RIP V4Whore

[bornwildnfree]

I don't have a lot of details, but the CSC lost V4Whore (Dave) on Deckers yesterday. RIP rider and you will be greatly missed.

:(

[Sarge]

God damn, this is a BAD year so far...

RIP V4Whore

[Snowman]

Dave and Gary Rosen went for a ride at lunch yesterday. All we know at this time is Dave died almost immediately somewhere along the route to Deckers. Gary is pretty shaken and isn't ready to talk about it.

Gary has said that he would like to think about doing some sort of benefit for Dave's daughter, if anyone has ideas.

[Sean]

That's terrible news. RIP Dave.

[ghostrider_9]

RIP Dave!

[madvlad]

My condolences... RIP

[cptschlongenheimer]

Crap.
Even though I never had the chance to meet him it sucks to lose one of our own. My condolences to his family and all of his friends here.

[Nick_Ninja]

Not good.

[~Barn~]

Very sad to hear this. =\

My best to his family. Godspeed Dave.

[Cap'n Crunch]

I don't know what to say.... this just really sucks. Dave was a great guy and will be missed. Please keep us informed about the benifit for his daughter and any services that may be held for him. I will do what it takes to be there.

This is a sad day for the CSC....

[CaptGoodvibes]

RIP Dave. :(

[SloBlue]

I stop by this site about every day to see what's up.

This is the news I never want to see.

RIP rider. : (

[aerofaze]

RIP, Dave. I am sorry I never got a chance to meet you personally, though we were able to ride together once. Any friend of Gary's had to be a great person.

[VFR]

Dang...

RIP

[Bueller]

Met and rode with him once. He was a good guy and good rider. He died doing something he loved. We will keep you and your loved ones in our thoughts.

[Matty]

Dave was an awesome guy and a good rider. Tragic and sad news.

My sincerest condolences to his friends, family, and Gary who had to see it go down.

RIP brotha...

[McVaaahhh]

RIP Dave. :(

My condolences to his friends and family, never something I want to log-in and hear about...

[CaneZach]

RIP, Dave.

[spideyrdr]

I never met Dave but obviously news like this is crushing. I hope the best for his friends and family in this time of grief.

[ian22]

RIP Dave....I'll keep his family in my prayers.

[Tylar]

RIP, Dave.

[CYCLE_MONKEY]

I only met Dave on a couple of occasions, and really only rode with him once on a great Deckers run. But I knew right away, that this was a guy I'd like to and be proud to be friends with. Also one of the few I'd trust to ride hard alongside of as he was a fast and seasoned rider.

I'm saddened to lose him as a new friend, especially as I'd hoped to know him better and ride with him more, and can only imagine the pain Gary is dealing with as he was there with him as one of his closest friends.

RIP Dave, Godspeed to you brother, and condolences to family and friends. You will be missed...... :cry:

[Titus]

Condolences to the family & friends.

sad news...

My thoughts and prayers are with Dave's family and friends.

Godspeed Dave.

Be careful out there everybody.

[0N1X]

My deepest condolences to his family and all friends. I'm new and regret not getting to know him...

Ride safe everyone, always

[oh10raven]

Horrible news, RIP. Thoughts and prayers go out to his friends, family and anyone else grieving for his loss. Ride safe

[DriverDave]

I rode with Dave many times and always enjoyed conversing with him at lunch stops. He was a truly good man, and will be greatly missed. I'm going to miss seeing our 2 VFRs sitting together, like at the start of almost every group ride I've been on. I always aspired to ride at his level. RIP Dave

[thankgod]

Tragic...

[TinkerinWstuff]

fuck me.

I "met" Dave over at VFRworld. Introduced him to the CSC and rode with him twice. We traded PMs over at VFRW and chatted from time to time. I know he was in the process of exciting things and trying to get some work that would allow him to travel.

This one hits a little close for me

[Drift]

RIP Dave.

[TinkerinWstuff]

Gary posted this pic over on VFRW after a mild January ride earlier this year. I hope no one minds. Here's a pic of our friend doing what he loved - well the pic is mostly of the bikes but he managed to be captured as well.....

[= Buckeye Jess =]

Hopefully his daughter will eventually come to understand that she lost him while he was doing something he was passionate about. RIP rider and may some comfort find its way to his family/friends soon.

[Mntntoproc]

RIP. Thought and prayers to family and friends!

