I've had a similar yet not as a bad. Long story... don't feel like repeating.

Go you! You did well.

Will you know the outcome of him? I still talk to the guy I helped at his accident scene. His family considers my his savior/angel. It was intense.

Good for you for helping out. I find it hard to believe the car drivers story. I can't imagine a group of riders bailing when someone in their group gets in an accident. Even if they didn't see it they would have circled back looking for him. Sounds Shady.

The accident was in Towne Lake. So far, I haven't heard any updates aside from the fact that he may or may not lose the foot.

Sadly, I thought the same thing. I don't have any evidence to support that idea, but I don't think its too far fetched. However, drunk or not, I would never leave a fellow rider or a stranger for that matter. Hell, I was three sheets to the wind when I helped the dude. The last thing I was worried about was getting popped since someone's life was in the balance.

Poor guy. I hope it's not too serious and he gets away with keeping his foot.

On another note... I know of no biker, Harley rider or not, that would leave a fellow rider behind. Ever.
It does sound kinda fishy....I wonder what really happened.

Well, I have heard horror stories of "biker dudes" as I like to call them leaving a friend out to dry. I think 90% of the posters on this forum would never do that.

I should get some more details in the next couple of days so I will post up later.
