I can't believe it's been a year...  It feels like yesterday, he was Pm-ing me about the upcoming meet, and I was gonna finally meet some of the GSTwinners.   :cry:

I will be unable to ride for Rich tomorrow, but for those who can, please keep him in your hearts as you travel the roads and I'm sure he will be watching over you all to keep you safe.

As I am typing this post, I'm getting all teary-eyed.  We miss you buddy, and we'll meet again.

:cheers:

I will try to ride tomorrow!  It's tough because I have the kiddies, but I'll try.

We're going up to Lyndonville Vermont on Monday, right next to Burke Mtn.  I LOVE it up there.

It's not about being on one particular ride, mach. It's about being out there riding, and we're all riding together in Rich's honour, no matter where we are.  :cheers: :thumb:

It's so nice to hear from you, Kimby. I hope you're finding some peace, and I hope you won't be a stranger. Rich is in our hearts, and so are you.  :kiss3:

I took a 150 mile ride today with a friend and thought about Rich along the way.  I never met him, but I felt an instant kinship with him because of his board name (Phaedrus from Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and because of his helpful posts.   

You are missed, Rich! :cheers:
