This was a great tribute to Chris. Thanks for writing it, Rick. Sorry to miss you as I passed through Bham this time, but rest assured we'll ride again.

I’m counting on it! New roads to show you.

I am so saddened to hear this.

I too was on that same Sunday ride you speak of, Rick... as well as being one of those shelled off the back before Hwy 78.

Truly an awesome guy who will be deeply missed by so many!

I’m sorry to hear about Chris’ passing. I had similar encounters with him out on the roads; always friendly, humble, and strong. He truly is a local legend. Thanks for the beautiful tribute.
