    He surfaced on MX Crazy a few years ago. Maybe there's some history of his contact info.

    He contacted me via email a couple of years ago....but when my hard-drive crashed last Aug....out went his email addy. I wan tto think he was down near Austin or Waco...if that helps with an online search, and he was still driving big rigs....I think?

    Jack did sustain a spinal cord injury at Wolf Creek back in late 88 or early 89. A few years ago Derrik Sims "DDog558" did some digging and found his mom (Dale is her name I believe) living in Waco. I understand Kenneth passed away several years ago. Derrik was the one that posted his info on MXCrazy and turned Jack onto that site. Derrik gave Jack my info after he tracked him down and we had a couple of e-mail conversations after that. I guess I didn't save his e-mail address because I can't find it.

    Jack owns a trucking business with his wife and spends most of his time on the road. He is doing quite well for himself. He has a rig outfitted for him and it looked pretty sweet! Jack is a really cool dude and was a total badass on a bike. I'm sure that same desire and work ethic he had in moto has served him well dealing with life after his injury.

    If you post this question on Vitalmx.com, DDog will see it and point you in the right direction. I'm sure he is more organized than I am and probably has his contact info. If you talk to him, tell him I said hi.

    Yeah but it's a PC right? I just did a full backup of Dory's laptop last night, Macbook needs some kind of service.

    She probably just got lucky and the battery failed 1 week BEFORE the warranty expires. Great time to get a new battery!

    I suppose I did help the Fox's with a couple PC's.

    D, give me a call. We need to hook up and go ride. I bought a 125 to play on and you need to come ride it! That thing is a blast, even for a fat man!