[CYCLE_MONKEY]

Here's some pics I took of our ride a month ago:

[TinkerinWstuff]

thanks for sharing. those are great pics

[longrider]

RIP Dave We never met, but it sounds like you were someone I would have liked to know.

[Canuck]

Sad news. Sounded like a good guy. My condolences to his family and friends.

[asp_125]

This one hits too close to home. I met Dave on a couple of rides and he went tubing with us. A great guy and I am saddened at his passing. Godspeed Dave.

Sorry to hear. RIP :(

[Vellos]

I personally won't ride to 7-11 without my gear on.

And please don't take this the wrong way, Vellos. But jeans are not "just fine".

After Dave's comment on the "Canyon Carving: What to wear" thread I got myself full leathers and won't do a spirited run without them. His passing is tragic and I give my condolences to his friends and family. RIP.

RIP Dave, Godspeed.

Thanks for citing my album. That ride was so fun and I'm glad Dave got to hang out with us Dirty Southies at least once.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

At least he passed doing what he loved.
Dave, we never met that I know of...I wish we had as from the past 3 pages, you must have been a great dude.

As a side note...I don't want to die doing what I love, i'd rather just live my life and watch my kids grow into adults, and I'm sure he'd be thinking the same thing. RIP fellow rider...

Everyone this goes to show you that no matter how good a rider you are, bad things can happen...please slow down on the public roads and go fast at the track...for all of our sakes.

[jrhurt]

Condolences to the family

His last words to me, a week ago, on the birth of our first child. He was down south looking for work at the time.


Congrats from Baton Rouge, Dave! Glad to hear everything went well. Your life is about to get a whole lot crazier! Motorcycling isn't even in the same ballpark.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

^^^it's something only a parent can know/feel. I'm not saying i'm not gonna take chances, or stop going fast, and not have fun, just a little more careful/calculated risks now. I have ppl in my life that...w/o me aren't going to/can't support themselves, plus i don't want to miss out on the really important things that are going to happen in their lives. I honestly wouldn't be able to type these things if i was still in my 20's, only time can provide this type of wisdom :lol:

[BadR6Man]

I am very Sadddened to hear the lost of another rider. I am sure of that I have met him at least once during the southie newb ride. Godspeed to you Dave on your way to heaven with your Viffer.

Gary, I wish you can recover quickly from this accident. The pain you feel for a lost friend is very hard to cope with.

Sending out my love and regards to all that are effected in this tragic loss.

John

[fiveninerzero]

RIP.

[tecknojoe]

Very sad. RIP

[thaitanic]

riding high performance machine is risky. on track or on public roads. fact that sport we enjoy has higher probability of serious injury or death is the reality we all live with. RIP rider.

[duelist13]

RIP Dave, you left us way too soon. Maybe I'm going crazy but I'm starting to see my injured and deceased friends riding on public roads these days. I think I'm done with the public rides.

RIP Dave, and condolences to your family. If the service is open to non-family, I'd like to attend. I'm really sorry to hear about this.

[BlueRanger]

Sad to hear. Prayers to you and your family.

I remember him from the Springs ride earlier this season.

[Ghost]

Maybe I'm going crazy but I'm starting to see my injured and deceased friends riding on public roads these days. I think I'm done with the public rides.


After I lost my best friend and another one got severely injured I turned to the track and rode there almost exclusively for 5 years with only the occasional street ride with very good/close friends.

Things like this always affect people, even those who may not have known Dave, and some re-evaluation of how, when and where you ride is, I think, very appropriate...

[green_zx7r]

I've never met Dave. My thoughts go out to his family. I have a daughter myself, and this hits pretty damn close to home...

If we are doing any kind of fund raising for his daughter, PLEASE let me know. I'm in.

Yusuke

[bennice]

I didn't know him from here, but he looks familiar. I think I may have met him on some random ride awhile back, and he seemed like a really nice dude. Thoughts and prayers with his family.

RIP rider

There is an online guest book if anyone wants to express their condolences to his family. It doesn't register immediately, so we have inadvertently signed twice. There is a fuller story of his life and passing here http://www.allremembrances.com/obit.aspx?obitID=2311&BLT=1f2bcba9-105f-432f-9553-dd9e268fedd8

Thanks for the info, June.

[RedheadRider]

Aw shit! I missed this news at the time since I'm banged up from my off at HPR. I'm so very sorry to hear this. I met and rode with Dave twice, great guy and as a fellow VFR rider, a kindred spirit. RIP
