Saw an article headline in ADVrider about our wayward friend.
Bad Crash For Inmate Dredman, aka Don Redman Of Moto Giant, Bama Rides (https://www.advrider.com/bad-crash-for-inmate-dredman-aka-don-redman-of-moto-giant-bama-rides/)
It sucks that I show up after all this time to bring you this sad news.
His Moto Giant YouTube channel will walk you through all of it; no spoilers from me. He has an entire (unfiinished) playlist detailing events.
There's a post under Help a Friend Out that has all the updates. He moved to rehab yesterday and should be home in 10-14days.
I wouldn't wish this on anybody. I hope he recovers, gets a prosthethic, and gets back to riding soon. He's always admired riders with disabilities and even had a few videos featuring their stories.
Don is one of the best riders that I know. If it can happen to him...
My dad once told me that there are two types of riders: those who have crashed and those who are waiting to crash. Hopefully we all take a lesson from Don and review our own behaviors, skills, and riding practices. There is always room for improvement... nobody is perfect.
