Condolences to his friends and family.


Hope alcohol didn't play into this, but, knowing the stereotype, we all know (whether we want to admit it or not)
that the odds he just left a bike night or bar somewhere and was probably drinking. Was alcohol the cause,
no one will ever know, but did it contribute to the accident, probably. I'm sorry if this post offends someone but
I get tired of watching riders drink beer after beer at bike nights then get on their bikes and ride away wearing no gear at all. :nono:

Respect those who have seen the dark side of motorcycling, and lived.

I'm not fond of the sportbike to reference wrecks. They don't need any bike pictured except if it's the bike that wrecked.
