Where have all the bikers gone?

We have a couple of friends in Omaha who are bikers.  His and Hers.  Two or three years ago, he and one of his buddies rode to South America, intending to go all the way to Tierra del Fuego.  They got as far as Peru or Ecuador and the lead rider hit an oil slick as they went around a curve.  The trailing rider went down over the lead rider.  Both ended up flying home well banged up, one with a broken leg and the other a broken collar bone.

This summer, she went on a Komen Race for the Cure ride with her biker girlfriends to the Arctic Circle in Alaska.  Then she went down, had to be airlifted to Anchorage.  Fractured pelvis.  That was July and she is still on crutches.

Last week, as he was going home, a coyote ran out in front of him.  Broken collar bone - again, broken shoulder blade, 3 broken ribs.  Still hospitalized.

I was thinking about them today.  Husker likes the following, but is reluctant to send it to them.  What do you think?

  1. Gosh, what a lot of bad luck!!! I actually made it to Tierra Del Fuego about 10 years ago on a trip to South America. It's amazing ~ she should go back as a pedestrian :))))
