Crash on Palomar *title change* - Page 4

Speed,
Thanks for posting on the Aprilia forum, I know you didn't have to do it. If you hadn't we would've never known about this accident about Mitch.

I was just on a ride with him last weekend and having a great time and I hope it won't be the last.

Again, many thanks. Looking forward to meeting you and your group some day and maybe do a ride.

Arnie

P.S.
Can you change my handle to Arnie? I don't know why I chose Old_Ridah, must be going senile.

No problem at all Arnie. SPACEBOY posted here with the pictures & after a little more info from him we were able to put the puzzle pieces together.

Thanks for keeping us in the loop & please let us know how we can help Mitch & his family.

Chances are we've crossed paths at some point, I used to be a moderator on the other Aprilia board before Todd decided to close it. Hope to meet you soon. It's people like you that help make motorcycling a tight knit community. Thank you!

Glad to hear he's ok Arnie.

Everyone involved including us at the scene was very shaken up. I am relieved and I have been thinking about him all day.

Our prayers are still with him.

I'm glad he's gonna be OK. It didn't look too bad at the scene except for head trauma. Full gear saves again!

husker4life · 02-10-2007, 10:13 PM

I was there also, he looked bad. But I am happy to hear that he going to pull through....

OK - I just talked to Dionne his wife. His condition is the same...tomorrow will tell. He does have a fracture in his spine...but it seems minor. The helmet was aparently cut off not broken in the crash.

She wanted me to post up and THANK YOU ALL for your help. She really appreciates it!! Thanks guys!!

Spaceboy...how about changing the title of the thread. Very clever, but a little tasteless don't you think?

The helmet was definitely broken in the crash, I was one of the first people that saw him just after it happened.

Tasteless? No, but since the thread has taken a different face I will change it.
