Our man Hayden injured in bicycle crash.

We're not a news blog, so you typically don't get the latest and greatest around here, but this just crossed our desk and deemed important enough to post. American racer and past Moto GP champ Nicky Hayden was seriously injured in a bike crash in Italy. For updates and news, go to Superbike Planet.

Our thoughts and well wishes are going to the Hayden family who are an excellent group of people that have catered to the fans of racing.

From the Wisconsin chapter's archives

The Fond Du Lac TT? And a twenty-five cent admission? More proof that motorcycles are your best entertainment value. Hookers, strippers, Amish bowling, cheese rolling, no-rope bungee jumping don't even come close.
