Hey everyone.

I wouldn’t usually do this, however I just heard terrible news: A friend of mine (Peter) got hit by a car or motorcycle (reports are unclear) during a training ride today (21st Aug). He suffered from VERY serious injuries, including subcranial fracture, craniocerebral injury (brain damage), several broken bones, and sadly, longterm or permanent damage is likely.

As a gesture a different friend has signed up for a contest, to win a trip to Majorca with the intention of donating the prize to Peter when recovers.

If you could help with this, I would appreciate it. It is for a good cause.

To do this, we need your vote. Simply click here and then fill out the form.

I'm sure Peter will be happy about a free trip to Mallorca when he's Ok again.

and do not click the box with the ratehr long text beside it.

Thanks very much. Felix

I have been informed that thanks to everyone's help the competition was won and that Peter will be going to Majorca once he is well enough.

That's right. The Mallorca-trip will be given to Peter as soon as he's well again. :thumbup:
Let's hope he recovers quickly

No problem, there were only 3 hours left to vote when i started the thread. We really wanted to win this trip for him.
Thanks for the best wished, he will need a lot of them. :(

If anybody wants to know more about this, and understands a little bit of german, take a look at this threads.

Thanks, i will do so!
I just tried to get as many votes as possible, the real benefactor is the user "Nopain" from a forum called bikeboard. He signed up for the contest long before the accident happened, and had good chances to win the mallorca-trip. When he heard about the accident, he immediately said he would give it to Peter.
