IF YOU KNOW A BIKER............

I saw you hug your purse closer to you in the grocery store line.
But you didn't see me put an extra $10.00 in the collection plate last Sunday.

I saw you pull your child closer when we passed each other on the sidewalk.
But you didn't see me playing Santa at the local mall.

I saw you change your mind about going into the restaurant.
But you didn't see me attending a meeting to raise more money for the hurricane relief.

I saw you roll up your window and shake your head when I drove by.
But you didn't see me driving behind you when you flicked your cigarette butt out the car window.

I saw you frown at me when I smiled at your children.
But you didn 't see me when I took time off from work to run toys to the homeless.

I saw you stare at my long hair.
But you didn't see me and my friends cut ten inches off for Locks of Love.

I saw you roll your eyes at our leather coats and gloves.
But you didn't see me and my brothers donate our old coats and gloves to those that had none.

I saw you look in fright at my tattoos.
But you didn't see me cry as my children where born and have their name written over and in my heart.

I saw you change lanes while rushing off to go somewhere.
But you didn't see me going home to be with my family.

I saw you complain about how loud and noisy our bikes can be.
But you didn't see me when you were changing the CD and drifted into my lane.

I saw you yelling at your kids in the car.
But you didn't see me pat my child's hands, knowing he was safe behind me.

I saw you reading the newspaper or map as you drove down the road.
But you didn't see me squeeze my wife's leg when she told me to take the next turn.

I saw you race down the road in the rain.
But you didn't see me get soaked to the skin so my son could have the car to go on his date.

I saw you run the yellow light just to save a few minutes of time.
But you didn't see me trying to turn right

I saw you cut me off because you needed to be in the lane I was in.
But you didn't see me leave the road.

I saw you waiting impatiently for my friends to pass.
But you didn't see me. I wasn't there.

I saw you go home to your family.
But you didn't see me. Because, I died that day you cut me off.

I WAS JUST A BIKER. A person with friends and a family. But you didn't see me.

Kevin's Accident - Jul 11-2007 - Updated 7-17-07

July 17-2007:

On July 11, 2007 at 0616 hrs Kevin was deliberately run down by a motorist on his way to work. Riding with 3 other of our friends and co-workers who were also targeted by this crazy person, Kevin and his motorcycle were hit on the freeway and is very, very lucky to be alive. He was traveling at approximately 65mph when hit by this motorist who was going upwards of 80mph. Due to pending investigations and lawsuits currently being filed, I cannot say too much about the goings on at this time.

What I can tell all our friends and family is that his doing rather well. Still pretty beat-up, cut-up, & broken-up, but is on the mend. He has had his re-check out our family doctor and though that didn't go very well, we are awaiting another round of x-rays and an mri to determine the complete extent of his injuries. We have received confirmation that his wrist is fractured and will more than like need surgery. The doctor also feels that the bone in his forearm is broke as well. The abrasions are healing nicely with no evidence of infection and his bruisings continue to pop-up in new locations daily.

As for returning to work, he has not received the go ahead on that, so don't look for him back any too soon. As the healing process continues and developments arise, I will update on his progress.

My upmost respect & appreciation for Rick, Bill and Chris for staying with him until I arrived and a super WOO-HOO for Rick & Chris putting their lives on the line to chase down & help capture the idiot that thought I was ready to be a widow! You guys went far beyond the meaning of friendship Wednesday morning - I can't thank you enough! I really want to thank everyone who have been popping in and out all week and a very special thank you, hug, kiss for all you guys that came this past weekend to help out with the household 'hunny-dos' (and I'm making this weekend's list already - LOL) - I don't know what I would do without so many great friends! You guys are the best! Another great thank you to everyone who has sent gifts, flowers, cards, and food! Most people are lucky to find 1 great friend in a lifetime - we are blessed to have an entire entourage!

THANKS TO EVERYONE!
