Very sorry to read the news.  No report is ever good of course.  But even sadder this close to home.

Sorry to hear about your brother Charlie.  Hope for speedy recovery for him.  Was he wearing a helmet?

Prayers going out in SW Mo. Just had a buddy go through the same thing fortunately he healed up quickly. Patience and a strong will to get through. We will keep him in our thoughts and prayers. Keep us informed on his status.

Thank you everybody, just want to report he is at home for a pretty long recovery they had to remove half his knee cap he may need other surgery down the road. His head will take some time to heal also. he was wearing a half helmet. he says he will ride again. The trip we were going to take to the keys will wait till next year. I got to tell you it took me about 4 days be for I could get back on my bike, but I did.
