Freak Accident

Today, my boyfriend's best friend crashed his motorcycle.  We watched it happen... it was one of the scariest things I've ever seen.  He was probably going 40-45 mph and his front brake locked up.  His transmission jammed.  And then the bike just laid down.  He rolled.  He didn't seem very hurt at first but after a while he was in a lot of pain.  My boyfriend called 9-1-1 and the ambulance came.  We were all really scared but he's okay now.  He's got some really bad road rash and he broke his collar bone.  The doctor said he'll be okay though.  He's just got to be in a sling for 4-6 weeks.  So, that stinks.  But he's okay and that's what matters.  But if he wouldn't have had a helmet on there's no doubt in my mind that he wouldn't be here right now.  But I'm soooooooo glad he is.  I'm glad he had his helmet on.  I'll never ever ride without a helmet.  I've seen what can happen....
