rider down in Germany

Post by agentpineapple »

I've just had news over on Facebook, that a fellow firestorm rider has had an accident whilst touring solo in Germany. he blacked out whilst riding and has woken up in hospital, so he's all on his own the poor sod, must be horrible.
no more information as yet.

update
he has broken ribs and a broken shoulder.
oh and his bike didn't do so well.....

updated again.
Vechta hospital
