I got word today that a friend of mine, who belongs to the same scooter clubs that I do, had an accident and broke his hip. He is fairly tough and will probable heal quickly. I would not be surprised to see him riding a scooter at the spring meet. But he didn't fall off a scooter. He was riding around the Cades Cove loop in the Smokies and fell off......Are you ready for this?.......his bicycle! Falling off a bike in such a way as to break a hip, probably means he is skint all over, but I'm really glad he wasn't hurt worse. I've ridden my scooter around that loop road and I know there are some very dangerous and tricky places there. Some are hills, some are curves and some are hills that curve. I'll bet I know the very place that got him.
