Send out some positive thoughts for PTC. He was on a ride up near Crescent City, CA and got taken out by a Big Rig. He is in the hospital with some broken ribs and a punctured lung. He is resting and has texted me a couple of times this morning. Heal up quick Buddy!! We are thinking of you!!

Paul just texted me that he has been released and is headed home. Will be home in a few hours. Here is a pic of his boat for those that don't know him.

I met Paul this year at the Folsom race. Great guy for sure sorry to hear I know first hand from a few months ago broken ribs and damaged lungs are no fun! Lol

Hey all my hotboat friends, thanks for the kind words and prayers, really do appreciate it. Was one of those things that compounded into a bad situation that was just in-escapable. The bike is totalled (and replaceable) but I am very lucky considering what could have been the damage. Choices were; 1) hood ornament on a 1987 Chevy Cheyenne 2) ride the opposite shoulder into a deep forest ravine.... either one was gonna leave a mark!!!

Im on the mend, and should be back in the boat soon.

Thanks again

Great news Paul. You have a month or so to get it to gather for the the vets run next month. You should be fine by then, right? :)

Glad to hear you're going to be ok. Metal can be repaired or replaced, flesh can't. Ride safe.
