Myself my cousin Richard and a good freind of our Bene were coming back yesterday from Durango Colorado we had went to seen a good freind of ours who had just gotten over cancer. About 14 miles west of Walsenburg on highway 160 this Idiot decides to pass a bunch of people on a curve coming down a hill. I was in the rear Bene was up front and my cousin in the middle and here comes this idiot around the corner comin right out us, Bene went right and slowed down headin for the ditch, my cousin locked up his front tire I seen smoke then he had that high speed wobble and over the bars he went I braked trying to get out of the way Truck and not run over my cousin, or hit his bike. Hell shit happened so quick, he kinda looked like Evil Kneivel when he wrecked his motorcycle. I stopped about 20 yards from him he tumbled one more time. I was sure he was dead i came calling him and he started to move told him to stay down. God must of been with him first guy there was a paramedic,Doctor happend to be coming by. But that MotherFucker that ran us off the road kept going. we waited for the ambulance took about 1/2 an hour this young lady came up she said she followed the guy got his tag # she called the police and they got him and the next county. She told me the same Idiot ran another person off the road about 5 miles up the road. My cousin broke his right lower leg has some road rash on his right arm and fingers but all in all he is doing good now they sent him to Pueblo to do surgery on his leg. I was impressed at how many strangers stopped to help, and to them i would like to thank them for going out of there way.

So glad you guys are gonna be okay! Same thing happened to me in 04 in Nashville. I am lucky to be alive and several people stopped to help me so I am told because I was unconcious for a few days. I wish your cousin a speedy recovery!

How scary! I'm praying for you both!

God was really watching over with the paramedic, the helpful lady and the fact that your cousin and the rest of you are still here with us!

Gosh, that shakes you up just reading it! Glad you are safe!
