I have talked to her sister and she has a head injury and as last I heard was in critical condition. $I\'m Down$
Her boyfriend Bryan was also critical.

Seriously. Is she still in Florida and is it a law there?

I used to ride here in California and disliked the helmet law very much. That said I was happy to wear one. But for short trips to the grocery store or whatever I wished I didn't have to bother with it. But then you read about head injuries and man..... Glad I always wore mine law or no law.

She is in my prayers Glen, thank you for sharing.

In FL, helmets are not required.

That sucks really bad. Head injuries are no joke. I see them like crazy at the hospital I work at and how devistating they can be, even from a small fall. I hope they both recover well .

Glen, I'm not on here much these days...

Man this sucks...I know a lot of people think it's a hassle to wear a helmet or it doesn't look cool. Wearing a helmet is a lot less hassle than this and much cooler as well.

79coyotefrg · « **Reply #10 on:** May 16, 2016, 11:11:00 PM »

I agree. going to bed, I'm exhausted. Between Diane, my friends in Texas (cancer is eating her alive), my chiropractors wife also has cancer and isnt doing well at all. and another friend found out he has leukemia

79coyotefrg · « **Reply #11 on:** May 16, 2016, 11:13:33 PM »

we need to help Diane I guess by making this the Get better Diane thread.

Fingers crossed everything works out well for her

This has always bothered me to no end. I remember my dad riding without a helmet in california when I was little and it bothered me. I used to be anti on bicycles but never without on a motorbike. I've now hit my head twice on the street, once at a very high rate of speed and once while in first gear. The first time I would have died, and had and still have semi-serious issues because of it, and the second time would've had serious head trauma had I not had on the helmet, despite still being in first gear. And as for your short trip theory, I was a couple miles from home and had only ridden 80 feet away from a friend's house.

And while my group of mountain bike friends all wear helmets, I'm the only one who wears a full faced helmet 100% of the time. It gets warm in the summer, but I can ride with greater confidence knowing I'm very well protected.

As Drew said, head injuries are no joke.

Hope Diane and Bryan are ok!

with accidents, they say they usually happen within 25 miles of your house.... I have been in far too many accidents I care to recall, and most of them, were within that window....

I have some news but its not good.

I'm Bryan's daughter. Unfortunately, without her next of kin here, we have not been able to get much info for Diane. What we do know is Diane suffered severe head trauma and has had three surgeries to stop brain bleeds. She is not in good shape right now. Her family is in route to her and will notify friends when they can.

brain bleeds are no joke. Hopefully they were able to decompress her and stop any bleeding before she herniates

Slabzilla · « **Reply #18 on:** May 17, 2016, 03:42:22 PM »

My Greatest Hopes, Wishes and Prayers for both of them for full recovery. Being a Cali' rider and been down on my helmet more than once, I know they saved me. My heart is with them. Come back to us!

Stocker · « **Reply #19 on:** May 17, 2016, 04:00:39 PM »

Does not sound good at all but I'm hoping for the best possible outcome.

79coyotefrg · « **Reply #20 on:** May 18, 2016, 07:20:44 PM »

$I\'m Down$ I was hoping when her brother got there that he might share something but he doesnt seem at all inclined to do so.

79coyotefrg · « **Reply #21 on:** May 18, 2016, 08:33:04 PM »

I finally got word from her boyfriends family that her family removed her from life support earlier and she passed away. Rest in Peace my dear friend

RokCrawlinToy · « **Reply #22 on:** May 18, 2016, 08:44:16 PM »

Damn... That sucks.

So sorry to hear

Our community has lost one of its greatest members. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

Toymin8r · « **Reply #25 on:** May 19, 2016, 05:40:41 AM »

EVERY time I lose a friend in a motorcycle accident (and I've lost more than I can count on my hands) I find it harder and harder to bite by tongue and refrain from expressing my opinions on the subject.

RIP Diane

RIP

H8PVMNT · « **Reply #27 on:** May 19, 2016, 07:27:45 AM »

What a loss. We will keep them in our prayers. Should we be flinging some cash at them?

Cheesemaker · « **Reply #28 on:** May 19, 2016, 08:41:21 AM »

Such a sad day! Diane was our friend, mother, sister, the sneaky devil and saint, she would listen and talk to you as a friend. Like I posted on FB Glen, I have been missing her not being on here for along time now. And now its even more so.

I have her last Roundup shirt, I sent her cheese and she sent me the shirt. (on a side note, I have Dean's 4thewkn's last Roundup shirt too!!)

She was a true Marlin member. Including posting her boobies covered with Marlin stickers! And I can understand why she stepped away from Marlin, but she left ALOT of family when she did. And now, she has really stepped away, and I will greatly miss her!

This is so sad. She was a decent person, straight shooter and she had balls. RIP Diane.
