It’s been a year since my crash…

Never did get surgery for these breaks and now my foot is about 3 degrees out of placement and although I did a ton of PT, hired a personal trainer I am left with a leg that does not perform as it did prior to the accident.  I went hiking in the White Mountains a few weeks ago and it was at that time my leg weakened quickly to the point it felt like a peg leg.

It’s been awhile…


I haven’t posted for a while mainly because I am still not riding.  Into my 8th month of recovery from my motorcycle accident back in October 2015, I am regaining strength and flexibility day by day.  Yet, as hard as I have worked especially since March 21st, 2016-the day I became weight-bearing, I feel I have such a long way to go.

Even Charley has accidents…


February 17 2016

I just heard yesterday that Charley Boorman was in a motorcycle accident in Portugal.  He broke his left tibia, fibula and right ankle requiring surgery.

CB had accident today in Portugal @ Global launch of Triumph Explorer

I bet he’s home by now and beginning his road to recovery.  I can relate as my road to recovery just got longer even though my cast was removed on Feb. 12.
