Yeah i saw him driving by a restaurant last night, and then i got to talking about when i used to bmx with him how he was indestructible, from falling 25 feet in the air right on his side tearing all the ligaments off his shoulder and bursting his spleen at the same time, and then getting up and walking around for 15 minutes like nothing happened until he passed out from the shock, to breaking bones and then biking while still in a cast. Its hard to think about it, he was the guy i looked up to when i biked, always being helpful and pushing me to get better. I remember driving and riding with him. He was a great guy. He will be missed

So, what happened: health problem, accident... ?

[danceofcurse]

He went to test drive his friends sports bike, lost control in the parking lot and slid under a car. People who were there lifted the car off him and dragged him out from under there for the ambulance, and they they called STARS and the flew him to the U of A hospital.

Omg....

I can't believe this. I was just reading his emails at work the other day because I missed my car and I was just going over the final days of the sale etc...

He was a nice guy. I can't believe he crashed on a bike too... I just started riding

I don't feel good now. Jesus RIP man. You were a good guy.

[kelaog]

I can't get over this. I feel ******* aweful. His comments are all over my itrader about how happy he was to buy my car. .

I guess I feel connected somehow because it was my old car, and he crashed on a bike. This one really hits home...

I really hope his family is okay. He was just such a nice freaking guy! he even invited me up and offered a place to stay so I could go for a ride in my unfinished project car. God I was looking forward to riding up there on my bike this summer and everything...

=[...

[danceofcurse]

Yeah its so sudden, he was nice to everyone, and he did love that car. My friend talked to his mom today and everyone is still in shock due to how sudden it was, he and I had a little rivalry due to being friends and both having 500+hp cars never did get to cruise with him though, just back in his old cars. Ill update this thread as i find out more about the funeral and what not. He loved the car just as much as he loved to bmx.

[Oakville]

What about all he's leaving behind, his family...his gtr? Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, hopefully they can make it through this tough time.
