Steve J. - Went down the week of April 12th

Steve went down outside of Grand Junction the week of April 12 and suffered a broken log.  He lives in Cahone, CO and must make three or more trips back and forth to Grand Junction for followup appointments.  He is unable to drive and is short on funds to pay for gas.

The Rider Down Assistance Network (RDAN) as agreed to pay for his gas if he can obtain the transportation from a friend or relative.  Still waiting for final word from Steve.

His bike was towed by a towing company in GJ and has been sitting in the tow yard racking up $30 a day fees plus towing charges.  The towing company will not release his bike until it is paid in full, but continues to charge the $30 per day.  They have served him notice that they have started abandondment proceedings to take ownership.  A legal firm partnered with The RDAN is checking into the status and will provide at least initial advice/assistance.

REMINDER: The RDAN has trailers and pickup services available at no cost to the downed rider.  If you have insurance we will not pickup the bike until released by the insurance company (who should cover any towing to a yard).  If you do not have insurance, call us to get bike as soon as it is released by the police.
