[Finewest]

I just got a PM message from ST1300 Alicia's friend Bob. Alicia has been in a bad bike accident! She is alive thank god! She is in the hospital healing up with two broken legs! Her bike is totalled! I don't have any details yet. I will be calling her friend Bob tomorrow. Obviously she will not be attending SeaSTOC. Damn! We've been having some bad member news lately! You guys be careful out there!!! And that goes for me too!!! :(

[Mark]

Not good news, at all!

Give her our best Fred!

Mark

[mpgar]

Our best wishes go out to Alicia for a speedy recovery. We all suffer a little when one of us goes down. What are the facts with this awful event?
No matter how long one rides, nor how careful we are, we all are at risk when we go out there.

Mike

[Finewest]

I will Mark, from all you guys! I will be bringing some Get Well cards for her and Mac's wife, and a Sympathy card for George and his family for thier loss for you guys to sign at SeaSTOC. I feel a bit down now. It'll get better I'm sure!

[Scooterb]

[STBNE]

Alicia,I echo the sentiments of those before me.I was shocked to hear this unfortunate turn of events.I will pray that you have a full and speedy recovery.Thanks Fred for getting the word out.

[Finewest]

These are the days of our faith put to the test... After getting up this morning and turning on the news the fires in California and around here in San Diego have gotten worse! There has been a death I heard too... And to top it with such bad news about our some of our members and family... well it's enough to put a grown man to tears...

I want to update the slim info I have on Alicia... I incorrectly said that she is at home. I re-read the message her friend Bob sent me and he said she is in the hospital, not at home. I don't know the name of the hospital yet. Bob left me his phone so I'll be giving him a call later today to get details and then I'll pass that on to you guys if you want to send a card and/or flowers to her. I know I'll be doing that.

Geez! Hang in there guys! Ride safe! Stay sane! Whew!...

[sirepair]

Alicia,
It's heartbreaking to hear this news. I pray that you have a quick and full recovery. I'm sure that if there is ANYTHING we here can do to help, just let us know!

Fred,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention and be sure to let Alicia know we are all praying for her! Do post the hospital info so we can send our well-wishes!

[msnyder755]

Heal quick and painless!

You will be back at it before long....

[b.carez]

Sorry to hear of this Alicia.

Hope you heal up fast.

[tommyboy]

Geez, a bad break all the way around. I hope that she gets through this OK. I would be interested in knowing what happened. I am sure that you will have information at SeaSToc for us all.

[Finewest]

Hi, I'm Arthur, Alicia's friend/coworker and I just got off the phone with Alicia. I posted her update on another thread, not knowing they had started this one for her. Anyway, you can read what she wanted me to post here.

Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery.

This is Arthur again, as she doesn't have internet access at Fresno Community hospital where she is at, so I am posting on her behalf. But she told me it would be 3-5 months before she can walk again.

[Medicine Bear]

Thank you for the update, Arthur. Good to know the bad guys do get caught sometimes. I hope they throw him under the jail.

Here is a copy/paste from the other thread.

"Hi my name is Arthur, I am Alicia's friend/coworker and I am posting this for her. I am on the phone with her right now and she want's you guys to know that she is O.K.. She want's to let you guys know that the punk that hit her was drunk driving, being chased by the cops for 40 minutes and had 4 hit and run accidents along the way, 1 of them being 2 pedestrians crossing the street. He hit Alicia and then he and his 2 other drunk buddies got out of the truck they stole from his mother, and took off running. Bubbah grabbed him and faced planted him in the center divider and held him till the cops got there. His other 2 buddies were caught when the manager of the local Applebees saw all the camotion and called the cops stating the 2 suspects were in his restaurant. There are 8 felonies pending against the driver and he's going to prison for along time. She want's Joe Norris (MELLOW) to know that she would like him to please start a thread to keep people updated and pray for her, she would greatly appreciate it."



Get well soon!!!

[uptoblackwood]

Drinking and driving.....should have tougher endings for those that get caught. Much tougher. Make them pay big time.

Take things slow Alicia and work through those difficult days. I hope you recover quickly.

Forest

[killerST6]

Best wishes for a speedy recovery Alicia, Heal well and ride soon.

