    Randy, Amy and I will be in Stowe at the end of March with our ski club. We look forward to stopping in and seeing you. We're both so sorry to hear this sad news. If there is anything at all we can do from down here in Connecticut, please let us know.

    As my wife and I are expecting our first child any day now, this story particularly touches me Randy. I'm incredibly sorry for your loss. My wife too was not incredibly fond of my motorcycle, but it was here before she was, and she slowly began to accept it and even rides with me short distances, giggling the whole way. I know that if I got a more comfortable bike, she'd be on it every weekend with me.

    Cherish every moment guys and gals. You never know when it will be your last.

    Randy,

    As many above have noted, I too am at a loss for words. I am so deeply sorry. Only checking this forum every month or so, I missed this news, until tonight. I vividly remember meeting you and Annette, at a table inside Donny's a couple of years ago. I tried to say hi weekly because I was always impressed with how you made the ride over from Stowe (even during crazy thunderstorms!) and how much she seemed to enjoy it based on our few conversations.

    My condolences to you and your family for such a tragic loss. Keep riding, she will always be there.

    Sandy

    Thanks Sandy, and everybody above I hadn't responded to previously. Encouraging words mean quite a bit. I may make it to Donny's this Tuesday if the weather is decent.

    After that gone for two weeks, including MotoGP in Austin. Annette and I were going to go. Instead it's turned into a guy's weekend in Austin-a pretty cool thing but for the circumstances.
