Glad you got it all sorted. I can't believe 3 guys were able to push the Ultra up that steep ramp and not drop it, impressive! Richco seems like a great dealership.

[@roadsandrevelations]

@72NortonCombat ..Nice to hear from you. Always appreciate the comments. I thought for a second they weren't going to make it but they had laser focus. The bikes weight is a beast.
Richco Harley Davidson have been amazing all the way.

[@RobZappone]

Well life is an adventure and you two are definitely having one! Either the good, bad and painful... I hope your operation goes well and you have a speedy recovery 🙏

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks @RobZappone... to quote a well known saying "life is like a box of chocolates" and you've got to take it as it comes. Stay tuned for the next installment. Nice to hear from you.

[@pakawatpimsaguan8806]

I am sorry you had to go through this, glad you guys made it home safe.

[@roadsandrevelations]

@pakawatpimsaguan8806 .. Thank you for your comment .. As the saying goes "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" we try to look for the positives amongst the negatives so going through this ordeal has helped us gain a whole new perspective on where we now live and the kindness of the people here.

[@gooddifferentadventures]

Wow what an adventure not of the good kind ! Hope you are recovering and we look forward to more adventures 🤗

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks for the well wishes @gooddifferentadventures. We will keep on keeping on. Nothing will slow us down ( maybe only momentarily)

[@DCGT703]

From one biker to another, just checking in to see how you're doing with your recovery. I'm from the U.S. in the D.C. area and my dad is a HOG from Quantico HD.

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks for the caring comment .. I'm doing ok and trying to work on the next episode. You'll be able to see the full outcome soon.. Give your Dad all my best from the HOG Chiang Mai Chapter👍

[@DCGT703]

@@roadsandrevelations Great to hear! Looking forward to catching the video.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

We all hope you're on the mend and will be adventring on two soon!

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks Eric for your comments and for following along. We will have an update coming along soon

[@602North]

Looks like everyone there treated you two so well. Such a stressful situation. $100 short notice is an exceptional price.

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Yes we were treated exceptionally well.
The ability to access and get an appointment with a specialist of your own choice here in Thailand is fast and efficient. Not like most developed western countries where it can take a long time.

[@simonwilson1211]

Glad you're on the mend!

[@roadsandrevelations]

Appreciate your comment and well wishes 👍

[@DiscoveringThailand]

Welcome home to chiang mai. Hope all goes well for your surgery. Be back on the bike in no time.

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks for your well wishes @DiscoveringThailand. We will update on the surgery in the next episode.

[@jackbree]

Ah now the story begins ,good luck with surgery etc,glad to see Air Asia looked after you

[@roadsandrevelations]

@DiscoveringThailand .. It's certainly a hands on journey through the medical system as you'll see... AirAsia were great .. good to see service still exists 👍

[@janyapanichwiboon475]

Get well soon ❤

[@old_butstillkicking]

Thank you .. much appreciated.

[@thatharleycouple]

Well that’s a bummer! Oh well memories are made of these types of incidents. Glad the damage isn’t too great ( to both John and the bike lol😊) Hope you guys will be back on the bike in the not too distant future. Hope to be heading over next year for Thai Bike Week so if you guys are attending it would be great to say hi. Whitey & Lisa (@thatharleycouple )

[@roadsandrevelations]

Thanks, Whitey and Lisa (@thatharleycouple) for your kind comment. Apologies for taking a while to get back to you. You're right about the memories something we won't forget in a hurry. The bike came off lightly so with me laid up and the bike off the road it's given us time to change a couple of things on it. What event have you got in mind for next year we are going to try to get to as many as we can and It would be great to catch up with you. We are followers of yours and the "Hogs Cogs and Two Aussie Flogs" Channel. Keep up the good work, ride safe and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
