Unhappy [AUS] You really need to be at Bike Night (Ming's) tonight...

We lost one of our own last weekend.

Rich Carroll was doing the thing he loved most - riding his Ducati Monster. Details are few, and mostly irrelevant. It is my understanding that his wife and some of the family may try to make it out. As many of 'us' (riders) need to be there to help them try to understand and make sense out of why we ride.

See y'all there...

Thanks to all that made it out for bike night - a nice crowd.

Reminder: Tonight (Thursday) at One World Theatre from 5-9PM

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sour...27637&t=h&z=15

I'm going to try and get there at about 7:00-7:30. If anyone is interested in meeting up and riding there as a 'group', post up or PM me and let me know.

Thanks!
