George's Story
Life
In February, I bought a 2003 Yamaha Roadstar motorcycle (1600 cc's -- a serious bike). I ride it everywhere and take long trips with it. It runs like a dream. I sometimes will ride with various motorcycle clubs (1 patch, 3 patch, 1%s -- it doesn't matter) in various events such as Rolling Thunder. I have also attended several biker parties, including a Hells Angels party.
I also have taken up skydiving as a sport. That probably was a mistake. A little background is necessary here. I jump at Skydive Orange in Orange, ...Expand for more
Virginia. We jump out at 13,500 feet and drop to 5500 feet before we deploy our parachutes (about a 50 second freefall). Once the chute fully deploys, it takes another 6 minutes to get to the ground.
I said that it "was a mistake" because on my 8th jump (July 3rd), the freefall went well, the chute deployed, but I flared the parachute too late and so I hit the ground at 14 mph. I suffered a compound fracture of my right femur and spent 3 days in the hospital. I am presently on crutches and will be so for several weeks to come.
