For those of you who khave met or talk to Tony (Kat-A-Tonic), you will know he is a reall great guy who has an amazing story telling talent.
Well this weekend he had a accident on the 400 in Toronto travelling at about 115KM.
I am posting this for Tony as he can not type at the moment. So I will add more details as I talk to him more on the phone.
So here is what looks like the what happened:
Tony was changing lanes on the 4 lane hwy when he hit (maybe a pothole) or drove through something (gravel, sand, oil) as lost control of the bike, Tony admits a little panic set in and he may have over reacted to the situation, but he is not really sure at this moment. He was ejected from the bike and landed hard enough to break his collar bone and causing both hands to be injured (they are currently swollen and very sore.
Lucky Tony continued to slid to the shoulder out of the danger of traffic, he managed to get up and start toward his bike, but collapsed dur to the extreme pain he was in.
The bike slid at least a 150 feet before coming to rest on the shoulder, Tony believes it is a complete write off.
I have spoken with Tony once today now that he is at home. Steve_Guelph and I will see if we can get out to see him today. Then I can provide some more updates.
Please take a moment to say a little prayer and wish him a speedy recovery
