I crashed my dirt bike.

Well last Saturday I went riding with some of the guys from church and I crashed pretty hard. I have a 2003 Honda CR 250R, which is very fast. I was following the guys up this dirt rode late in the afternoon, the sun was in my eyes and the dust was so bad I couldn't see. I should have backed off and waited for the dust to clear, but No, instead I rode into a rut in the rode and crashed at about 50 mph. I didn't hurt my bike accept for a broken front brake lever, but I ground off my finger nail and the flesh off my right pinky finger. I hit the ground real hard and slid for at least twenty five feet, but I was ok other than my finger. We cut off the hanging flesh and wrapped up my finger in a plastic bag and I went riding. It took a little while for me to settle down but then I was good. But, man oh man did it hurt to clean up later. So, my finger is still a mess but its healing and I should be good to go by next week. I'll keep you posted.
