frosty day in hell hits Sask Canada and helmet story

[paddi <seamstob@telusplanet.net>]

Yup thats right folks.
Jerald Theissen of the Saskatchewan Long Riders was seen wearing
SADDLEBUM spandex tights on a 50 mile ride.!!!
This man of the helmet argument fame had said it would be a frosty day
in hell before he wore spandex!!! Well he looked quite dapper in his
black tights and was even seen later wearing a helmet although not in
the conventional way.
Speaking of helmets. A rider was saved by her helmet after falling and
being dragged at this ride. A cow spooked her horse and she was dumped.
Her helmet looks like an orange peel from the dents. She was found
unconscious on the side of the trail.  Luckily the next rider along Keri
Jo Smithurst has her first aid , imobilized her and started treatment.
Shannon Hall rode to the radio operators and an ambulance was called.
Leanne spent 3 days in the hospital but is recovery well now. The horse
was found on the Monday. Over a dozen riders stayed to help look for the
horse.
