Thanks Charlie, he was in his truck, a late(ish) dodge, grey or charcoal 3/4 ton, with a custom tailgate.
she did mention the front tires were bald ( she was concerned) and she gave me no idea where he might be headed. I just called and asked again, she has no idea. and is of course, become more worried, quickly.

He was found at Foghorns south, being taken by the EMTs when I called, the lady on the phone said that they had said he was stable.
But I do not think they realized he was diabetic initially ( girl on the phone acted surprised then like the lightbulb came on when I was telling her who I was looking for) I let Wendy know.

Alright everyone that isn't on Twitter. Mouth contact a EMT buddy. The EMT's responded to a call at Foghorn South and it was Kris. No word on condition but he is being transported. Probably to WRMC
Edit: Called and he is not at WRMC

Glad he is ok. When I asked the ER if they brought him in they looked at me like I was nuts (shut up). I waited there while Magoo went to Foghorns.
Kris was in his truck from somewhere around noon. He passed out from low BS. Somebody called about him being there and the EMT's came and administered sugar gel. Wendy came and got him. Whew!

Happy to hear Kris is alright!
Good show watching out for fellow NWArk ADVers Matt and Charlie. I sure hope you guys are around if I ever need help. ![]() -JD

Indeed, excellent job Matt, Charlie, and all. He looked pretty good, not as goofy as he is normally! Helped him walk to the car on his own. Wendy is really a trooper, but I could tell she had been shaken. She didn't recognize me or my name (until Kris said "Magoo"). She said this is her third experience with Kris on this, so she was "getting good at it".
Nice to know you guys will all jump if any of us get in a bind. Cool stuff.

Wow. What a harrowing experience to read as it unfolded. So very glad the outcome was good.
Matt, Charlie, et al: You really are a great group of guys. Very impressed with the way you all look out for each other. Even though I'm a dual-sporter/trail rider at heart... gotta' say you NW adv guys are tops!!! V-man

Dont get used to it, you pirate.
you KNOW im kidding! some of us hang out quite a bit, outside of riding, and yeah, we get to be good friends, who would have thought? You get a frantic red haired woman calling you, and youd be motivated to find her guy too! ![]() Quote:
