It is with great sadness I must tell you all our buddy Mike past away this morning. His wife and parents are enroute to Chicago to bring him home. I will post on arrangments as we know. This is a great loss to our community.
Sad news indeed, I had known Mike for a while. If you ever saw the Series truck at any of the MARs that was polished aluminum, tubed and running giant tires that was him. Godspeed wherever it takes you.
WTF! Terrible news! seventyfive and I were just talking to him at The Cove, I remember when I first met him at MAR... he was a great guy.
I always ran into Mike at the Mar, Cove..... did not know him personally, but had many beers and laughs together. Condolences to those of you that were close to him, and his family.
The first time I actually met Mike was at MAR around 2am when he still had his huge Rovertym Disco. We were all out exploring and when we got to talking about DiscoWeb he said "Oh you're Roverlady?! Hell give me a hug!" He and Ivan had a fun time talking and we enjoyed running trails with him. Heck of a nice guy, husband, and father. We are so very sorry he was taken from this world so young.
