Nateylight intro

[Nateylight]

Hey you guys my names Nate Poole and I’m a senior at jmu but this is my first semester in MM. always been into cars even though I don’t drive anything too special rn (2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee). I worked at Blue ridge powersports in Harrisonburg as a tech until I broke my back in several places on my cbr600rr (graffiti edition) leaving me paralyzed waist down but I have been in rehab since and regained most function! Like I said I’ve always been into cars and bikes I helped build my brothers 93 foxbody with a 67mm turbo putting 600 to the ground and built up my old Jeep from stock form before parting with it for something a little more practical. My only other ride is my vintage mini bike at the moment.
Thanks for the add,
Can’t wait to meet everyone!

Welcome! It's been nice talking to you on GroupMe. Looking forward to seeing you at the track. Most of the photos on this post seem broken.

Welcome and glad you're on the recovery/mend to regain more function! Hoping for a full recovery; that seems scary.

I love those bikes. I had a 2008 600rr in Red that i miss dearly. i tracked mine the year i got it (2009) and unfortunately it was stolen from me the following spring; i've been out of motorcycles since.

nice bike, sorry to hear about the accident but here's hoping you work your way back to full function!

[Nateylight]

Thanks you guys! Does anyone know how to attach photos in the replies or the best way to post pictures in a thread? It was the xrays from my back before and after surgery and then just my cars and mini bike.

i typically use Tapatalk (app) via my phone and you can attach any pictures that way. Otherwise you'll need to find a hosting site (imgbb.com as an example) and copy/paste the bbcode for the picture.

Thank you, I was trying to avoid downloading the app but that did work much easier than anything I tried lol.

Oh wow, that's terrifying. Thanks for introducing yourself, are you getting around ok? Do you think you'll want to get back on a moto someday?

[Nateylight]

Yeah im getting around ok now i just dont have feeling in certain parts of my left leg so i can walk, but not the greatest and i cant really run. The accident was June 30th of 2018 and i was in a wheelchair for about five or six months after that constantly doing therapy until i  could finally stand and use forearm crutches (the walter jr crutches from breaking bad) and then i had a cane for a while but now I usually just try to walk as much as i can as part of my rehab. As far as bikes go, i think my mom would literally murder me if i got another one, that being said i want a bobber sometime in the later future still lol.
