I'm sure more photos will be coming in but here are a few I took.

First is the lead rider who carried Curt's ashes and the STOC tags in the procession.

Also a photo of the row of bikes and the display at the luncheon.

I tried posting from my phone and that didn't seem to work, so let's try from the iPad.

The rider that escorted Curt is Gary Klinker, long time friend and former ABATE of Wisconsin President. Curt designed the ABATE web page as a project in college in or about 1994. It was appreciated and accepted and he was the webmaster since then. Another Curt factoid is he would win most of the bike games at the annual ABATE state party. He would find out what kind of games they were going to do and practice before the party. He was always very competetive in everything, but we knew that. As stated at his memorial service, Curt went into most things "Full Throttle".
 
It was obvious from the attendance Curt was loved by many. The church was almost full. Extra chairs were brought in. I feel horrible for his family. Leaving behind his new wife and family is a heavy thought to bear. The pastor did a nice job. I'm not sure of Eric's association with Curt, possibly friend, did a nice job on the eulogy.

I came away with a different feeling about long distance riding. It has lost its luster for me. A selfish emotion, I'm sure. Unfounded? Perhaps.

Pictures can bee seen here:


 
Jeff, nice job with the photo's! I was glad to be a part of this celebration of Curt's life. "Full Throttle" will become a permanent part of the STOC community!

Jeff, your crazy side aside, you are a good man with the camera. Great photos. Thanks for posting. I have a few I'll get around to uploading and posting after I get some sleep (yes, I'm home...been here for a few hours).

Wholly understandable reaction. When somebody passes, it is logical to consider your actions...especially when we share a passion that is not without risks.

No need to apologize for this...you owe it to yourself and your loved ones to choose your path forward.

Thanks for the pics...and ride safe!
