Mike, my friend had a surfing accident and is now in Royal Perth Hospital, Australia in Intensive care. He's been told he's now a quadraplegic and is pretty depressed, he's a mad BMX rider. I've just read about you whilst researching BMX stuff and read about your accident etc, he probably idolizes you, could you go into this link and leave a message of support/encouragement please, he'd be stoked. http://stutimms.com/stu/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1&Itemid=1

Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards

Forrest Wood says:

Mikey your my hero, you inspired me to start riding, and you also taught every rider that we all should wear hemates. You push your limits and through your crash it showed people that limits can push back and that we need to protect ourselves from what could happen...

its so good to see mike back on his bike again, and i hope so much that he will fully recover, he is so modest and truly a special guy. also i will pray to god that things will work out as well as possible for his son, wife, the rest of his family and all of his friends.
get well soon mike, you represent the best of us.
