Accident just happened...

[TresGatos]

Good to hear it was not worse. You've got my prayers

Will, good to see you posting and the morphine is doing the trick.  I dropped my chain on a rough patch and never could catch back up.  I did see you guys leaving the mall parking lot as I was just about to cross the intersection.  Ended up waiting for the other group to catch up and ride with them. 

Last I heard, Tyler, the other rider was ok but expecting a lot of soreness.  The 3rd rider in the group narrowly avoided the front end of the truck and did give an accurate story to the LEO.

Everybody on the Team is/was very concerned once we were informed.  Did you have your Garmin on the bike when the accident happened?  It wasn't there when your bike came back to the mall.  BTW carbon fiber is some tough shit.  Your bike didn't look too damaged other than needing some truing.

You my friend are a tough mofo to take a hit from a out of control truck

Damn, just saw this.  I wish you speedy recovery, and if anything is needed, I'm here.

Me too. Wow, glad you are OK William. Told you, those bicycles are dangerous. Stick to motorcycles, much safer. [laugh]What's all this stuff about villains, vengeance, jail time and laws needing to be changed? Don't know any details other than what has been reported here but it sounds like an accident. Out of control truck sure sounds like an accident. I see nothing about the driver being arrested or charged with anything. He stopped, talked with law enforcement. I hope he has insurance. I live near White Rock Lake, tons of cyclists (Bryant can concur), not all drivers are a-holes towards cyclists but sometimes accidents happen. I'm sure William will post details. Let's take a deep breath and just be glad William is OK. That to me is the only thing that is important. Take care William.

Do you have warm friendly feelings toward the turkey that so innocently assaulted you?

Just logged in and saw this and am sending up some prayers for your speedy recovery. Hoping the mending is fast and not too painful. Thinking about Maylyn too, I know she's been a bundle of worry today. Hope you both are doing well as well as the rest of the guys who were in the accident too.

[webspoke]

Heal up Will, better riding weather is coming up soon.

Just saw this. I am relieved to hear that it was not worse.
Keep us posted and get well soon, William.

Will, hope you're feeling OK... heal up soon!

Sorry this happened to you.   

[junior varsity]

Hope everything mends quickly.

Thinking about Maylyn too

yeah, another excuse to wear that little nurse outfit 

[Cher]

Oh man, I'm so glad to hear you're O.K., Will!   Here's to healing-up soon 

[Duc L'Smart]

Will said he's doin' OK today. A little sore, but I think the morphine's helping 
He's spending 1 more night in the hospital, & meeting with the spine guy tomorrow. 

[muskrat]

send me a PM with the hospital.  I may have time tomorrow to drop by and tell dirty jokes.
