DINO UPDATE...
ALrighty... Dino's out of surgery for his pelvis... lasted well into last night.
He's in recovery and doing well, but in a lot of pain...
Injuries - Broken femur, crushed pelvis, 3 broken ribs, separated shoulder.
Going to take a while to heal, but he's going to make it.

damn, sounds like he aint gonna be riding again for 6 months at least. Especially at his age, some of that shit never heals right again. Good Luck to him on a easy recovery.

ddpete3 PM sent. Hope to see you in Seattle, I guess I'm the welcoming committee for the area. Some Guy, Jeff Martin, and a few others are around in the Western Washington area so this sounds like a good excuse for us all to finally get together in one place.
Yes Jeff, that means you gotta leave your damn mountain and join the lowlanders. Highway 9 is nice and twisty, so you wont feel to out of place

I;m sure his family is with him, but just in case, even though I live north of Seattle, I'd drive down if it would help. Dino's a good guy. My best thoughts and prayers are with him.

Hmm. How about a group ride to go see him? Second weekend of August sound good fellas? A few of the others and I have been PM'ing about a ride that weekend. Didn't know Megabyte was a local. You up for that Megabyte? I'm in Granite Falls moving next week to City of Snohomish. And I'm damn tired of a friggin year after I joined the site just finding out all you guys are near me! So I'm changing my signature. How you guys like it?

That list of injuries sounds way to familiar. I broke 2 neck vertebrae, a compound tib/fib fracture, and 2 ribs. If he's over 30 like I was it's a bitch trying to grow bone. My best wishes to a speedy COMPLETE recovery. My left leg is 1/2 in shorter than it used to be, I hope he suffers no permanent issues. The best hospital for fine tuning mobility issues in The Hospital Of Special Surgery in NYC. My doctor was Dr Helfet, a fucking genius surgeon, look into these folks Dino, I'm walking because of them.

Dino can't be killed ! Not to worry he's one tough SOB !! I seem to remember him parking his 04. ... 10R in a tree top and the only thing mortally wounded was the 10R.... The mold was surely broken when Dino was forged.... Heal up quick Bro a new 10R will be at the dealer with your name on it..

Man i feel for this guy and hope the best for him. Femur fractures are very very painful. Count me in sticks for a ride. Been busy as hell with shit around the house and at work. Starting tomorrow i work ten days then 4 off. Saw about 20 sport bikes ride thru this week-end and i thought maybe it was you, But i guessed, it wasn't when they didnt stop.
