i almost died yesterday
all,
I almost died yesterday. I was 20 kilometers outside of ushuaia, going 70 mph and my front tire explodes. Throws me across the highway right into the path of an oncoming 18 wheeler. I manage to get the bike back on the right side of the road but the bike is going crazy. I lay it down on its side and go sliding down the highway. i seperate my self from the bike and it flips down the highwya. Closest to death as i have ever been. scared the piss out of me. cant believe i didn´t get hurt. not sure what to do now. the bike is jacked up and unridable. i want to get it up to BA and sell it...hopefully. i was wondering if there was someone in Buenos Aires that could help me or give me some direction. The bike is salvagable and luckily the crash bars protected the engine. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
i am unscathed. not a scratch or bruise. i can´t believe my luck. i am just EXTREMELY gratfull that i didn´t die.
Counting my blessings in Ushuaia,
Paul Hotze
