He's in stable but serious condition, and wasn't wearing a helmet. I posted a few weeks ago how I helped a guy that wrecked at highway speeds but he was wearing a full helmet and face mask.

yeah, so this guy at work (i'm skeptical about the truth) was telling me how there's no helmet law in PA?...but even so, it's just the smarter way to go!

They just amended the law about 3 years ago to make helmets optional.

The only reason why theres a no helmet law is becuase the state doesn't get moeny for haveing the law like the seatbelt, the government gives money to states that have the law...but helmets, nope

Your brother is into bikes, right? What if you posted here about your brother wrecking his bike, and being in the intensive care unit, wondering if his life will ever be same, and someone just basically said they don't give a **** about him. Big Ben is our brother. Edit: And I just remembered you're from WA. Way to hold a superbowl grudge. And nice job hoping his career is ruined. You're disgusting.

im not holding a grudge - he wasnt wearing a helmet so i dont feel sorry for him! just like if ur in an accident and not wearing ur seat belt i dont feel sorry for you!
my half bro was into bikes but hes also not young and stupid. He wore his helmet. Theres a law in Idaho that you dont have to wear a helmet but everyone in a group that i know of who rode to STURGIS kept their helmet on cuz theyre not stupid -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

Apparently, you ARE holding a grudge. Otherwise you would have not wished ill on his career.
