This news on Randy Gillespie is horrible. I don’t know him, but I really hope he pulls through.  Thanks for posting that link to the paypal account.

Regarding 5s looking like pros at Glencoe.  It appears that a few riders racing the higher categories in years past have returned after time off, and with a slight change of name are cleaning up at the cat 4/5 races.  I heard a complaint made to one marshall at Galena but nothing done.

It looks like Randy may have passed on as a result of this accident.  Horrible news.
