit with him. He had a pretty good sized room. My parents had to sleep in a chair and on a couch the whole time. While we were up there the bathroom that was in the room had flooded the whole entire room we had to move everything to a new room. That was the best part, it made everyone laugh and for the first time in probably about a month my mom smiled and laughed. The day finally had to come to an end and we had to part our ways. There were some tears, a lot of tears. More by my mom than anyone else, and eventually after the goodbyes my aunt came and picked me and Dakota up to head
