He was really an awesome guy. We joked alot and he was a fellow Motobecane rider. We even joked about starting a Moto cycling team between him and another friend. Seriously one of the nicest people you have EVER met. He was no newb either, he followed all the laws of the road and rode very safely. He was a VERY strong rider and I never dropped him on any climb, maybe a few times on flats.
I'm still very upset about this...I hope the sh8thead that did this gets what he deserves.