[kingprawnokay]

Drunk drivers suck! Licenses of convicted DD's should be revoked for life.

Alicia frequently posted about safety and I knew this wouldn't be her fault. She probably did everything possible to minimize the damage. This is another reminder that anything can happen. Everyday is a fight to keep the rubber side down.

Alicia, I hope you heal quickly and completely.

Arthur posted that she was in Fresno Community Hosp.but he didnt say what room #.

[dreddd2000]

The drunk driver probably got lucky. If Alicia could have walked she'd have beaten him to death with his own arms. :O

Alicia, take your time, feel better, and please let us know if there's anything any of us can do to help you out.

[Carl_T]

Fight to heal well Alicia. Prayers going out for you.

[Finewest]

The drunk driver probably got lucky. If Alicia could have walked she'd have beaten him to death with his own arms. :O


:crackup :crackup :crackup Oh my god!!! Too funny! If any of you guys ever met Alicia ( I have of course) you'd know this is soooooo true!!! :crackup :crackup :crackup


OK! I just got off the phone with Alicia! She is in very good spirits and man oh man! is she one feisty gal!! So here are the details as best I can remember straight from the source...

Yep! Two broken legs! Two breaks in one leg, one in the other. She may be going home soon, if not today. The accident (if you can call it that) is pretty much as Arthur said... A young punk under the age of 21 and drunk in his Mother's work truck on a cop chase through Fresno. He ran lights and stops. Hit two other ladies in a crosswalk. Alicia was turning left on a green light and the kid plowed through. She doesn't know if he hit her, or she hit him. She doesn't remember anything of the incident. She thinks she hit him, because her logic is that if he hit her she would be dead. The bike is total junk! She's got insurance up the waa-zoo, Progressive. She is biting at the bit to go legally after the kid, the kid's mother and the kid's mother's job! Wants the kid's mother's house and everything in it! LOL. She was adamant about stating all the ATGATT stuff she had on and how it saved her life. I am sure she is right! Besides the broken legs, she sustained no other injuries such as road rash and the ilk. She does have a very nasty bruise up her arm though. They had to cut off her pants in the hospital when they brought her in.

Now, I have her home address and telephone number in case you guys want to send something. PM me. Her SO's name is Kay. They have been together for 9 years and Kay is very very upset! I also understand from Bob (I also called him) that Alicia is very very fond of M&M's; so let that be a clue to you! LOL. On a side note her friend Bob also the night before Alicia's accident was in his '67 Vet and was also hit on the road, and his beloved Vet is totaled! He is OK, but very unhappy about his car!

It was great to hear Alicia's very upbeat mood. She was telling the nurse while we were talking to close the door to her room so she didn't have to listen to some guy down the hall who has been screaming for the past three days! LOL. She also told another nurse while we talking to change her sheets as they haven't been changed for three days! :eek: Yikes! Too much info! LOL. Alicia is a real hoot and will be fine mentally I can tell! Great character! I'm going to wait a couple of days for her to settle in at home and send her a card, and maybe a some flowers with M&Ms! LOL. I also told her you guys were real concerned and had posted your well wishes and prayers to her. She really appreciated that! I didn't get a chance to ask her if she plans on riding again. She will be going through some serious PT and was talking about retiring early from work. I hope the best for her as I am sure you guys do too!

I found a newpaper clip about the incident in the Fresno Bee:

News briefs

10/19/07

Police...

Driver held in collisions, striking of pedestrians

The driver of a pickup was arrested on suspicion of hit-and-run driving after he was involved in two collisions and striking two women at intersections in Clovis and Fresno on Thursday night.

The driver, who was not immediately identified, is also being investigated on suspicion of driving under the influence, Fresno police Sgt. David Selecky said.

The incidents began about 8:30 p.m. when the driver collided with another vehicle at Peach and Shaw avenues in Clovis. He then drove west on Shaw and struck two women in a crosswalk at Shaw and Cedar avenues, Selecky said.

The driver then sped north on Cedar and struck a motorcycle (Alicia) at Herndon Avenue.

The women suffered minor injuries. The motorcycle rider was taken to Community Regional Medical Center with moderate injuries.

