Sorry to hear about your uncle.

Haven't been to it yet but it sounds like he needs a spot at the Husky monument/memorial .

Hey Jess, you haven't been around for a long time. I'm sorry to hear that, it's pretty hard, we all lose people and it sucks badly. Whatever you do I'm sure he will be watching down with pride, and whatever you do will mean alot to him.

Jess, when you lose someone close it's never the same, but you just gotta make it work. Hope all turns out well on your trip :thumb:

I've stacked rocks and sticks in a special formation in special places to honor some of my fallen riding buddies. Best wishes to you on your trip. I bet he would want to know your having a good time riding and would be pleased that you want to honor him in some way, no matter how little.

That is nice what you did. I personally have put a memorial out at the Husky site for my buddy killed out there a couple of years ago. It is always a hard thing to get over losing someone that you were close to. I have not been to Dove Springs area in a couple of years but I have been riding out there for 35 years and it is not quite the same as it was then. I love that place and everything around it but unfortunately so much has been closed off and so many people are there that it is not the place for me anymore. Perhaps I will make my way up there again just for old time sakes.
