for anyone that's wondered what happened to Nerobro...

[Tyger]

...wonder no more. I was waiting to find the web page with the photographic evidence, and now that I have it, here you go.

Before you click on the link, let me set it up. Nero, Skreemer and Az have gotten into motorcycles. And they went on a riding trip out in "da sticks". I now throw it over to a post from Tinker's guild :

I wrecked my motorcycle. Breaking both arms. My humorus, right at the ball (shattered the ball) and my radius and ulna, turning the heads of both bones into several peices. My left arm now has a large plate and six screws holding it togother, and last monday I had the pins and external fixator removed from my right hand.

http://www.zodnetworks.com/~shorah/greg has pictures of me and my gear post wreck.

Yes I was stupid. I tried to catch up to a group of faster riders and misjudged a corner, slightly. 45mph cartwheels are not good for nero's.

Yes I will be riding again. My bike survived with a dented tank, bent handlebars, broken glass over the speedometer, broken headlight, and leaky fork seals. If only I would have come out so well. I already have replacement parts.

I've seen Nero a while ago, and he's in VERY high spirits. Now the joke of it all is that he's PROBABLY gonna start playing paintball before I will.

So the long story short, Nero's not dead, just healing up from some pretty bad injuries. The internet rumors of his demise are greatly exagerated.

I still can't wait to see what he makes out of all the nuts, bolts, pins, etc removed from his arm! :)

Now that would be a show...

"You have 10 hours to make something out of all the parts removed from you."

[Temo Vryce]

Well it's good to hear that's he's not dead, though I am sorry to hear about the accident. Best wishes from myself and my family go out to you Nerobro. Get well soon.

wow that looks lots like ohio accept its a lil to hilly. Injurys suck no doubt, especially when they charge you 300 dollars for an ambulence ride to a hospital 5 minutes awy.

[nerobro]

the ride in the ambulance was about 40 minutes. all told from time of crash to time of first morphine injection was two hours.

I already hit the limit on my insurance. $750 into it. Total bill will be somewhere in the 11k range. Thank god for insurance. :-)

The ride was really pretty. I intend to be back on two wheels for the toys for tots ride in december. I expect to play paintball +- a week of that.

Dayspring... we have been considdering what to do with the bits. First suggestions were a windshield mount :-)

[LittlePaintballBoy]

Yeesh. Good to hear your alright.

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

Glad to see your alright, I've had two buddies that have bailed. Both not too long ago and both very lucky considering the circumstances...

Left Over Parts:

You should make parts for your Paintball Gun, or even better a new Paintball Gun...

We CAN rebuild him, Faster, Stronger..................
It's Nerobro, the $11,000 man.

[hAppy]

I wish him a quick recovery. Sounds harsh.... well lesson learned, glad he's alive.

[Sac]

glad to hear hes ok, hope hes back and 100% soon.

[Destructo6]

I did something similar 3 years ago to the day. I got away with a near-crippling broken ankle (talor type 2). Thank God for leather. Oddly, the medical bill is almost exactly the same as Nero's.

Well, Nero, I hope you heal up well and get back to riding soon.

[LaW]

Wow just posting this now tyger? :)

at least your ok nero

[Evil1]

Glad to hear your ok man. I don't know you, but still glad to hear your alright. Being injured sucks huh? I got my foot run over by a forklift about 7 months ago and couldn't walk on my foot for 6 weeks. Luckily my injuries were very minor for that type of accident. I only had a severe sprain. My toes could have been cut off due to the steel toe boots I had been wearing. Anyway, glad to hear you are ok and hope you get to ride and play some ball again soon.
