Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

Heard from some friends that this person past away. I didn't know him super well but we would have small chat on occasion in some parking lots. Super nice guy. Always gave me a thumbs up when we passed each other on our valks. Rode his valk yr round. Not in the best of shape since it sat out. He always talked about how awesome of a bike it is. Ive tried to get him to some VRCC rides in the past but he would always decline. Hes not your typical Valk rider and prob wouldn't fit in well. He worked out a lot and was buff. He was like a Elton John when he dressed. Always riding in cut off jeans with his socks up to his knees with a tank top and a ships capt hat on. Wardrobe is to long to list.  Grin  You could always hear people whispering in the stores when he walked in. He was also tattooed from head to toe. Literally. He had some tribal designs tatted on his face a few yrs ago. Occasionally he would drive his old jacked up ford truck that was spray canned blue with red and white polka dots. Just bought a new can am spider in July.
He was different and seemed intimidating but the nicest guy Ive met. Lotta stuff on fb about him today.

Sad to hear this. The world needs colorful people. I'm certainly not one to say what the norm should be.

He sounds like quite a character, brought a lot of color to his surroundings.
