I was away for the weekend and took in a long ride on Saterday morning, tar and singletrack, bush and road, thinking about Burry and cycling and what cycling means to me.

The taxi driver didn't go out that morning looking to kill anyone, it was an accident that, truth be told, could have happened to anyone of us. I hope he finds peace, because I would not like to be the one that this happens to. I respect that he didn't drive away.

The law must run it's course, and I hope that the right legal decisions are made.

Exactly what we did for Tinkerbell. Celebrate a life lived, not mourn a life lost.

Just a suggestion guys and mods.

Can we keep this thread as a memory to our Champ , if anyone was to google R.I.P. Burry they don't need to read the speculative posts and perhaps those posts can be move to :http://www.thehubsa....eally-happened/

+1 this thread is where family/friends/hubbers can come back to in a year or 2 or 10 and see the all the good wishes and support that was given by hub members.
