Hello there, Like most people here i was very anxious to spend the weekend in the dunes with my friends and family.

We arrived late Wed. night and woke up thurs. morning to the most beautiful thing every duner dreams of!! Virgin dunes!

Geared up and ready to go we got rollin, beign cautious due to the lack of trails but it was toooo tempting not to open up my quad. After about 30min of riding is when things went waaaay south, i manged to find myself in the wrong end of a witches eye and it wasnt purdy. i ended up breaking my collar bone and banged up my knee pretty good.

The ONLY group of rails we saw all morning just happened to be a dune or 2 over from where i bit the dust. My buddy went and asked if they had an open seat and were more then willing to help.

I just wanted to come here to see if they were on here or find out if anyone knows who they are. Ive helped out a few people in my days, nothing serious like broken bones or anything.... mostly just broken toys, outta gas or just need a hand fliping stuff around to get out of a hole.

I dont know the maker of the car but its black and green, maybe with flames? with 2 misfits flags and "Bad Apple" on the wing. Im sure you told me your name but i had my bell rung pretty good and cant remember.

Well i just wanted to come here and say THANK YOU soooo much, you have no idea how greatfull i am. Im just glad to know that theres people out there that care enough to help, i am a strong beliver in "what comes around, goes around" and if theres ever anything i can do just hollar!!


Once again, Thanks a million!!

Brian

Well its been a few weeks, i had to have surgery on my shoulder.... found out that i shattered it in 5-6 different places and they had to put a plate and some screws in there. My shoulder has what looks like a 7" long train track across the front of my shoulder, but its getting better now.

Here it is!!

But boy was it SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHHHH!!

This is my first attempt at any type of movie so gimme a break.... no music either!
