I thought I'd posted this earlier, but it didn't show up for some reason. I received a text from Brick earlier today that was disturbing. I'm not sure it's my place to break this news, but there are probably a lot of concerned folks out there. Brick said he had a crash, breaking his wrist. He also said he had two more stints put in. This is all I know, but please have Brick  and Patricia in your prayers. If you want to send well wishes, perhaps a text. an email, or a card, rather than a phone call might be best right now. I'm sure Brick sill discuss details in his own good time. Syd :-[

I was riding and felt poorly so I tried to ride to an er. Incredibly stupid as I do know the # to 911. Turns out I had two blockages. They put in two stents. One was in a native vein that had been bypassed last August. They reopened that original vein. And a second stent. I have two broken bones in my hand and a giant left knee.
I'm lucky to be alive.

At least you had the where with all to realize that you needed to get to the hospital, too many people wait and never make it. I hope that you feel better soon and am glad that you are no worse off than you are. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Brick - so sorry to hear all this. Thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery. What a crappy way to have to miss STAR. Take it easy and heal up, there will be time to ride later in the year.

Dang, Brick, I'm so sorry to hear this. I was looking forward to seeing you in CO.

Heal fast and take care of yourself. Don't make Patricia have to whack you upside the head! Learn your lesson about 911!

You don't need to ride to come enjoy STAR. I'm going and don't even own a motorcycle.

Get well soon!

Yikes Brick!  I'm sorry to hear this! 
Tosh & I are trailering the bikes....want us to come pick you up?  There's plenty of room for you on the trailer! ;)


Seriously, I'm sad you can't make it out there, and I hope you heal well and soon.
