Is there a way to donate so I could use paypal or some other secure methos of paying?
I have never heard of this ribbon website and hesitate to give such a website card information.


It's the medical fund donation campaign established by Trevor's family.  I believe it to be honest and stable.  I donated there, myself, this morning. 

The shirt looks good, but Zazzle.com is taking up to 24 hours to finalize the availability.

I am just worried about a third party vendor that I have not heard of before and their ability to keep our credit card information safe.
Is there a way we could do a paypal donation? I would feel better donating through them for security purposes.

Dang it Chris , this really sux , I have loved his vid and reading Trevors blogs. Count me in for a shirt and a donation ! Hey maybe a benifit ride , poker run ?
Found this bike in completely stock condition in Feb. 08. Paid over twice what my new one cost 30 years ago. Am trying to re-create the look of the late 70's Drag Bike styling.More later. 4-2-10 It ain't stock any more and I have no idea what I am trying to create !

Tragic. I read that blog of his a few years ago and was inspired to work on my old honda. I'm still inspired by the balls he had with an untested machine. Very cool. I hope he gets out of that bed soon, that's not where he belongs. I posted something to my blog about him in hopes of drawing attention to the cause, but there isn't much more I can do. I really hope for the best.

He was one of he reasons I risked a 1500 mile trip last year on an unproven 550.  I just thought "Hell, if Boxnife can do it...."  I sure hope he gets better really soon.  We might have to organize a ride out to Little Rock.

The 550s are proving to be pretty reliable for long distance travel.  I went to Barber's last year from Dallas and it's roughly a 1300 mile round trip.  I had no issues other than losing quite a bit of oil due to a leaky pan gasket.   Got my shirt, let's keep it going.

Very sad, and also sad to know that had he been wearing a helmet, he'd be in much better shape. All the best Trevor. Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Very sorry to hear this.  I look forward to watching that video wearing my new shirt.

I am connected to some of Trevor's family on Facebook.  These are his most recent updates:

Update this morning:   "Trevor had a lumbar tap yesterday because white blood cell count was up. No results till probably tomorrow but count is down right now. Fever still comes and goes but breathing is great. The vent machine is out of the room! Please pray for no complications and for his docs and nurses and support staff. God has a great team in place for him. It's a beautiful morning and I have the best view in the world, his sweet,sweet face. Thank you God."

Update yesterday:    "This morning Trevor was given a trach collar which is another step along his recovery. He is working so hard at getting better.Please keep supporting him in prayer. He is also showing a lot of movement with his right hand. We are still in the 7 to 10 day window. We want clear lungs and no temp. Pray for no complications and continued signs of waking up please. I know daily life doesn't stop but please take a few minutes every day to pray for Trevors recovery. Thank you."

Good questions, Dave.  The universe works in strange ways.  My girlfriend and I had been watching his video again, lately.  She Googled him to find out if he's been up to anything, lately.  She ran across a link to their local news station reporting on the accident.  Surprisingly, it had happened just a day or two before we found out.  Huge surprise - such a heartbreaker.  We wanted to do something that would help out and continue to be meaningful.

Thanks to everyone who has purchased a shirt.  His family is greatly appreciative of all the support from us SOHC'ers.

I couldn't agree more.  I passed along to his mother and family that the SOHC community is cheering for him.
