Most of you already know Ryan had a bad wreck at Lorettas and is lucky to even be alive!

For those of you that are interested, I am going to be setting up a Charity fund for Ryan for anyone who would like to donate a fw dollars.
Even with the best insurance, the costs for surgery and Rehab is very expensive.
I will be setting up a pay pal Acct. and also members can mail a money order to me as well for those who dont use pay pal . I should have the Acct. set up after the wk end.

If you would like more info before, you can email me direct at tntkuna@msn.com.

For those wanting to donate and mail a money Order, you can mail them to :

Tina Lugan
308 W. Whitetail Ct.
Kuna, Iaho 83634

Please enclude your user name in the envelope,and please NO postal money orders, they are hard to cash.

All the donations are greatly aprreciated

Thank you :)

I've seen this posted on a couple of different sites and I've seen the video of the wreck, but I have yet to see anybody say what his injuries were. Does anybody know?

THE ONLY THING THAT I CAN SAY IS THAT THEY ARE LUCKY THAT I AM AT WORK RIGHT NOW AND UNABLE TO GET ON THAT SITE, BUT ONCE I DO THEY ARE GOING TO BE SORRY THAT THEY HAVE EVER SAID ANYTHING. I AM RYANS LITTLE SISTER AND I ONE THAT PUTS UP WITH ABSOLUTLY NO BULLSH*T TALK FROM ANYONE OR ABOUT ANYONE. IF I HAVE TO I WILL PERSONALLY HUNT THEM DOWN AND BEAT THE LIVING SH*T OUT OF THEM. IF ANYONE KNOWS ME THEN THEY WOULD KNOW THAT I AM THE BIGGEST ***** ANYONE WILL EVER MEET AND I AM NOT IN ANY WAY SCARED TO FIGHT A MAN! NOW IF THEY WANT TO CONTINUE TALKING SH*T THEN I WILL LET RYAN HANDLE IT ON THE TRACK. FOR PEOPLE TO BE TALKING ABOUT SOMEONE THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW IS REDICULOUS. THEY SHOULD JUST BE HAPPY TO SEE THAT IF THEY RACE AND THEY HAVE AN ACCIDENT LIKE THIS THEN THEY ARE LUCKY TO EVEN BE ALIVE. THE ONE THING THAT MAKES IT EVEN WORSE IS THAT THEY DON'T EVEN REALLY KNOW WHAT HAPPENS AND WHEN THEY FIND OUT I HOPE THEY FEEL LIKE THE BIGGEST LOSERS IN THIS WORLD BECAUSE THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE. THEY LIKE TO MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE ON WEBSITES JUST TO MAKE THEMSELVES FEEL BETTER. I MEAN WE CAN'T HELP THAT THEIR TESTICALS ARE LITTLE AND WE ALSO CAN'T HELP THEY LIKE IT WITH GUYS BUT DO WE MAKE FUN OF THEM?? NO...

08-30-2005, 07:07 AM
EASY THERE TIGER!!;)

Big Boys uses any video that they can get there hands on for there viewers. I personally dont like that site but many do, and you cant help what happened. Unfortunately you will not be able to fight anyone, they are hiding behind there computers. Dont let it get to you, this is the world we live in. How is your brother doing?

I just watned to give everyone an update on Ryan, I recieved a letter from his Mom today,and ALL is good news!! Here it is...

We received the money orders. I can't thank you enough for what you have done for Ryan. I know you have been communicating with Megan once in a while. Just thought I would give you a little update. He went to out patient surgery today and had all the hardware taken off his teeth. We have been pretty busy with doctor appts. and dentist. He has to wear braces again, so we are planning on using all the money people have given him to get his teeth fixed. He wore braces as a child and in Dec. they will put them on again.
His mechanic and sponsor and numerous other people have put his bike back together and ordered him new gear because they cut his pants off him. Pissed him off!! We are having a big party when he gets his bike back. Wish you could be here. He's just ready to ride. Says everyday how much he misses it.
I wish I have the opportunity to meet you some day and wish I knew how to thank the people who donated.



I thought I would post this letter for her cause she and the rest of the family is VERY touched by all the donations...:)

Im VERY happy to see Ryan still feels a passion to want to ride/race after such a horrific accident. I just thought you all would like to hear an update on his progress.Thaks again for everyone pulling together for a fellow rider ;)
