    John,
    Hang in there, and heal quickly!
    There's no worse waste of riding time, than sitting around eating Hospital food, and waiting for something to stop hurting...

    Well, seems John has gotten into a Pickle. I know, .

    We'll include him in our prayers. When you talk to him tell him we're thinking of him.

    I'm so sorry to hear of Picklehead's injury. I hope he minds the docs and nurses and gets well real soon! I wonder what he was doing when he got hurt.
