SUMMARY
In February 2019, Vincent Nicolai – a beloved motorcycle charity fundraiser – nearly lost his life in a garage explosion. In response, the motorcycle community came together to raise over $77,000 to help Vincent and his family in their time of need. This is Vincent’s story.
Shit gets real Paul. Great hearing Vincent’s story. Thanks. PS As a garage fire survivor I can relate. I’m also thinking I’ll start doing more for the DGR.
Yeah, we just heard about a previous Vintagent subject – a flat track racer – who was paralyzed in a racing crash last week. We’ll follow up when he’s sorted his new life: shit does indeed get real.
Sending hugs Jerry – thanks for being such a stalwart Vintagent supporter!
