I got the call on Saturday that Charlie 3 Finger had passed away sometime Friday night/Saturday morning.

Those of you in the Tampa Bay area that read Full Throttle magazine and those who went to the Webster Swap Meets would have seen, met or known Charlie because he was a fixture at both for many years. I had the pleasure of knowing him since the late 90's when we both were writing monthly columns in Full Throttle. I also spent many a Sunday with him in his vendor spaces up at Webster under the tree. Although his health had been deteriorating he always had smile and a joke ready when he saw you.

Charlie was a biker from back in the 60's and 70's and was what people sometimes refer to as the genuine article. If you knew Charlie then you know what a real biker was.

So long Pal. I'll see ya there.

 

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend and colleague.

 

Sorry to hear about Charlie. I had met him a few time. I always found him to be a nice gent.
RIP Charlie, and I hope the roads are always dry, the sun is always shining, and the bikes never break down where you are at.

 

rip...
