Inlinefour seriously injured!

**Scorpygirl** · 4th November 2006, 22:04

John (inline4) will always be part of KB as far as I am concerned. And those that want to think about kicking him out just stuff off cause youse aint worth the shit you write!!! It's not about riding a bike, it's about the biker in ya - you Fng tossers!! In Ulysses we have guys that are in their 80s that can't ride anymore but they are still part of the family and welcome at rides and rallies anytime. IN4 is what KB should be all about.....an online family!!

I can't think what else to say at the mo cause it's too gutting!!!

It's the soul that makes a biker not the bike.

Once you are part of KB we dont let you go away.

You be me to saying it crashe. But I couldn't have put it any better.

There is no leaving KB ever. Even those who are no longer with us still have their log in. Those who have chosen to do something else can still long in again at any time.

Donna - I've got a ton of music and audio books on my computer. I'd be happy to throw a ton of it onto a couple of dvd's for John. It must be hell staring at a ceiling all day. Least listing to some books via headphones and his laptop could give his a distraction.

well said sky..... very well said.

there was a guy over in the states, he didnt ride very often, as he needed an oxygen pack to be able to do anything. but, i can tell you, he was the most respected biker i have ever known. despite the fact i never spoke to him online, but i saw him mentioned everywhere.

he was not able to ride, but he was a biker before it was cool to be one.

Just caught up with this.
What can I say that hasn't been said?

I'll throw a prayer upwards for you guys.

That sucks!

Might start a new thread so everyone can see

Has a new thread been started re this?
IL4 and I only swapped words online once, and they were heated. But even though he needn't have, he PM'd me and sent me a heartfelt apology.
Speaks volumes to me.
Please let me know if you've got some sort of trust fund up and running for Donna and John. I'll put a collection bucket in our shop and do my best to have it filled asap.

If you read this IL4....dig it in.

Pete @ WMCC.

Hi Donna.
You dont know me neither does John, but hopefully what I say might be able to help.

Being part of the Emergency service we have been made aware of Critical incident stress , and the situations that can lead to this.
Something I have learnt is that it doesnt just apply to us in the emergency services, it can affect anybody involved in a stressfull situation such as yours.
I`m not saying that you must go and get help in fact its not about someone telling you what you should do, instead all i can say is that from what I`ve seen here in these posts is that there is an awfully lot of people that care about others so you should have no Problems finding someone to talk to.
Like everyone else has said , Feel free to PM me if you want to talk.I Know people that can help and will contact them if you want tho Know more.
Cheers and all the Best to you And John.

I also Had a friend that lost an Arm due to a M/cycle accident, and have experienced first hand the Stress and pain the family goes through not to mention the Patient as well.

Crikey - I was gunna send you a PM but I'm old and cant figure out who is posting from whos log in any more but...

WHEN IL4 wants to use a PC - PM me an I'll see what I can do. I can get an LCD screen and maybe rig it to a stand so he can see it or something? I usually have a spare keyboard or can rig a wireless thing or something?? Stuffed if I know but I have access to some technology and a team of techs in ChCh plus all the clever ChCh KBrs...

Whatever we can do eh?

Look - it's early and this is a BIG thing. Its going to take more than a couple of weeks to sort through. Don't make rash decisions until everything settles and no thoughts about KB other than belonging to this community for a long time eh?

This is a crappy hand Johns been dealt but how you play the game is whats important. Again, when it comes time to draw another card, let us know and somehow, we will help OK.....

He will always be part of this community, just as he will always be welcome on the Stunts USA website (Yeah, right). Donna please know that you have friends all over NZ that you haven't yet met & we all want to help in any way we can. Our dog ate a large nut (as in bolt & nut) this weekend so is in doggy hostpital at the moment, we are upset at this but now I have a new sense of perspective. Take care and remember, time heals most things.
