A memorial for fallen rider Ike Woodard

And I want to take a moment to say thank you for not making it a distraction in an already tricky turn…probably one of the trickiest. (Lori got hit there head-on by a biker who lost it and blew out into the other lane.) You can't really see the memorial from the road, and I think that's a safer way of doing it.

We were in our car making a run back on 6/24/09 and came around a blind curve to find a semi on our lane. We were fortunate enough to have been close enough to a pull-off to get out of its way. We have dreaded the day this kind of news would come. RIP Ike.

I have come up on a truck in my lane many times here. What a joke. You come up to a cop giving tickets or a truck busting up your bike.

This is Lacy, Ike's wife although never married we looked at each other as being gods children and as we lived together we shared the same respect for each other as those should do when they are married. Ike was the love of my life. I was there laying with him after the crash and held onto his hand talking to him telling him I loved him repeatedly. His spirit lives on in most of us and he will live on in me till the day I die. One day I will be back to that road, but until then he will be riding that road in the clouds above passing everyone up and laughing while doing it. Not many could pass us up on that road but when they did we both enjoyed trying to safely keep up. Thanks everyone for the time of our lives on that road.

So very sorry for your loss, Lacy. You'll never know how many folks knew and loved Ike but hopefully that will ease the burden some.
