We lost a brother and friend today

[thesnowgod]

So sorry to post this but I don't know what else to do today. I really don't.

We lost Ashwin today on Route 28 near the Gap Store (Tail of the Dragon area).

Our website meets there once a year for a group ride and to hang out. Im not there this year and details are sketchy at this point.

He was a dedicated rider and loved this sport more than anything in the world. He was very active with trackdays and was also an MSF RiderCoach.

I miss him already and just want to be sick over it all.



Miss you Ash. You were a good friend.

Sad to hear this - RIP

There have been a lot of accidents on 28 this year - probably more then a dozen when I was down there in June for a week.
