This is what happens when your quad kicks you sideways off a lip! This is NOT a video I ever wanted to make but I had the footage so here it is. Id like to say I'm ok after this but the reality is I'm pretty messed up. I have four totally broken ribs on the right-side rear of my rib cage below my shoulder blade and multiple cracks around the side and front of my ribs, Pretty much the whole right side of my body got hammered as the quad catapulted me onto the ground HARD as I was in fourth gear off the lip. This is the second time I've had this happen on this quad and honestly think its because the Raptor 700 is a top heavy quad. Its an honest mistake to make when your dealing with natural lips in a dried out riverbed but I've always been able to ride it out on my LTR-450. I was at the Pawnee Grassland Main Draw OHV Area and was about an hour+ from the hospital. It was the most painful ride EVER for me and pretty scary too since I was worried about internal and lung bleeding. They did nothing for me at the hospital except scan my ribs and drug me up. Luckily I had no internal bleeding but they found some other health problems in my C-Scan so maybe it was kind of a good thing for me. Broken ribs like mine are the worst because I cant use my right arm (hardly at all) cant sleep on my back, front or sides so I have to try and sleep sitting up and also they don't wrap or brace your ribs in anyway so with every breath or movement you feel this cracking and snapping! It is hard to stand up, sit down, breath or even move at all so for me this TOTALLY SUCKS!! I'm almost a week into recovery as I'm posting this video and I can tell I wont be riding anything for at least a couple months but I plan to get back out there and ride because riding is life and this is not the first time I've been screwed up from these quads but as I am 43yrs old I might just have to tone it down a bit but we'll see. As always thank you for watching and if you like the video please hit that like button and give me a subscribe if you dig the content! Also Please don't laugh at me making motorcycle noises because I wasn't doing it on purpose LOL!
