Thumbs down SoCal Wipe Out (Updated: Note from JimmieSD)

Hey, .oRg...just a quick shout to let you know that an (infrequent and rather silent) .oRg member, and very good friend of mine, had a get-off today.

Jimmy was riding his Ducati 1098s on US79 in the hills over Lake Cuyamaca when he low-sided. His scoot hit a tree, Jimmy hit another tree.

Of course, as it is our custom, he was fully geared.

He's in the hospital at this writing.

His injuries include a broken tibia, broken scapula, four broken ribs, and a punctured lung.

Jim is a great friend of mine and a compadre with whom I have navigated countless 10's of thousands of miles, literally.

Please take a moment to send him your best energy, prayers, wishes, whatever. It's going to be a long recovery for him.

To any of you SoCal guys who might be interested in seeing him, he's at Sharp Memorial off the 163 at Genessee.

You may recall Jim as the owner of: the Ducati (of today), and an '09 R1, and an '09 Gixxer 1k, and an '08 CBR1000RR, and an '08 R6. I went to GP Motorsports where his 1098s was 'delivered' today...it's barely recognizable. I'll go get some pix to share, tomorrow.

Anyway...

Thanks guys and gals.

Much obliged.

Well, it's 4:45 a.m. I just got a phone call from Jim. He's asked that I go to the hospital to sit with him for awhile.

That makes me kind of nervous.

I'll be there awhile if anyone's looking for me.
