Yes and sadly it grows way too often. None the less, it is important to "Remember Those Who Rode" - for they have impacted many and we should honor there memory and be cognoscente of the those things we learned from them.

[Motodad393]

Unfortunately this list continues to grow. It seems like I have added a couple names in the past two or three days. As we look at the names on the list try and remember those we knew, those we heard of and remember, remember those things we learned from them.

As we look back on our lives we can learn much from those who have gone before us. Looking back can be and is often painful - it can also make us better people. These people will never be forgotten as long as we continue to "Remember Those Who Rode" and how they touched us.

I am sorry that we have added Elmer & Dave Stephens. This past weekend in an effort to remember Elmer my club the Rovers MC. bought this banner in a hurry because the district membership had asked for a banner roll up and moment of silence in memory of Elmer at the start of the race.


RIP to Elmer & Dave and all on the list.

[yzernie]

Thank you Mike. You have touched the Stephens family in ways that are unspeakable.

[VET393]

Lets not forget Jim Pomeroy.

Props to the Rovers MC, what a great gesture in remembering a fellow rider!

[Motodad393]

It is with great sadness that I inform you that Rich Horstmeyer [aka: Gitch] passed away yesterday evening. He was a young man who left behind a wife and child.

I had the privilege of speaking with Rich a few time on the phone. He had a big heart and helped many people. His passion was riding. This guy was born on a Husky - riding from the "get-go." You can learn about Rich on the link immediately below.

Please keep the Horstmeyer family in your thoughts and prayers.

RIP Rich.

I remember him posting here a while ago. I'm very sorry to hear this, he was pretty young, as I remember.

RIP Rich

[Keetoman393]

Holy cow. God took another good one home. God Speed Rich

Prayers go out to his family. 27 years old...

Wow, RIP to TheGitch, I too remember seeing his posts about his huskys.
