My apologies, I forgot about the plaques. I'll get right on them.

I have been a bit busy. Just before Thanksgiving I got hit by a deer and went down on my right side. I was very lucky. I was wearing full gear, there was no following or on coming traffic, and I was only going about 30 mph. My injuries were limited to a really colorfully bruised right arm and a scraped elbow that did not require a bandage. Deer dead, bike totaled, Aerostich jacket wore through at the elbow, and my jeans wore through on the right bum but I had no road rash there. The plastic knuckle protectors on my gloves were really scuffed up. Progressive Insurance was good to work with. The team I worked with handles RV claims only; bikes, boats, campers, etc. I quickly got a fair price for the bike, accessories, and $500 towards the replacement of the jacket. I had a new replacement bike in a few weeks. The new bike is the 2024 version of the wrecked 2021 Honda NC750X.

Have a good holiday, again my apologies for forgetting about the plaques.

Boy do I feel like a jerk now for asking about the plaques!

Most important thing is that you're okay! Glad to see that above all else. I hit a deer over 20 years ago myself and it sucked. Progressive is great to work with, glad they hooked you up.
