echo four romeo, a forum member has died. he passed away july 31 2017, a drunk driver took him out..... I write this now because I just found out about this a few days ago , about a year late.... I had the pleasure of meeting him once at a steak house gathering of tenere riders at Winchester texas about 3 years ago. and he and I rode back to buda and had a chance to visit awhile.... young ,very nice , a whole life ahead of him ended because of a drunk.... now a bit of a back story... a week ago a friend wrecked his bike and ended up being star flighted to a san Antonio military hospital , my neighbor Richard who is well known in the dual sport world asked me to go see our friend . after the visit Richard said he would do a write up on the forum two wheeled Texans ... so the next day I look and do not find the post , so I lurk around and open ,gone but not forgotten . saw RIP echo four romeo ..... I know that handle , this cant be , but sadly it is ..... seems a few Yamaha tenere forum members paid their respects on TWT not realizing he was a Yamaha tenere forum member..... so if you go to TWT you will find the info and pictures of him ..... some how we missed this , the anniversary of his passing is Tuesday the 31st..... I got to know him over about 4 hours , others that know him or who have met him may not know either..... breaks my heart....
