Glad to hear she wasn't hurt more seriously! Glad to hear she is going to take the MSF course. I help out at our local MSF courses and think it's a great thing to help new riders get some basic skills in a controlled environment.

As a side note and please don't take this the wrong way but I would highly recommend not moving a crash victim until paramedics arrive on the scene and determine it is safe to do so. Would hate for you to try to help out the crash victim and cause more injuries. Just because the person can move on their own does not mean they do not have neck or spine injuries that need to be immobilized.

Keep your spirits up and you guys will be back out riding again in no time!
