his story:
going 15-20mph through some alley/cut-through thing to get around some traffic, friend on the back, went over some little hill, he was on the gas as he crested the hill, the front end picked up, and it was all over in another second or two. My guess is he turned the wheel and highsided it when weight got back on the front, but.... 15-20mph? :evileye: Whatever.... In an adrenaline frenzy, my brother tried to pick up the bike, realized his hand was totally messed up, tried to run off and blacked out. :vomit: His friend, who fared significantly better, called 911 I guess.
And yeah, he's going to be fine, so game on, lesson learned (I hope). He was in quite a bit of pain for 48+ hours though, drug cocktail wasn't keeping up. He's still taking some strong stuff now and is supposed to go back tomorrow to get surgery on his hand.
Haha, and no, his name (nickname), is Jeep. I think he and/or bike hit a tree at some point.
