Such terrible news when any of our fellow riders pass, and even more so to those who had just seen him and spent time. Prayers go out to his family and friends at this time of loss.  :(

Wow, this is so sad. I didn't know John well, mostly through my friendship with Curt Chevlen. We talked at events like Mail Pouch and Tri-STAR, a good-natured friendly guy.

Godspeed John

Very sad. I did not know him but I grieve for all of you that did and for his family. Good to hear that his last days were joyful.

So sorry to learn of John's death. Road with him and Howard from Columbus to BLL and had a great ride with him, Howard, ? (sorry, forgot name) and Brick on Saturday at BLL. This kind of news hits all of us hard.  Heart goes out to his family and friends.

John sounds like the kind of rider that did everything right.    Very sorry for John, and his family & friends that just doing everything right - wasn't enough.   That's the sobering reality we accept every time we ride; but it doesn't make losses like this any easier or less tragic.
