RE: Rider Down
Glad to hear Doug is OK, kinda had us scared for a while there.
Bikes and parts can be replaced, good people can't.
At least he has Snappy to keep him company for some extra time now.

Glad Doug's okay. Hope they got the stupid kids who weren't paying attention. We need to be able to charge idiots like this with attempted murder. Maybe THAT would get the attention of cagers who refuse to pay attention!

RE: Rider Down
Glad to hear that Doug is OK. As far as the bike, a body shop technician once told me "everything will straighten but the glass" I'm sure Doug will have the bike looking/riding like new in no time.Doug, keep us posted onhow you're doing.

RE: Rider Down
Got a little lump in my throat when I skimmed the topic and saw Dougs name involved.
Good to hear he got back up in one piece and it doesen't sound like his scoot is too bad off either. Hell, I know I would be hard pressed to wantto jump right back on, but it seems like exactly the thing Doug would do.
