When I woke up in the hospital, I decided that the life of a pro motorcycle racer may not be in by best interest.

Jon, that didn't look very good. I use to watch a lot of AMA Racing once upon a time. I use to also watch the Sidewinders up in Washougal, WA when I was a kid. A good friend of my wife down in Southern California's father raced AMA, Baja 1000 and other off-road races on Harleys winning many championships until being slammed during an off-road event ending up in a coma for a while. He now works at Home Depot in Corona, CA. My ex-Chiropractor treats quite a few of the big moto-cross guys down in the Inland Empire. Most of the factory practice tracks are in the area.

I was in critical care after a mishap on a stretched Honda three-wheeler back in '93. Never have recovered completely.
