I didn't know him personally, but thought others might appreciate this info & can send Tom some prayers his way...

I know many on the forum are strong believers in the power of prayer to our God, as Irene and I are.
Laurie, his GF, let us know that Tom had a serious accident near Richmond today, and was lifelined to Miami Valley Hosp. We don't know any other details than he's expected to survive.
I know many of you know Tom, either in person, from the forum, or from his rides in SE Ohio.
Please keep him, Laurie, and the family in your prayers.
If we learn more, I will update the thread.

For those that don't know, Miami Valley Hospital is in Dayton, OH and I believe Richmond is in IN.

Yes, that is correct, Thanks Jim!   

I believe Tom attended the Hillbilly hotdog ride last weekend..

Let's all hope that he does well and gets out soon.

I hope he gets better.

Hate to hear about any wreck.  Get well soon Freebird6 (Tom).

Are there any details about the cause of the wreck?  I always file these away in my brain and watch for potential situations.

I was riding home the other day and the truck I was following was turning right at a cross street.  I noticed that there was a car at each of the stop signs so I slowed way down.  Sure enough the car that was masked by the truck took off across the intersection, then noticed me, slammed on the brakes, then went when they realized I wasn't going to ride into the fray.

wow..
I'll go over to the other place for an update, I know he rolls thru here (Ohio) pretty regularly to see his lady mid state.

Oh no I had no idea. Tom has come to my rally the last 2 years and he is one heckuva good guy, I will for sure be praying for his recovery and may try to go visit him if I am able. Thanks for posting this.......
