quebec bob Posted March 18, 2021 Report Posted March 18, 2021 He is not a young man, and broken ribs are a tough thing, only time heals them, very painful and very hard to get comfortable to sleep, I wish him a speedy recovery, hope he is OK. PLAYHARD 1 Quote

You said it. Wish I could say I don't know what you mean and can't relate, but after going over the bars & busting 5 going up Grand Mere on last year's day-one opener, and initially in disbelief that it was a six-week time-out, "sleeping" (not really) sitting up, praying not to sneeze/etc, it's real, and that was for a (young) 57 yr old. 3 hours ago, Snobeeler said: Oh wow, hope he is ok. I do know he wears a protective vest while riding. Thank goodness Bill's a good planner/dresser & good healer. That time he went over the bars from that icy patch a couple of years ago (Pickle Park?) was "just" a temporary setback. Let's hope & pray for a repeat performance. Snobeeler 1 Quote
