    This is horrible. I can't believe it. Doesn't look or sound good. FLHT is an experienced rider. Nobody "drifts" into a wire divider. He may have had a medical issue, mechanical fail or a animal.


    Prayers to him amd his family. Thank God his wife wasn't on there too.

    I've ridden a bunch of miles with Marc as well, had some great long rides, highly skilled and safe, this is completely unexpected. I'm praying he comes out ok. Please let us know how he is doing. Bob from Calgary Canada

    I just returned for the Hospital he is still in a coma but he is moving his arms and legs.His left foot is real bad he hit so hard his boots came off shattered his helmet. Mad dog is up there now and he said they're doing more test's. He is going in to surgery this afternoon.Mad dog saw the bike he said it looked like it exploded not a piece together snaped off the front forks it is in all a box. I think it was a miracle he is alive.

    Man this is awful. We will be praying hard for a full recovery something had to have gone on medical or mechanical. It don't add up.you have to hit very solid and arupt to snap off front fork and knock your boots off
