Just Sucks
Two weeks ago, a long time fixture of the old KatanaPlanet/Katriders Forum (Cyberpoet) died while riding ( http://katriders.com/vb/showthread.php?t=102355 ) . Last week, the brother of a member of another forum died and last night, the son of a friend of mine (PPFOG, from Squidbusters, whom I have shared a number of his posts on this forum) died while riding ( http://www.squidbusters.com/sb/showthread.php?t=9626 )
I have been so busy the last few month's I haven't been on here or anywhere else and have ridden the least in many years, and yet lost so many folks I've known.................. You all be safe out there............. |

CastorTroy here lost his best friend and we lost a member on my local board as well. I know there is a few others I am forgetting, but it's been a bad year for veteran riders. Stay safe out there man, good hearing from ya.

Always sad when this kind of thing happens. Everyone ride safe and keep that head on a swivel.

That was the guy in Chattanooga I believe, wasn't it? I remember hearing about that on the news. Some stupid kid got pissed off at his parents and went stood in the road.
