Haven;t been here in months, but just wanted to drop a line and say that I'm happy to hear you made the New Year, Rossco. It was a year ago we went and chucked some lead down range and if you want to get out and do it over again, let me know. I have a different number, so send a message.

Keep fighting, brother.

just sitting and waiting.. March 24th hernia repair.. they done some basic scans and say the cancer is not really progressing at any alarming rate but its still progressing. I have still been riding.. almost 14000km on my new bike since Aug. Done a few seattle rips. Working again to just keep my bike able to be ridden. Zebra I think I actually have a itch to shoot again so I may hit you up.

Thanks for checking in on me guys :)

Well yesterday at 7am my best friend was hit by a suv turning left on Broadway and McDonald. He arrived at the hospital brain dead. He was put on a machine till his wife and I with a few other friends could get there. His parents are from Montreal and did not speak English so we needed to get a translator to sadly tell them their son is brain dead. as of 4:37 his wife said to turn the machines off as he was turning white and bleeding internally. Really sad day. The person driving the SUV was a doctor at VGH.. with his wife in the passenger seat, his wife was just sobbing at the corner my friend said non stop for a hour. The photo with him on the ground was taken by a friend who lived right at the intersection. He never moved once since the hit. Be aware out there guys and gals. He was on his way to work.
