I went on a poker run yesterday which started at one of the local dealerships. There were 2 LEOs posted there, I guess because free pizza and $1 beer can make those HOG members pretty ornery. Anyway, I got to talking with one of the two, a younger guy, and he mentioned he'd recently begun investigating motorcycle thefts and had no idea what a big problem it was. I told him Larry's story, among other things, answered a few questions and offered what I thought might be able to help. Long story short, Larry's story won't be forgotten as long as we don't allow it to be.

That's exactly why I posted the directions on how to receive updates on the court proceedings. I encourage everyone to sign up, to get those updates.

Received my stickers yesterday. No return email on envelope, so I can't even send to you postage.
You are a class act. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
Larry Weaver's memory will be displayed on my windshield from Mn to Sturgis to Glacier National Park, and back to Mn, starting next Saturday.
RIP, Larry, you now get to ride with the real angels.

That's awesome to hear. Like Firenailer and Redoilokie said, we'll keep Larry's memory alive by representing his memory and his love of riding. We're like minded folks who have been affected by this story. I never met the man, but I feel like I know him. There's a kinship there that's hard to explain. He represents so much more than just the man. Maybe because he is me and he is you. It was an injustice that resounds throughout our community. It's so much bigger than the individual. Larry's family should be proud that he was the kind of man that touched the hearts of so many. Sticker or not, he will not be forgotten.
Ride on Larry Weaver.

Be careful out there. These are different times, for sure.

Stayed in some flea bag hotel off some god forsaken Florida highway years ago. Wake up at around 3AM to the sound of my bike starting.
Run out in boxers holding my Glock 23.
My bike is still there, right where I left it. Some other guy on his bike has this terrified look on his face.
Go back to my room, and I realize that the gun was useless in that instance. I wasn't going to shoot someone riding off on my bike anyway.
Still ride armed on road trips. Sorry for the derail, just thought I would share.
