JCOJ's Accident
« on: May 31, 2015, 01:23:08 PM »
My thoughts and the MySwag communities are with John and his family. As you are all aware John has been training for his upcoming cancer ride and I have just had word today that he has been in an accident today with a car while out riding.

I am sure he will be along soon to fill us in with further details.

Wishing you a speedy and full recovery John. As for those red light runners, if our "Revenue Collectors" were serious about road safety they would spend more time concentrating on intersections instead of sitting in their mobile "Cash Registers" behind roadside hoardings looking for those few km's over. Vehicle vs Cyclist is never a good outcome.

That's terrible! Bad enough to happen in the first place but the timing was sure terrible.

Let the dreams go on John. Don't give up! I'm sure you'll be back on the bike before long and on the plane if not this year, there's always 2016 or 2017. Never say never!

Rest up mate!

Life's a bitch sometimes!

Tobias, Karen and the kids, sending our love and best wishes.

John I share some of your pains. I got cleaned up by a car that "didn't see me" that made a right turn in front of me when riding my pushy, resulting in a head injury and shoulder. It was a few years ago now but my bike riding is pretty much restricted to bike paths/lanes now.
