For those that had ever met Friar ... you know what he'd saying right now. He'd be telling us to stop being pansies (he would have used different worlds of course) and get out and ride. Heck, he'd be geared, saddled, the bike would be started and heading out while we were left talking.



Never got the chance to meet him in person, but it doesn't change knowing that you are right. I got out on my America today and felt his presence - I feel like I have two fellow rider souls watching out for me now... my friend, Patty, who was hit on her bike by a truck last May, and now John.

Hurts to lose anyone like this, but they will always be on my mind, in my heart, and keeping an eye out over us every time we ride.

RIP John.
