photo 1 My accident was on September 1, 2007. I can only guess as to what time it was exactly but I’m guessing about 2pm. I was 30 years old. The first 2 people I remember getting to me were Bryn Atkinson and the guy that used to help build and design our courses. I’m completely forgetting his name and I feel like an ass because he’s such a sweetheart of a guy. Those were the two people I remember getting to me first. I just remember laying there in the hot sun, looking at Bryn, holding his hand telling him: ”I want to walk again....I want to ride my bike again. Tell me I’m going to ride my bike again?” 
The first aid crew was there pretty quickly after and as soon as they were there they started asking the standard questions. "Can you feel this? Can you feel that? What day is it? Blah Blah". The interesting thing is that I think I hit my head pretty good in that crash but I don’t think they ever checked my head. They concentrated on my neck and back which was fine by me but 6 years post accident and my memory is still shot.