Selecky said Fresno and Clovis officers were both investigating the incidents.

WOW! What a month!!! October, 2007! :eek::(:rolleyes::)

[S2000-Dave]

Alicia, although I don't know you, my prayers are with you and your family at this dreadfull time in your life. "Stay strong" and I pray for a full recovery. Dave

[tommyboy]

LOL - I have met Alicia, and if she could have gotten to him she would have beaten the snot out of him!
I think she may have a case against the mother, but the company may be problematic. We had a situation at work about 10 years ago with the son of a VP driving the company car with permission from her. He got drunk and caused a wreck. The company insurance paid the plaintiff to settle out of court.

I don't get it....I just don't understand. What a waste of that kids life over the thrill of being drunk. dumba$$.

Alicia, heal up and fast!

Heal First, then Revenge!

One broken leg was hell, I don' even want to think what two are like!

Alicia, from what Fred and the west coast bunch are posting, it sounds like you are on top of it all, stay strong, stay positive and heal up.

I have not had the chance to meet you yet, but you have my best wishes for a fast, complete recovery and a new ST with extra Farkles as soon as you are ready. :bow1:

PS, any chance one of those news choppers was following the chase? Might make a great exhibit during the litigation phase.....

Thinking and praying for you Alicia. If your counting - this is about well wish no. 60. You have a lot of friends thinking and wishing the best for you.

[STBNE]

Alicia should also be suing the municipalities/police depts that have the policy of police pursuit(on the ground).I have seen all too often how police pursuits add to the increased hazards to the general public.The policy of a more covert pursuit using cars on the ground to radio where they spot the vehicle and then use heliocopters to actually keep the suspects in sight.Ground units close in and bag the suspect when they bail the vehicle.A less overt pursuit is less of a threat to everyone else out there..especially when it is known that a suspect is running.

[squirrel Hunter]

Alicia, my prayers and hopes for a speedy recovery.

I met Alicia on my very first ride with ST-Owners and look forward to many more rides in the future, possibly at the second annual SEASTOC. I will bring the ICEY-HOT you bring the painkillers:hyp1: mine will run out by that time:D

dang, I hate to hear this, seems like bad news has become the norm lately almost. hope she recovers quickly and completely, I was just in daytona this past weekend and saw a young woman riding a sport bike, wearing nothing but a tube top, short shorts, abd a pair of flip flops............how is it that people can be so complacent about safety? get well soon Alicia

[DAS]

Fred, or anyone else. Just a suggestion. Never saw this before but received a note today to visit a support site for a kid from work that has cancer. It's

www.caringbridge.org

and may be something you could set up for Alicia - maybe not. It could probably work well for some on this forum. Cool idea.

When I hear of reports like this I think "there but for the grace of God" goes any one of us. Get well Alicia.

Alicia, I think, would like to get some cards and/or flowers from you guys. But most of all... She's crazy about M&M's; so I was told Plain chocolate ones, she is allergic to peanuts. If you wish to send something of that nature please PM me and I'll send you her address. :)

This is Arthur again, just came back to check on the thread and read some post. She loves food, sweets, chocolate but whatever you do don't buy her anything with peanuts. She's allergic to them, so you'll send her right back to critical care quick. She also told me the guy gets arraigned in Fresno Superior court tomorrow morning. As far as the room goes, she should be moving to San Joaquin Valley rehab tomorrow. I'll find out for sure and let you guys know in the next couple of days.

Thank you very much Art! I am sorry about the peanuts! I'm going to blame that one on Bob. He told me she loves M&M's, and I asked what kind; peanuts, or plain. He said it didn't matter! Allergy! That would matter! LOL. I'll be sending out a card with some stuff in a day or two. Let her know how many posts she got! She'll be jazzed. And if you can PM me the rehab center address I sure would appreciate it!

[dteel]

Alicia, oh so sorry to hear of this terrible news. Where I live there are fires burning all around me, the heartbreak is going on non-stop around here. There seems to be no shortage of tragedy. I watched the evening news where one of the news reporters was reporting in front of his house as it burned to the ground.

Please heal up fast....my prayers are with you!

