Rider Down

[Brandon1]

Hey just to let everyone know to pray for sparkysakitas, we were out at croom going over some whoops and I think he goosed it coming up and out of one and slammed into a tree he was bay fighted out and taken to St.Joes in Tampa. Thank god he was wearing his helmet, wich you have too but the impact ripped it off his head and sent it flying so people even if your just playing around your yard wear your protection......

 

[Brandon1]
