Larry rented a U-Haul motorcycle trailer to attend the Dragon Round Up last year. I don't think he has ridden much since 2019 DRU.

For those that don't know, Larry retired as a baker. Years of breathing in flour caused his lungs to not work very well. He was in hospice care for an extended time. He is missed.  Cry

Such sad news. Our thoughts and prayers are with Jane and Emmy. Anyone who knew Larry understood what a truly nice person he was. Always smiling and laughing, always wanting to lend a hand.
All the Rogues will truly miss him. RIP my friend. Be careful which room you go into up in heaven.

For those that don't know the back story behind Romeo's remark, Larry walked into a couple's room in Ouray, Co. By mistake and caught them making the beast with 2 backs.  This was on his and Jane's trip out west after he bought Binkie's 1500  Holding.  I'm really gonna miss him.  He was a great neighbor.

Larry and I would go out drinking with my son Eric (who is 1/2 Korean and Larry is of Japanese ancestry).  Eric would ask strangers in the bar who they thought was his father, they would always pick Larry.

I did not know him, but judging from the comments here, he was well liked and will be missed.  Deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.
