• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Another motorcycleist down in TX

I hope I have placed this in the correct forum. I tell my friends to "please ride 'em safely". And I have told my son-n-law the same thing many times. No matter how safe we try to be there is always someone out there not paying attention. My son-n-law was riding home from work about 6 pm yesterday on the interstate near Burleson/Dallas/Fort Worth and was broad sided by someone changing lanes without looking first... seems the cell phone was more important than a human life. Any way he is in the trauma center there with many broken bones and a bleeder in the left side of his brain. Prognosis at this time unknown. Please help me pray for him, his wife, my daughter and is two children Katie 9 and Sean 6. Thanks for all prayers and please know they are appreciated and once again "please ride 'em safely". This has been one tough day for our family. Ken krb1945

So sorry to hear of this unfortunate news. My prayers are with you and your family.
:pray:
 
Sending all the prayers and healing vibes over your way! Same thing just happened to my girlfriend - her friend was hit head on by someone not paying attention.

I hope he's gonna be ok! Keep us posted on him.:pray:
 
CT passed the law a while back - nobody adheres to it. I don't talk on my cell while driving but many do and they also text while driving! What the F is so important where you can't arrive at your destination and call them back???!!!

I'm sorry to hear this .... Best wishes to your Son-in-Law and Family.

I hate to see people driving while on the cell phone.
California passed the law forcing hands free devices while driving, but it has had no effect as far as I can tell. I often see people with the ear piece in their ear and then they are holding the microphone or sometimes even the phone up to their mouth....NO call is worth someones life!
 
Prayer works

We will all pray and hope for the best outcome. Your part of the spyderlovers family.
 
He goes by initials "WA". I just received an update and there are no changes in his condition. The trauma surgeon said he is resting comfortably and they are evaluating whether or not they are going to operate to control the bleeder. MY "better half" is flying out in the morning so she can help our daughter with the grandchildren. I'm staying on the home front to take care of everything here in Florida unless the situation warrants that I need to go. Naturally the children, being so young, don't understand what is going on and they are frightened.

AMTJIM thank you for telling me about your accident. It gives me hope that many survive brain injuries. This young man is like the son I never had... and I am worried.

My heartfelt thanks to each of you for your prayers and I will post updates as I get them. Ken krb1945

You have our prayers as well. Saw a just-killed cyclist on the way home tonight, so the need to be careful can't be overstated.

Prayers

My prayers are with you, your wife, your daughter, and of course your son-in-law. I am in complete agreement with bjt, for God's intervention for the supernatural healing. All things are possible in his name.


Prayers sent. I'm believing God for wisdom and skill in the doctors and nurses that are treating him, supernatural healing in his body and comfort for the family.
 
hopefully everything will work out for the best, Believe me brain injuries are a pain and are hard for doctors to read, they take time and are one strange thing to deal with the first time. People in cars are the worst for things like this. Post up if you need anything, people on here want to help.
