Friend killed on ride
« on: June 04, 2006, 09:31:42 AM »

While riding yesterday one of my close friend left the road  and ended up under his motorcycle.  The whole thing is like a nightmare come true I keep hoping to wake up and find out it is just a dream.

Man, sorry to hear about that.  Did you see it, were you on the ride also, or was it just relayed to you?  Mind sharing how he went off the road?

No I didn't see it he, I wish I had maybe I could saved him.  We thought maybe he'd gone home I keep calling his cell wanting to know where he went.  We drove back thinking he had stayed at the store or took a different way and decieded to go home. I actually got mad at him for not letting us know he changed his mind and went a different.   After trying for a while to contact him we decided to follow the road again look for tracks going off.  I a friend riding in front I followed then another behind. We came up on a corner my friend keep going I noticed a cross along side the road where someone had been killed and I also thought I saw somthing shinny.  I stopped ran back and found his bike along the ravine I looked around the bike and didn't see anything than I panicked and ran up the ravine looking for him in the mean time one of the other riders said he was under the bike. We lifted it off him.  I knew we where to late.

          My condolences to your friend's family and to those of you who rode with him. Try not to dwell on how he died and focus on how he lived. In your time of grief, follow your heart. It will lead you out of the valley.

Thanks for the notes and prayers for Bob.  Ironically we were are our way to a memorial ride for another Bob.  Yes GrayGus it was Scooter Stuff.  I was told buy the 911 guys that was the third person killed in a year at that corner.  When we went looking I never dreamed in a million years he actually crashed.  Think I'm done riding for awhile, at least riding with friends I never want to go thru or feel like this again. Bob was a great guy I loved him like my brother!

2Soaper, We arrived shortly after the accident. It's a terrible thing to have happen, even worse when you are at a memorial for another biker. Our prayers and best wishes to his family and friends.

2soaper, I'm very sorry for your loss.  You will always remember your downed Bro, as I had a similar experience some 30 years ago and from time to time I remember........but, as someone just said.....try to remember how he lived, not died.  Don't give up riding, ride for him as most of us would want.  spyder

Like most folks, all I can do is send my condolences, to you, his Friends, and his Family.  You were entrusted with the great burden of informing others of your Friend's untimely demise.  That takes more strength than absorbing the initial shock of death.  Death is part of Life.  Think about it.  It's the only thing in Life, no one ever prepares us for, or teaches us about.  Life goes on.  Remember the good, forgive the bad, and live to ride another day.  Again, I'm sorry for your loss.  Later--HUBBARD
