**UPDATE**
So I got some info from a buddy who is friends with the rider (I'm not naming him) and it's not good. He is in critical condition, forced into a coma. He is paralyzed from the neck down. They are unsure if he will awake from the coma.
He has a 1 year old child and another on the way. I hope the family is coping well...
do people even read these threads before putting down an "RIP"?
or has this turned into another post whoring area?
