Jeremy was a VERY young man and a good friend of mine and all who knew him.
He will be missed.

Holy cow!! I only met him once, when he was at Karla's place, picking up the Limey Accent bike that Bob Jones built. He had said that he had just finished paying off his house and finally had "play money" to spend. He was WAY too young to be taken... My condolences to his family, including his XS one...1980 XS850SG - Sold

I never had the chance to meet him face to face, but I liked his convictions for HIS favorite things. As others have said, he was WAY to young!

I try to explain to non riding friends the spidy-sense that one develops for survival on 2 wheels. Found it transfers with me when cage driving. It can only be gained when everything that can ruin or end your life becomes instinctively aware to you as you roll. And the sobering knowledge that sometimes if a certain possibility of occurrences happens there is nothing you can do. As I suspect may have happened here.Funny how the thoughts of someone you didn't know will live with you long after they have passed.I will rename my start button The Jeremy Reed Button and welcome him to my future rides. May we ride together a long time.79SF
