RIP Rich Carrol...........RipTearShred

[WonderBoy]

We'll miss you Rich.     Prayers and sympathies to your family, and fresh Pirelli diablos for you and your track thrashings in Heaven.

+1 your post Brian...at least he went out doing what he loved to do.  No better way to go.

I hope this hasn't offended anyone. I apologize if it has. Again, my deepest sympathy to Rich's friends and family.

I couldn't have said it better.
Reminds me of a rodeo clown friend of mine who lost his 14 yr old son to bullriding. When asked what he would've done differently, he said "If I'd have known when his rope was pulled and he called for the gate that he would meet the Lord, i'd have told him to ride 'im pretty. he died doing what he loved."

Rest in peace Rich and may all your rides be pretty from now on.
Steve
