Today I found out that a friend of mine and his wife were riding home last night,when they hit by a train. Many different stories are circulating. Seems he tried to beat the train and didn't make it. Not much of the bike or them were left. He rode a pretty rough 1998 Valkyrie Tourer. He was not a member of the VRCC, his name is Chuck (Radar) & her was CJ and they were from Alvin, Tx.
