There is a comment that was posted early this morning, apparently from Dave's brother: "Thanks for all those who helped with this accident. The cyclist is my brother, who has been and will be in surgery for many more hours. Among the many injuries he suffered, the most serious was a broken neck. He has no brain injury thanks to wearing a helmet. Doctors are fusing vertebrae in his neck, and he can still feel his fingers and toes. They expect a nearly full recovery thanks to the fast and successful response of everyone who helped. Thank you. Without your help he would likely not be in such a fortunate spot. And please wear a helmet, they really do save lives."
