    So Z-man Had Too Much Fun

    So A few of you might know about this but as I amnot in front of my G4 tower I have not seen any of the emails that may have been sent to me. I had a motorcycle accident. The first one in my life as a matter of fact that let me with more than just a scrape. I was riding with my good friend Claw Williams and I went right over a washout that I had NO clue was even there. Both of us were in full riding gear and had cell phones and Camel Bacs.

    The end result is that I boke my tibia and fibia in 2 places WITH the best boots on the market protecting me. I am CERTAIN had I not been wearing those boots I would have suffered SEVER compund breaks and extensive damage to my leg. My friend Clay escaped almost unscathed thankfullly and took pictures! While we waited for the paramedics of course. Although I hate that this happened I do not think it was becuase of stupid driving or show off behavior. This was just a crummy situationthat could have been FAR worse without both good preparation on our parts as well as Clay's level headed and calm behavior. My parents made 180 and drove out from CA in 20 hours.

    I am being treated like royaly and now on day 4 I have started eating at last.

                  Geez man. That wasn't very bright. I am glad to know that you made out as well as you did though. The two things that I think you did right here were having the proper gear including cell phones and riding with a buddy, even if he did fall in too. The one thing you did wrong was failing to inspect the terrain. Trouble is I'm sure that you ride there fairly regularly and though you knew the lay of the land. I don't want to sound too holier-than-thou. I am glad that you're alright with the exception of the leg. I would hate to think what would happen to the world of paintball without videos of you grinning while firing automags at insanely high speeds. Get well soon and buy your friend a beer for me, for taking the time to take pictures.

                    Sorry to here you are layed up.

                    Thank goodness for wearing the right equipment!

                    I will be in Colorado in a little over a week, riding, probably up in Fairplay or near there. I can see that I will need to be cautious.

                    Hope you make a speedy recovery. I am guessing you will out of commission for 8 to 10 weeks. Hope you don't get too bored.

                    Glad to hear you are OK, get well soon!
                    ......You know you want one!!

                            I actually knew about this several days ago, so I've already said all the nice stuff to him.
