Hi all,

For anyone interested in attending Dave's funeral service, here is the info:

The service will be held at 10:30am this Thursday, July 7th. Location is the Grace Covenant Church at 10101 W Mississippi (NE corner of Mississippi & Kipling in Lakewood). Dave's obituary will be in Wednesday's Denver Post.

Dave was "V4Whore" on the forum in case you only know him by that name.

Thank you so much,
Gary

If anyone is interested in Riding down to Dave's Funeral...


Official meet point for Dave's Funeral Service will be at the MOCO at 9:45am. It's about a 15 min ride to the Church where the Service is being held at.

KSU is at 10am Sharp. I (we) won't be lagging. If you are late you can catch us.

The route will be from the MOCO down Morrison Rd. Left To Kipling Pkwy. Right To W. Mississippi Ave.


If you plan on joining this ride, I please ask you to be respectful and keep your ego's in check. There's a time and a place and this is not one of those times or places...

I did not have the pleasure of meeting dave but i would like to attend this ride as well as the service in honor of a fellow rider. However if there is no room in the chapel i will respectfully withdraw so that someone who knew him can attend.

I'm hoping Gary (GuitarX) will chime in on this one. But i don't think people will be turned away. If anything, just riding down to show support would suffice.

Gonna try and make it Gary if I can get out of my court thing. If so, I'll bring some CD's with the full-resolution pics from our ride burned on them, 1 for you, and 1 for the family if they want it.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I'll be there. The ride is only about 4-5 miles, so that shouldn't take too long.

I'll have 2 copies there for the service Gary, as I was able to push my court date out 2 weeks so I can attend. I'm glad to be able to go and pay my respects.

On another note, though that's way cool that there's a ride from the South planned, how about one from the North? I plan on riding down from Boulder. Anyone wanna meet up on the way down?

We should probably get a rough head count so the family knows how many of us to expect on bikes.

Just to clarify...East on Morrison to Kipling, Left (N) on Kipling to Miss, Right (E) on Miss, quick left into church.

I'm hoping I can make it...not sure if I'll be able to take off from work.

I will join the ride to show support for not only a fellow rider, but a fellow club member. I will refrain from the service however to reserve space for family and those who knew him better.

Has anyone checked with his family to ensure they are cool with bikes/riders in gear at his service? I’m sure Dave would love it, as would any of us at our own service, but non-riding family might not.

Would anybody want to have someplace to throw their gear once we get to the service? If so I can cage it and you all can lock it in the truck, instead of lugging it in.

This was checked long before i posted the ride.... i've been in contact with Gary, who has been in contact with the family. We're all good.

As for the ride from MOCO to the church, Randall (Snowman) and I will be leading. We ask that everyone observes all traffic laws and we stay in a single lane in 2x2 formation. We'll go into more details before we set off.

For those that don't know either myself or Randall. Look for the riders on a Black Honda Blackbird 1100XX (Randall) and a Black Ducati Hypermotard (Me).

Again, if you plan on being an asshat do us all a favor and stay the hell home.

I'm working with Terry at Abate to enable donations for Dave. The "Randy Run" was a fund originated by and for a fallen biker that has since evolved in to a process that enables donated funds to turn in to grants for injured motorcyclists or in this case the loved ones left behind. I originally contacted Terry and Abate for help with this after speaking with Gary R, and determining we need a way to provide a method of donation that will not result in tax liability for anyone. I would hate for good hearted gifts to be harvested off the top by uncle sam. Dave's daughter would have our Abate Angels Terry Howard and Jim Wilson watching over any funds and I am confident that they are more than capable of appropriate distribution.
Here is a link to the Randy Run page, simply scroll down and click donate. You don't have to be an Abate member to give or receive help from Abate.

There's a glitch with the link at the moment, but it will be fixed shortly. If you need a big tax deduction give big. We'll get you a receipt and you get to fill up your tank with good Karma!

I never had the pleasure of knowing Dave but I'm saddened to hear of his passing. My condolences to his family, especially to his young daughter.

Events like this should serve as a notice to all of us. Dave was by all accounts a great guy and excellent rider.

We're only here for a limited time and eventually fate catches up with all of us.

One day someone will be able to sum up your entire life in a few paragraphs. The best that we can hope for is that people thought of us well and miss us.

God speed sir and to everyone else have a safe motorcade tomorrow.

Please all of you remember this ^^. There is no fund out there that helps fallen riders and or their families. This is the only fund out there that helps us as riders and it is tax deductible!!! We helped 5 injured riders last year alone. We paid their mortgages, rent, bought them groceries, helped one replace his roof. I hope that none of us ever need it...but that is what it's there for. When you donate to this fund, you are helping fellow downed riders and/or their families in their time of need. Doesn't matter what you ride...just that you ride!! I did not know Dave...but I know all too well how much it hurts to lose a friend. Godpseed Dave.

+1, that was a sombre ride.
The service was wonderful with both sad and happy moments. I'm glad we were able to give a good turn out. I was told by a couple of his family members that they really appreciated our show of support at this difficult time. I even overheard somebody say it was great to watch his friends ride in "in force". I guess it's just because they are not used to seeing so many bikes together, and they didn't realize we were such a big family, related by 2 wheels rather than DNA. His Mom was moved that people rode in from all over, so kudos for making the trek to those from Fort Collins to the Springs and everywhere in between.

I agree on all counts June.

Dave's mom thanked us for attending. She said in part that Dave "loved that damn bike". She wanted us all to be extra careful and safe while out riding.

I know I got all choked up and couldn't even finish my sentence when I gave the pics of Dave from our last ride on CD to his daughter. I can't even imagine how tough it must have been for Dave's brother, and friends, especially Gary. Great job, I couldn't have done it.
