Who is posting this?

I'm confused physics-teacher our forum member?

If it is Physics-teacher our forum member who passed, I am truly shocked and saddened by this news. Nice guy and a heck of a rider. Met and rode with him at the Ark rally.

Rip P-T. Hope you get a great view of the eclipse from up there.

That is him. Thanks for posting that Frulk. I was confused at first because he went by "Rick" not "Kenrick". He just posted here about suspension mods like on Monday. I'm stunned and sad.

You know, he designed all the routes for the Arkansas Rally. He set up at least 10 different ones and I had to edit them down to the 6 or so that we wound up with. InHouseBob did all the layout work of the cards we gave everyone and I had them printed, but Rick did the heavy lifting and wrote fairly detailed notes about various points of interest, road quality, and road condition. We corresponded for several months prior to the rally on a regular basis. I was given a lot of credit for organizing the event, but no one had more time and effort invested in the Arkansas Rally than he did.

My local riding group is heading back to Eureka Springs in September. I had planned on trying to meet with him and Crutch (also from Arkansas) when we were down there. I think I'll take a solo trip on the route he called "Racetrack Loop" when I'm down there.

I am greatly saddened to hear this news. I hope he went quickly and with little pain.

Thank you for posting, Judy (Rick gave me your name when he registered for the rally). I very much enjoyed getting to know him, first via email and then in person. Peace to you and your family.
