    No R3 for me

    Hey now all you doo doo pickers and pickerettes! I am very sad to report that I will not make it to R3 this time around. I had a bit of an off back in October which totaled my bike, and damned near totaled me as well, so I have no ride.
    Since I know someone will ask, here's the laundry list. I fractured four vertebra, left clavicle, three ribs, shattered left ulna (metal plate), shattered left cheek bone (metal plate), and lacerated my spleen. After a week in trauma intensive care I began the healing process which, with the exception of my back, is pretty much complete.
    So if that wasn't enough, I've been diagnosed with esophageal cancer, and will likely require surgery in the near future to remove that. The fun just never ends!!!
    I will be with you all in spirit, and hope you all have a really great time.

    Damn. I've been asking about you. you will be missed. We will post up a link to the video again this year. I'm going to try something different for better quality this year so maybe it'll be more fun for people who tune-in. Hope everything works out for you, bro.

    Den,

    I am really sorry you are not going to be there. What a mishap. But you made it through and that. I am sure you will kick the bejesus out of the cancer too. Looks Like I am going to be the old bugga there now. Speedy recovery man.

    I've told him. But when it comes to such things, he has the memory of my 11mo old.

    If you plan on coming then you want to be there on Saturday morning for the big ride, BBQ and raffle afterwards. Most people arrive on Friday all throughout the day. (I will NOT be last this time!)
