i was reunited with a high school friend last year while shopping for a bicycle of all things... he was an extra hand in a shop as a side job and we hadn't seen each other in about 8 years. I just found out he was in quite a serious accident while in a race or some organized event...

all i know at this point is downhill descent, pushed off road by group, hit a rut, went ACROSS the road spread eagle into a tree... screws in his back, sacrum, and a badly fractured pelvis.

I am a PT, and know that this isn't good... but i did not hear that he had any brain injury (helmet)... which is a blessing i guess

prayers with us all would help if you do that type of thing please
