Bruce Rossmeyer Killed
« Reply #1 on: July 30, 2009, 05:52:52 PM »

PORT ORANGE -- Bruce Rossmeyer, owner of Daytona Beach Harley-Davidson – one of the nation’s largest Harley-Davidson dealers – died today in a motorcycle accident in Wyoming.


Rossmeyer
A family friend said Rossmeyer was riding with several motorcyclists when they pulled out to pass a recreational vehicle. Rossmeyer was the last in line and was killed when the RV strayed into his lane, hitting his motorcycle, according to the friend who didn’t want to be named.

Rossmeyer also is the developer of Destination Daytona and co-owner of two area auto dealerships.

More details will be provided as they become available

Any loss of life is a horrible thing, to loose your life while riding hits our community very hard.

Sorry for the family and friends.
