    Mike's Bird was always so clean, I felt bad if I didn't wash my bike before I ridding with Mike. Although, I could never get my chain as clean as his.

    Re: Rider down

    From everything I've read so far about Mike it seems only the best die young! Great send off and when it happens I can only wish mine is similar. As with so many of us there may not be anyone around to post of our demise, so as well as Mike lets give other 'Downed' riders a thought ... RIP and enjoy the roads up there brother.

    Re: Rider down

    I would have definetely joined the bacon run, in memory of Mike...
    Just too far away I am afraid. I know Mike was very keen on that specific run, and from previous years I understand it was a great hit? Any of you guys able to make it, you just should!
