long story short, last sunday i spent 2 hours in the hospital. had a cat scan, sang the alphabet, walked a straight line while counting to 10 with my finger on my nose (LTM stuff).

i got a concussion some nasty road rash (read big rock rosh) an extremely soar collar/shoulder

 

i had short term memory loss for the better part of 2 days and still dont remember sunday at all. not even the trip or loading up the bike or even planning to go riding at all that day, nothing.

 

worst thing is i was told i was only making a very slow turn around on the dirtbike. and the front tire slid out too which i did a head plant onto a ~12x12 rock.

 

just glad i was wearing the bucket, if i was that bad with it on.... i would be mucked up bad veggie style if i didnt

Glad you had your helmet on and lived to tell the story.

 

Just another tidbit for others, blows to the head still have not been ruled out in playing a contributing factor of Alzheimer's. Got to remember we all have a future.
