today on a road ride. I don't now many details, but it's horrifying to me to know he was killed on a road that I may ride from time to time. Makes me sad and miss him already.
Be safe out there, monkeys.

Damn.......
That sucks. Hate to hear that.
Very sorry to hear man. I recently moved near the Cherry Creek path, so thankfully I am off the roads most of the time.
My condolences.

Sad news indeed.
My most sincere condolences to his family and to you.
It's a very sobering thing, to know that it can happen at the drop of a hat, just about anywhere.

Again, my sincerest condolences to you and his family. When I drive to work I use a forest road popular with roadie commuters and racers, and worry about each of them as I pass. There are many on my road who are in too big a hurry to give a ****, I actually got passed on a blind sweeping corner the other day...
RIP to your buddy, at least he went out doing something he loved.

Sucks, man. Condolences.
My thoughts and prayers and with you and his family.
one of the reasons i try to avoid road riding, people just dont pay attention. The sad part about it, is it takes a sad event like this to make people wake the **** up and pay attention when there driving. any ways rant over, sorry to hear about your friend.
Condolences.
I lost a friend last July road riding on a perfectly sunny day on a flat straight road. Only the driver knows what transpired. Be SAFE, STAY ON THE TRAILS!

Keep him lifted in your prayers, if you do that sort of thing. Keep him wife and friends in your minds too.
