Glenwood Canyon - Not safe right now...

[VailCBRider]

Just wanted to give those of you who ride Glenwood Canyon on I-70 a heads up. I was on a group ride this weekend and one of our riders went down @ about 65-70 mph. The canyon road has huge holes pretty much on the dotted line that will eat a front tire. His tire was kinda sucked in and turned sideways. He is ok, a few broken ribs, a few scrapes, and a minor concussion. He was wearing FULL gear. His full face visor was sheered off! May this be a reminder that we are all susceptible to road hazards! Thanks guys for looking at this and stay safe out there! Pass this along when possible.

That sucks... glad he is ok tho.

Can I ask what kind of helmet was he wearing ?

I'm not sure to be honest. I don't really know him that well. He is a big boy though. Probably 240 and 6'0"+. I watched him ride his FZ1 all day. Great rider too! Just one of those things that happen I suppose. I'll see if I can find out what type of helmet.
