he was a great kid....i went school with him. we talked at the Y where we worked out and discussed bikes when he asked me about mine...this was about a month ago. i couldn't believe the news and didnt even know that he had purchased a bike. RIP

i would occasionally ride on 275, but driving on it in a car this past weekend opened up my eyes as to how crazy that rode is.... high volume traffic, narrow lanes, uneven pavement, sharp turns, and construction everywhere. It's just not safe, especially for inexperienced riders.
