getitrightdamit Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Hello all My hubby and I rode in this ride today. It was to benefit Bobbie and David Bennett from Villa Rica. They were in a very bad accident in Daytona this spring. A lady T-Boned them which landed them both in the hospital for a few weeks before coming home and ultimately being hospitalized again. These two people have got to be the a couple of the best i've ever known. He suffered a broken hip and leg, and she has several injuries to her right leg including skin grafts, etc. Please keep them in your prayers and I'll pray that you all get to cross paths with them some day, you won't be sorry Link to post Share on other sites

getitrightdamit Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Ohhh...and i'd like to mention that the support of all the riders raised a LOT of money for the Bennetts! I'd estimate somewhere in the vacinity of over $5,000.00, although I'm not sure about that figure. I am always so touched by the outpouring of love and kindness in the hearts of people when there is a need. Before I rode a motorcycle, I never realized the dedication that bikers have, and I'm proud to be a part of such a giving group . Pcom is one of those types of "families" too. Just shows what can be done when people get together to help out their fellow man. Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Raider Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 That is AWESOME! MY parents heard the bikes go by their house.... and they said it sounded great, and they knew that it must have been a ride for a fundraiser... Link to post Share on other sites
