One of our members took a very bad spill tonight on the bike ride.

Very bad break on the left arm, both bones, compound fracture. On the other elbow, a large gash. And a busted up mouth.

greyhair biker is now at the University Hospital for surgery, they will put plates and screws in the arm to hold the bones together while they heal. Should have more details by morning but so far it's going well.
