Robert-Arrived in 1968,married my wonderful wife Kellie in 1998 who is what keeps this dream possible. Thanks to my friends at Cane Creek who gave me an opportunity to race for the first time in 2004. I plan on racing until my body tells me to stop. Shawn-Showed up in 2000, loves to ride(hates to lose)is the joy of Dad and Moms life, and is a hand full but a great young man.

The black cloud still follows
The next day on the group ride we were heading home and I was crossing the railroad tracks I have crossed a million times and the next thing I know I am laying on my ass. Okay I am shook and bleeding but I think I will be okay for Chicago. We get to Chicago Wed. morning and I get to ride down to the course and see the city. Thursday I am going to meet the family in town and on the way I am t-bone from the left by a car going 35-40 mph. This was the hardest hit I have ever taken. Both legs a messed up, my right ankle is sprained and I have 2 broken ribs.....Game over. We got to see alot in Chicago for the rest of the week which was great. I am recovering slowly and got 7.5 hours in on the bike this weekend. I hope to get some more racing in this year and if I can get a cross bike, do some cross racing and get ready for 2010. I hope the run of bad luck is over, I am getting tired of being busted up!!!!!
