R.I.P.

It's sad whenriding is one of the things that you live for and miss the most when you aren't riding. Riding let's you know you are alive and makes you want to live to be a hundred and ride everyday. However we all understand the risk when we ride. I pray he had a long and fulfilled life. Rididng is something you can't get enough off and the more you ride the more you want to ride.

I hope this is the only time I have to attend something like this. My heart couldn't take it again.
It's a nice wish to have but a fact of life in this lifestyle. I've been to way too many two wheeled funerals to even count them anymore. And it breaks my heart every time I have to go to one.

Sorry for your loss and your troubles.

R.I.P.

It sucks. I've never been more proud of anything in my life it was the coolest thing escorting hislast limo ride... That was it: him, his family (4 members left)and 18 bikes with a full open exhaust...

Amen.
