Default SonnyinVA needs our prayers

My good friend and fellow CF member Sonny Parks (SonnyinVA) needs our prayers. Sonny was involved in a motorcycle accident late last night. He's in ICU right now on life support with brain injuries.

Sonny needs it... the helmet he wears w/ his Big Dog doesn't offer much int he way of real protection

This is why everytime I want a bike I back off.

Oh damn...sorry to hear that.

Hope he recovers, brain trauma isn't exactly encouraging news.

Get well soon Sonny!

Very sorry to hear that Gary. I was going to show his chopper to my girlfriend when we went by your shop today. My prayers with him and his family. Let me know if you need anything Gary.

My sympathies from one rider to another. My next door neighbor lost his left foot in a Harley accident 5 months ago. Those pitiful little **** helmets some people wear are worthless.
