Mat made a terrible mistake that cost him his life...but he was a very cool guy who took care of his family and was a good Father to his children.. I wish I was going to visit him in the hospital today,rather than going to his funeral.. Its been a sad week.. My other friend Brandon,who introduced me to Mat,knew him for 17 years and Mat was like an older brother to him.. Brandon has been a mess all week and I really feel bad for him. Its just terrible...When shit like this happens. For everyone involved. Thanks for the shout outs everyone.. I will show this post at the funeral today. Blake |

| Knee Dragger ![]() Joined: Oct 2006 From: Silverdale, Wa I Ride: DRZ 400SM, 848evo | I'm really really sorry to hear another rider and friend has been killed. Yes, I have just been through this, with a close friend that was killed riding and it is just terrible, just terrible. I especially feel for the family and his friends, and my thoughts/prayers go out to them. Time heals, but just seems to go slow during these times. Last edited by Willow; 10-13-2012 at 06:55 PM.. |

The hard way sometimes doesn't give you a second chance. So yes, sometimes it means we pay for it with our lives even if that isn't fair. That being said, my condolences to Icon for losing a friend so suddenly and unexpectedly. Last edited by Tigress; 10-16-2012 at 06:06 PM.. |
