Hey don't go ruining my bad reputation 😝. I don't think the crew with me today will ever believe the phrase, " it gets easier from here" no sooner we conquer one slick muddy obstacle they find more to keep from getting bored. I think it was a conspiracy to make me lose weight and miss my dinner. Never underestimate the perseverance of a hungry fat man getting to a great meal. 🤣
it gets easier from here became.a joke but we all wouldn't trade it for anything. 2 hrs to go about a half mile good times .

Ok, I just got back from the Hospital where they flew @100Acre

He was running rear in our group of 15 machines Saturday and about 4pm they noticed he wasn't behind the group. Long story short, he took a very slick off camber and his Pioneer slid and hit a bottom rut hard enough to eject him from the vehicle harshly.

Dr. indicate he has a few cracked ribs which of course only hurts when you breathe. Not ruling out other injuries until more tests come in.

Thanks to the great group of members you got to him first rendering what aid they could to comfort him and notifying EMS he needed emergency medical assistance.

Thanks to the other group that got his machine trail worthy so it could be driven back the camp.

Dan's dog Bayleaf was pretty traumatized, doesn't appear to be injured, she calmed down lying on the couch wondering what going on.

Many thanks to Campbell County EMS who showed up 6 miles from nearest road on a customized Honda Pioneer 1000-5 no less and got him off the trails and to the ambulance.

@Hondasxs and I will be packing all his camping gear and load his trailer Sunday morning at 9:30 AM. Cant remember who took his machine to thier cabin but will find you in the morning to load it up.

Plan is when Dan is discharged I will pick him up and he can stay with me until he feels like driving or I will drive him and his truck to his place in NC when he is up to it.

I'm as guilty as anyone about not wearing my seat belt, but this is a stark reminder anything can go wrong in an instant catching us unprepared.

Appreciate the report Jackal.

Cracked/Broken/Bruised ribs all suck. Hopefully that is the extent of the damage for his Gnomeness and he is back on the trails soon.

Thanks to everyone for doing their part to help out where they can. It’s stuff like this that makes this truly the greatest group of people to hang out with.

Oh no....

Sounds like he will live to tell the tale, thankfully. If you're gonna crash with a group of people, he picked the right ones.

Jackal,

Thank you so much for the update on Dan, the outstanding service you rendered to him today, and finally for the wonderful experience that you provided to all of us lucky enough to make it to the Mayhem.

Ouch that hurt
I suspect that might be quite the succinct and understatement of a post.

Glad you’re doing well enough to hop on and make a post. Take care of those ribs and all the other sore spots that pop up. Certainly don’t heal as quick as we did at sixteen anymore.

Hopefully your nurse is sexy, single and really into gnomes. 🤣

Hope you are feeling OK this morning Gnome Master. Be thankful that none of those ladies you were trying to court didn't work out. They would be telling you everything you did wrong, how you cannot do this anymore, and you need to sell the Pioneer's....LOL

@100Acre Glad you felt well enough to post, and tell people in your own words. I know your hurting like hell. Once we get your gear secured will be up to see you with clean clothes, phone charger, etc. and hopefully discharged.

Bayleaf is moving slowly too, she's limping with her front legs, seems to pain her crawling not jumping up on couch. Set her up a dog bed with a blanket familiar to her on floor, but she wants to be by someone. Taken just now, she's a great well behaved dog for what she's been through.
