Bruce Rossmeyer, godfather of Destination Daytona, died today in a motorcycle crash in WY on the way to Sturgis. I was just in his store in Daytona today and it was a real sad place. Here's the article: http://www.news-journalonline.com/Ne...ruce073009.htm

 

RIP Bruce

 

wow! sad to hear that. two years ago at Daytona Bike Week I went to Destination Daytona, bought two t-shirts there, went outside, sat on a curb next to a ice cream stand and Bruce saw me looking at my shirts and then asked if he could buy me a ice cream cone. We sat and chatted, I didn't realize it was him until someone told me. super nice guy.

 

very sad ... I live very close to them and spend a lot of time cruzin the store ... he is a very nice person , sad to see him go

 

Really sad to hear that. The local Superintendant of the school district here in Mansfield, TX just died earlier this week in a motorcycle crash. He had just retired and was on a 5 week trip celebrating his retirement. His is wife is in critical condition, please keep the family and her in your prayers. He died in South Dakota, ironically.

 

RIP Bruce, very sad to hear this, I met him in Daytona in the late 90's great guy

 

Wow, too bad. Hate to hear stuff like that.

 

Wow...this is a scarey story. Shows none of us are immortal on our bikes. Definitely not good press for Harley or the motorcycle industry in general. When its your time...it's your time...He sounded like a good guy...RIP.

 

Never met him but heard alot about him. Rest easy Bruce.

 

Wow!! That is a terrible story man. Hate to hear that and I hope everyone keeps his family and friends in their prayers. RIP Bruce.
