Yesterday was like Christmas in May. My Blue T16 arrived from UPS. It is sweet time trial bike that I will proudly race on later this season. Before I was about to call and thank Ryan Barnett, my awesome sponsor at Blue bicycles, I got distracted surfing SlowTwitch.com.My attention was caught by the picture to the left and I came across an article about Ryan being hit by a truck. He was hit by a landscaping truck while warming up for a crit last Saturday night. Currently Ryan is at the Shephard Spinal Center in Atlanta.
According to his co-worker, he will undergo surgery today or tomorrow and his prognosis is mixed.
Please think of and pray for Ryan. He has a tough road ahead of him and his family. We can only hope that his athletic will and determination will serve him equally as well in recovery.
