My brother is in ECMC recovering from a bike accident he had early Sunday morning. he is very lucky to be alive. He hit a mailbox than a telephone pole at around 4am. He was taken by mercy flight from springville to ecmc. i got a call about 20 min after it happened and i almost beat the helicopter to the hospital. he ended up with very minimal injuries considering the accident. ( his bike is broken in two pcs and pcs of fairing are spread out pretty far) he had surgery to fix a broken arm, a bunch of stitches, and road rash pretty bad. He was knocked unconsious during the accident and doesnt remember anything. What caused the accident is not known. I apoligize to anyone at the BBQ who i didnt talk to much or if i didnt act very outgoing or friendly to those i didnt know as i had alot on my mind as well as a lack of sleep.( i sat in the waiting room from 5 am till 10 am, grabbed a shower, and headed to the BBQ pre-meet) ---
