What a great man, rider and friend. We alway rubbed elbows at the IBA Pizza party every March, and would have a good talk about life and riding. And would chat on the phone at times..

With a heavy heart and tears in my eyes , I will miss you my friend .

RIP John

It's hard to think that someone with all those miles can go down, fatally.

It causes pause.

I will say this - he rode.
