Well Mark and Mom you have done it again, another excellent day out,
good turn out, a few people I'd meet before good to catchup with yous, and a lot more I hadn't met, sorry peps for not introducing myself.
I arrived just as you lot were leaving is that good timing or what, anyhow decided to play TEC for a while, following them cruisers those 109's are awesome looking bikes,

He had overcooked the corner on a Rocket 3, taken out a 5 wire fence and his bike was upside down, wedged behind a tree about 10 meters down a steep bank. He had come to rest beside the bike. The bank was steep enough that he had trouble climbing out.
He was unmarked and unhurt. He had already contacted friends who were arranging salvage.
There was nothing more I could do and so I left him to it after advising him to go and buy several lotto tickets. He was one very, very fortunate fellow and I think he realised that too.
he was still there when Richard Mc F and I passed, so I turned back to just to check, as you said, he was one very lucky man.
Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.
