Scottsdale, AZ  -  On Saturday, February 7, 2009, Leighton Lille was practicing for the National Areanacross Race in Tulsa, OK. After bailing from his bike in an effort to avoid a wreck, Leighton fractured his T6 and T7 in his spine. He had back surgery a few days after the accident where they inserted 2 rods and 11 pins in his back.

On Friday, April 10th there will be a benefit for the Doug Lillie Family.  Attached is a flyer about the event.  The Recovery 2 Recovery Foundation  is also taking donations for Leighton on our website.  All donations through the Road 2 Recovery Foundation are tax deductible.  Thank you for your support of the Lillie family.
