Maybe now that I crashed my bike I'll be riding a little slower. Although I couldn't really go very fast even when I wanted to.... it had a hard time maintaining 120 mph.

Crash and Bike are two words that don't go well together!!!

It was quite an experience .... I went into a curve way too hot. I had the bike leaned over to the point that the frame was scraping on the pavement. I was turning as sharp as possible at 60 mph but the road was turning sharper. At the point the bike went off the pavement it stood up throwing me directly into a tree. I hit the tree so hard that my full face helmet tore itself off my head and flew another 100 feet with my glasses still inside and the strap done up. Miraculously I was fortunate enough to pick myself up off the ground. It took about a half hour before I was able to stand without going light headed. Once my strength came back I was able to jump on the back of my buddy's bike and carry on... no broken bones just scrapes and bruises from the neck down, damaged pride and a little deeper realization that my days are numbered and not up yet.
