| 150.1 | 1985 RAAM Question | MOSAIC::CRITZ | R. Scott Critz | Thu Sep 25 1986 13:46 | 8 |
This might not be the place to ask, but...
In the 1985 RAAM, a Canadian rider (riding without any support
vehicle) was hit by a U-haul truck. I never heard anymore about
it. Just wondering of anyone out there knows who he is and,
more important, how he is?

re: .1
The last I heard, he was paralyzed. I believe it is from the neck down.

RE: .1
A benefit ride led by Eddy Merckx was held for his benefit during
the world's.

The current Bicycle USA says, "from the waist down after being stricken by a hit and run driver in Eastern New Mexico." I have never seen a report of a "U-haul truck." There have been several fundraisers for Wayne Phillips. One was the Lon and Susan tandem cross country ride earlier this year. There was an article about Wayne a few months ago that reported of his good spirits in rehabilitations and his joy at being presented a new, lighter wheelchair. (He remarked that it would be faster too). ed | |||||
