Default Prayers please...

A friend of mine went down Saturday. A guy in a truck pulled out of a business driveway and did not look both ways. Lenny didn't have a chance. The guy panicked and stopped his truck blocking the entire street lane.
Lenny suffered a crushed pelvic, broken arm and a crushed wrist. He had surgery last night. I plan to visit him again today to see how he is doing.
The bike is totaled, a 2014 Denim black sporty.

Thanks for your prayers

A speedy, full, recovery for your friend. And a brand new bike.

Thoughts to Lenny. Get Well soon!

And get a lawyer and sue the crap out of that dumbass driver. If he loses enough money, MAYBE he'll start looking both ways.

Good luck Lenny. I'll send one up for ya man. Get back on the horse and enjoy your new bike when you're better. The new bike that his insurance company buys you that is!
