I was going down Rock-it when I lost it and otb I went. I was able to ride out and drive to the hospital. My face has three deep gouges one of them chiped my skull. My right hand has a broken bone. It took three hours of plastic surgery to fix my face. The CT scan tech told me there was two riders with broken necks and paralysis at Mission hospital recently. I sure hope and pray for those riders recovery. Thanks to the rider on the Turner RFX for helping me. I would like to talk to him if anybody knows who he is. I think his name is Darrin.

Ouch! Glad to see that it wasn't any worse. From your smile and two thumbs up, looks like you're still okay. I hope everything heals up nicely and if anything, you've got more cool stories to tell.
