    In the ditch

    Every Tuesday a small group of us retired guys go for a ride, well this one lasted about an hour.
    I was the leader and all of a sudden there was only one bike behind me. So we maked a U-turn and at the bottom of the hill all the other guys were parked. But one was in the ditch. Not good.
    So he didn't make the curve at the bottom of the hill he should have but he didn't. We were doing about 45 mph. The guy behind him said he flew about 6 feet in the air and landed on his head he was wearing a helmet. He doesn't remember anything that he does have some bleeding on the brain hopefully he'll be OK he was in good spirits
