Lisa & Mike, My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Lisa, as soon as you can, please give Mike a hug. He is in my thoughts. Mike graciously allowed the American Outboard Federation and myself to "sponsor" him one year he raced. All I sent him was some shirts, stickers, and small things. He made me feel as important as if I had sent tv sponsorship. Praying for him now is the least I can do for someone who brought me that much joy. Get better soon Mike. The kneel down boat racers might need you to drive for us again real soon.

I don't want to Jump the gun

Yes, Mike J, I talked to Mike C.
He is in good spirits and sounded really good. I was really surprised with how much he went through.

UPDATE:

I spent 3 or 4 hours today with Mike. He is doing very well and should be moving to a private room tomorrow. He has several more surgeries this coming week. Both he and Lisa seem to be in very good spirits and are looking forward to Mike being able to return home. He has the OSO bear perched up in the window next to his bedside. Mike told me today that he is going to sell his Harley which means I am going to sell mine also. If anybody wants a 2001 HD EFI Road King (Blue/Silver or Black) let me know. We have two available. Both are decked out with lots of goodies.

That's great news Big Mike, keep us posted. I gave up riding some time ago for same reason too many close calls and too many friends getting hurt. You're much safer on a track!

Thats great to hear, I wish him all the best (Get Better)

Thoughts and prayers to Mike and His Family...from my family.
Praying for the best...

Thinking of you, Mike, and your quick and complete recovery.
