Just texted Destry.......he is in good spirits considering.  Make sure you click on the go fund me link to help with whatever you can........We all know he is a legend motorcycle racer but I'll tell you that he is a great man overall!!  Get well quick Dusty Rabbit and we're all pulling for you.

I just donated.  Kris Keefer from Dirt Rider donated right after me.  It's good to see how quickly the donations are rolling in.

It's almost to $65k.  It's so nice to see the fans, industry, and fellow riders supporting Destry.

So far he is up to 75K!!  I know a lot of you don't have social media so here is a message from the Champ and KX500 God to everyone who has helped!!

"I don't even know where to start!!! I've been at the hospital since Sunday and just got word that I have Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. I'll be starting Chemo tomorrow and I definitely have a long race ahead of me! I will be doing 14-days of chemo then 10-days at home (limited visitors) then back to the hospital for 14-days and repeating for 5-months. After the 5 months chemo cycle is done we'll see how things look and go from there! I'm floored on the support we've received and you guys don't know how much this will help!!! It honestly brings tears to my eyes to know what a great sport this is and to know how much it's going to help with the 5-months at the hospital!!! I love you all and thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!"

The campaign is over $85k!  They reset the goal to $100k, and hopefully it will make it there.