My wife Jen is one of the directors at SJV Rehab. It's probably the best in the Valley so she'll be in good hands. My wife is out of town for the rest of the week, but I'll see about having some plain M&Ms waiting for Alicia.

[M&M Take2]

Oh Man I hate to hear about this stuff happening!

I got a call from Alicia today and she said she's been moved to Horizon Health and Subacute center here in Fresno. Sounds like she's still in good spirits, feisty as ever. Although I do hope she gets internet access soon so she can see all the great posts on this thread.

Heres a link for Horizon with there address and some other info.

[Finewest]

Just a note to you guys that I sent a "Don't Ride Nakedl - ATGATT" (me, sitting naked on the bike. Don't freak out, you can't see "anything".) poster that the folks at the SeaSTOC event all signed. That should make her feel better.... or not....

[psquiggs]

Alicia, heal well and try to keep your spirits up. My prayers are with you.

As for the this trend of people running from the Police and driving drunk there seems to be only one answer here. Change the law so that the penalty for high speed pursuits is a mandatory 25 years to life in jail, no parole. It seems with the media's coverage of pursuits in California is out of control. Sorry, hate to pick on the people of CA but as I travel there on business quite often it seems like there is always a pursuit on the TV at one time of another. Some people need to made an example of to drive the message home the that this is neither cool or a good way to get on TV. Although the Police need to use good judgment when confronting these situations lets not forget who is the bad guys are here.

Alicia, my best wishes for your full recovery. Your posts have always indicated that you're a smart, tough, resourceful individual. You've got some tough times ahead of you, but YOU WILL BE FINE. Won't you? You bet you will!

Way too many people hurt lately. Everyone be careful!
Alicia....I hope you're doing well and will be back on your bike soon.

Alicia,

Best wishes for a speedy recovery and some really good pain pills! I'm normally not a vindictive person but I hope you nail this SOB for blindsiding you like that. We all know riding is risky but getting taken down like that is just totally unfair and uncalled for.

Your misfortunate news made me wince twice. First for you and your pain, then for the rest of us who could suffer the same fate at any time. Thanks for being such a good example for ATGATT though! ;)

Heal fast, heal good, and make sure the bad guy pays for everything, plus!

Best Regards, Mike

Alicia sorry to here this, hope you heal fast. Just to many fellow STer's going down as of late. Wishing them all well and a speedy recovery.

Take care of your self!

Good news, I and Kay went down to Best Buy, picked up and delivered a Gateway laptop to Alicia on Thursday. I also ordered her an ATT wireless card. She's supposed to receive it on Saturday or Monday at the latest, so she should be up and running pretty soon. She will be able to jump on this forum and keep you guys updated herself, as well as keep herself entertained and I in turn can go back to my R1-forum.com

Arthur,

I really appreciate you taking the time away from your R1 forum too!
Alicia is pretty lucky to have friends like you around...

If I had a friend on a BMW and they went down and I had to go on a, shudder, BMW forum to update their friends... well... That is a true mark of friendship! Thanks Art!

Awww, come on now Fred, Kevin was pretty kewl at SeaSTOC. You have to have at least one soft spot for the Beemers now.

I am sitting at the edge of my seat hoping to hear from Alicia directly any time now. The prayers for fast healing and complete recovery continue from my end. Now all we need is some cooperation from Alicia's bones, all that I know of her says that her spirit was never really wounded.

I just now came across this thread and I want to add my thoughts and prayers to the list. Alicia, when I began reading the thread I was quite saddened at what had happened to you. Later when I read the circumstances I was pretty PO'd. I hope you are back in the saddle soon.

Thanks guys, I really do like the friendleness and support shown on this forum.
Good news, I just got off the phone with Alicia, and she told me a package ( satellite card ) came in yesterday and Kay is supposed to take it to her. So she should be up and running on the internet tonight or tomorrow. She said she can't wait to come here and chime in on this thread personally.

[Mark]

Excellent news!

Thanks Arthur!

Alicia,

I'm from t'other side of 'pond too, and can say, with all honesty, that I've winced, smarted, ached and itched with you all the way though.
Just wish you were close enough so that I could say 'hello' in person.

You've been an inspiration, I have the highest regard for you, and wish you all the best in your recovery.

All the very best,

Dickie
