bobradar Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 We were riding with him a few years ago when he had a accident behind the trailer park in Saint-Ambroise. He missed a turn and went over a snowbank, Bill was a little banged up but the sled took the worst of it. He was wearing his vest so that protected him . Daniel went back for a trailer to tow the sled. Mark and I stayed with Bill at a Tim Hortons across the street. Mark did some first aid on his cuts. He was in pain for the next few days but ok to hold court in the lobby of the Delta that night. Scary stuff hope he gets better . The three of us from Massachusetts would like to ride with him again in 2022. Snobeeler, MrGutz, PLAYHARD and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shore1066 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Get better soon Bill. When you ride as many miles as he has odds are a little crash in order. We should all think about that. See you next year Bill. A friend always George PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of us have been very lucky....nobody rides for years without a lot of close calls...that statement is always in the back of my mind....and no matter how prepared or good you may be....it can always be someone else's doing...it is a dangerous sport...and it can happen to any of us, glad he is OK, he is a tough old guy, I hope I can get where he is at his age. zeusand, actionjack and PLAYHARD 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGutz Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Hey I just spoke with him, he's doing as good as could be expected ( Or it was meds and nurses ). Landed on his back, with his Tek Vest, broke 5 ribs. A small amount of bleeding inside, no big deal he said. So he's doing good More info to come, as I get it.
