 | Brothers Down |
 USMVMC MI-2 Brothers Reload and Dozer went down in two separate incidents earlier this week.
On the evening of Monday, April 21, 2008, Brothers Buckshot and Reload were returning home from the Tenn-A-Bama Annual. Shortly after sundown, on US 20 just east of Angola IN, they came up on some roadkill in their path. As Buckshot and his extension, Horny Toad, riding the lead bike, were passing the obstacle, a dog that was feeding on the carcass lifted its head and became visible to Buckshot reflecting the headlights in its eyes. Too late to warn Reload, Buckshot passed the dog. The dog panicked and bolted directly into the path of Reload and his extension, Lady Dye. Reload hit the dog head-on and high-sided the bike, throwing him and Lady Dye off. Reload was life-flighted to a hospital in Fort Wayne IN where he spent 3 days in ICU with internal injuries. Lady Dye was treated and released from the local Angola IN hospital. Both suffered some road rash and are very sore from the fall. Reload is expected to be released from the hospital in a few more days. His bike, an '06 FLHTCUI, appears to have been totaled as it has a cracked frame and other damage.
The following day, April 22, 2008, in Ypsilanti MI, Brother Dozer laid his bike down avoiding a left-turning cage. He suffered a broken ankle and was treated and released at a local hospital. His bike, an '08 FLHTCI, was not damaged other than some minor scratches.

| Paulsen's Bail Reduction Denied. New Trial Dates Set |
Kickstand writes "Jamie Ann Paulsen, alleged hit-n-run driver of the vehicle that struck Brothers Spyder and Buckshot in Adrian Michigan on November 3rd, 2007, appeared before 39th Circuit Court Judge Timothy Pickard on Tuesday, March 25th, 2008. Ms. Paulsen's attorney made a motion to reduce bail and/or release her on personal recognizance. Judge Pickard denied the motion deeming Ms. Paulsen a flight risk. Judge Pickard rescheduled the pre-trial date to April 16, 2008 at 8:30AM. A trial date was set for April 30, 2008. The delay is to give Brother Spyder enough time to recuperate from his latest surgery, his 6th operation, and be well enough to appear at the trial. Ms. Paulsen is charged with two felonies of making a false report of a felony and failure to stop at the scene of a serious personal injury accident and could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

| Brother Spyder Update - January 2, 2008 |
Today in the 39th Circuit Court in Adrian, Michigan, Jamie Paulsen, accused hit-n-run driver of the truck that struck Brother Spyder on November 3rd, 2007, plead "not guilty" to the charges of making a false report of a felony and failure to stop at the scene of a serious personal injury accident.
On December 20, 2007, she had been offered a plea bargain that would have given her a 5 year prison term if she plead guilty to the "failure to stop" charge. The other charge of "making a false report" was to have been dropped if she had taken that deal.
Immediately after her "not guilty" plea, Ms Paulsen was scheduled for a pre-trial hearing on January 9th, 2008 at 8:30 am with Judge Timothy Pickard presiding. If convicted, Ms Paulsen faces up to a 10 year prison term.
Brother Spyder is doing better after undergoing five operations on his right leg in the past few weeks. He is recuperating in a hospital in Ypsilanti, Michigan. He will need several more operations before he is fully recovered.
