Just a quick note guys. My two riding groups Daytonasportbikes.com & Exhibitionofspeed-florida.com went for a ride today & we had a rider go down & get killed. It was a normal Sunday ride for us, just a freak accident. Please say a prayer for his family, thanks guys.

From what I heard, the bike, a zx10, just slid out from under him on a turn, a truck was coming the other way...no where to go. The real pisser is that his wife always rode "clean-up" w\the group, so she rode up on the scene right after it happened. Great couple...he will be missed.

Very sorry to hear about this. I always pray that these accidents will not happen, but they do and it's a shame every time. I lost a friend many years ago like this. A prayer is sent to all from here in Calif.

So sorry to hear that. My prayers will go out to his family. I hope your club will rally around his family, and let her know that your club will always be there for them. Mish |

she's held up well though, considering. If any FL Bird's are interested, we are having a Memorial\Poker run for Kevin on April 15, 2007, around Deltona, Deland, Debary, Osteen, & Eustis. More info available @ Kevin O'Neill Memorial Thanks guys!
