Re: Sad day in East Tennessee

thx guys for all thoughts and prayers. I know bikes are a risk, but don't want everyone to think it was just the bike. It is speculation that he had a heart attack and was unresponsive when he went into a curve and went off of the road. No skid marks, no brakes, or tail lights. He had to other friends with him riding when it happened. 32 years young, way to early in life to be leaving

Re: Sad day in East Tennessee

by the way another reason this sucks, is because this is a friend who owned a 65 gmc truck and a 70 chevy truck. last year. I couldn't afford to pay for the truck so he let me make payments on it. He is the one who got me into these style of trucks to begin with.
