Anybody hear any details of a fatality in Golden over the weekend? Over on Dootalk a fella posted that GDX (Glen) from Calgary hit a rock, went over the bars and broke his neck. Very sad. I rode with GDX and his buddy last year and he was a really nice fella.

I can confirm as our group was in Radium on Saturday and attended/helped at the scene. A very sad and sobering scene for all involved.

condolences to his family and friends
God speed Glen

Glen was one of my riding buds. Normally I would have been there but my sled is down. We went in Sunday to get the machine left behind. It wasn't a rock just some unexpected air after a drag, the sled nosed under and flipped end for end. Five feet to the left and none of this nightmare would have happened.
