Hey everyone. I've been back and forth from Kansas, to West, South, and East Texas and everyelse in between. I don't have a computer in my rig so I haven't been able to update anyone. I have left 4 or 5 messages with Ol Dude's other half asking about his condition, but so far, she hasn't called back. I am debating on going by the house and asking, but I don't want to be rude. I don't want to be more of as a**hole than I already am. I will post this on both boards.

Westsider (Paul) posted this on another string but it applies to this one:
"?On another note , I recieved a call yesterday from John Claypools wife.
John suffered the head injury that has left him waiting to be placed in a nursing home to be cared for , very VERY sad, and he has not reconized her for weeks now she said. She seemed very ? sad is the only word comes to mind....devistated ....just a bad deal..I only met him once to talk about a good going over of his bike and a wrench party on it.
Lets just hope he snaps out of it, and comes around Keep a vigilant eye riding the beast , on everyone out there, you never know what a day holds in store for us. The ins. co. totalled his bike and is going to be auctioned off at salvagedirect.com in Dallas sometime.
Paul."
Prayers for John's recovery.
Prayers that all of you will consider wearing a helmet if you haven't before.

Thanks both Paul and Mark. I tried to call her and the phone was disconnected. That is sad to hear. I don't care how hot it is, I plan on wearing my helmet anytime I ride. Be safe ya'll

Thanks for the update on this sad and senseless story. I hope John recovers. I also hope one of you can make contact with his wife.
