I am very glad she is ok (at least mostly) and nothing life threatening!

If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, you probably high sided.

Thanks Dave. Yeah, she's okay. Going into knee surgery on Thursday. it'll be a long road to full recovery, but hey, at least there is a recovery!
Yup, she was laying in the ER, basically not knowing which way is up with dried blood on her face, and the guy is explaining how she has to appear in court. I'm not a cop hater, but I may have informed him of my thoughts on his actions (in a fairly non-dick way, while still getting my point across).
I hope the surgery will go well, and that Andrea will have a speedy and full recovery. Looking at the bike, things could have been a lot worse. Sobering, but helpful, reminder of what can happen riding a bike.
Holy crap, I'm really glad she's alright! Most wrecks that look like that don't have good endings.
oh, and as for the bike, Honda Polish will fix that right up.

My colleague had to go through a similar thing. In her bike crash, it was a one-vehicle accident that didn't block traffic. An ambulance picked her up before any LEO's appeared at the scene, but while waiting at the hospital a cop decided to show up to cite and fine her for "failure to keep vehicle upright."
Anyway, glad Andrea is ok for the most part. It appears she does not suffer from a lack knowing people who'll help her get back on two wheels!

That tire looks a couple psi low.
Glad she's alright!

Looks like you were using the right handed fork stretcher for inverted forks, they're too strong for traditional forks!
Wow that one looks a bit painful. Glad she's ok.
Wow, glad she's ok! Here's to a speedy recovery!

Glad she will be able to make the decision to get back on two or not.
