Yip, they wont be rebuilding that one. (It was fixed up once before when a drunk driver ran into it while it was parked at a crash scene).

BC.

All thoughts and wishes out to the family and friends, I hope his recovery is full and speedy ....
Need to keep as many bikers on the road safe and with great people out there like the police then maybe we can all have bit of confidance that somewhere somehow thay are prevent others from being hurt....

He is sedated and stable but by no means out of the woods just yet.

Very fortunate there were no lamp posts or fences to hit where he came off.

A few pics ...

BC.

He also has fractures to the spine (not thought to be major at this stage). Responding to hospital staff and his family, (wife and three kiddies..) are being supported by family, friends and staff.

All the best to you brother....

BC... point him to this one day when he is up to it (and all the Katman crap has been made to "vanish..."). Its good to see support out there in a time of need.

Any time man. PM me and I'm yours... that's not as bad as it sounds...

For the cops that know him - I'm tempted to get him a Dunkin' Donuts voucher and a get well card. Would that go down ok, or be taken as "having a go?"
