atvluv Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 looped it out... landed flat on his a$$ in a nutshell... Still walking though right? You know what I mean.... Someone's working in the shop right? I needed to have the carbs done anyways - I am sure they could use a few extra jobs, if they have someone to do them. Dont have cash to donate per say, but some things need to get done sooner or later anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont have cash to donate per say, but some things need to get done sooner or later anyways. My SnapOn tool guy told me that Raptoroy told him Dan is walking around but with a walker. He is recovering "ok". He has some numbness in one of his legs. I don't know for sure about any other details... this is all info that has been passed down to me. My friend Brice (sandseeker) knows Dan pretty well and he told me all Dan's friends are helping out anyway they can at the shop and they all plan to hold a benefit of some kind for him in the near future.

Thank you. Tell Brice (he doesn't know me real well, but we've met a time or two - Dumont & Dan's house- his wife IS the reason I have a rail! She took me for my first ride and got me hooked) If there is any way we can help out we will! I am limited to Sat & Sun.'s as during the week - I dont get off work till 5pm, but my son just graduated and doesn't have a job yet (UGH!) and is willing to volunteer his time as well. Not exactly skilled labor - but willing none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
