| AS MOST OF YOU ALL READY KNOW I WAS IN A ACCIDENT IN MY WILDCAT ON APRIL THE 13TH. I HAD A SLOW SPEED ROLLOVER ONTO THE SIDE AND I STUCK MY HAND OUT AS A REFLEX WHEN FALLING . THE ROLLBAR/ROOF CRUSHED MY LEFT HAND AND I WAS AIR LIFTED TO CHARLESTON GENERAL TRAUMA CENTER FOR EMERGENCY SURGERY. I CAME HOME LAST WEDNESDAY AFTER THE SECOND SURGERY ON MY HAND. THEY HAD TO REMOVE MY INDEX FINGER AND I ALSO HAD A LOT OF DAMAGE TO MY THUMB. I WILL BE ONGOING EXTENSIVE THERAPY AND POSSIBLY MORE SURGERY ON MY HAND. IF YOU ARE FAINT OF HEART OR CAN'T LOOK AT GRUESOME PICS I ADVISE YOU NOT TO OPEN THE FOLLOWING LINK. THIS IS JUST A REMINDER TO US ALL TO COACH YOURSELF TO NEVER STICK YOU ARMS OUT WHEN CRASHING. IT IS YOUR BODYS NATURAL INSTINCT AND ALWAYS TOLD MY SELF I NEVER WOULD BUT SOME THINGS WE CANT CONTROL.ENJOY THE PICS. ALSO I WANT TO THANK AGAIN EVERYONE WHO HELPED ME THROUGH THIS TIME AND FOR ALL THE PRAYERS.

| Glad you're home. Thanks for the pics and advice. As an ex-road racer I know in a rollover your hands can fly up/out. That's why many use window nets and arm restraints. Nets also keep debris from coming in with you. You can also break your wrist trying to hold onto the steering wheel during a crash. I welded a grab handle to the top of the cage(between the seats) to hang onto. Also, if you wear after market retraints, you can keep your hands in by grabbing your shoulder harness. So . . . all of us should practise what we would do in an accident like yours. Thanks for sharing. | |

| Hope your hand gets better soon man...just keep your chin up and realize it will take time for you to get use of it back...my buddy went thru the same thing a few years ago when he got his caught in a round baler...he was a brick layer and he would have himself in tears in the back yard trying to pick up brick with his hand. He now only has 4 fingers you touch the inside of his thumb he thinks it is his pointer finger....just take your time with it and you will bounce back before you know it...they wanted to remove his hand...he is now laying brick again.... | |

| I always preach to my kids to keep their hands and arms in their rzr170. I was playing around in their ride this summer, and turned it on it's side. First thing I did was put my arm out to catch myself, and sure enough the kids seen me. Hard to explain something that I preach to them why I did it. Point is, it's a bad reflex. Hope your doing good. | |
