Hit & run on Route 28 - Monocacy Bridge


This is from the Potomac Peddlers list serve if you have any information please let us know.

I am writing this on my behalf of my father, Dwight McNeill, an active biker in the Maryland area. My father was hit on his bike by a pick up truck carrying a horse trailer on Saturday, July 22nd, at approximately 8:00am. The accident occurred on Route 28 North just over the Dickerson/Frederick line and before the Monocacy bridge. The truck did NOT stop and was presumably on its way to the Maryland Horse Trials at Loch Moy Farm. My father has three broken vertebrae, a broken scapula and is covered in bruises and black and blues. He was transferred to a rehab center today where he will learn to walk again and care for himself independently. If you have any information or know of someone who does, my family would be greatly appreciative. Thank you!

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
