Off on Another Ride

A meloncholy ride this weekend.

This Saturday marks 12 months since we lost FarRider #1, David Davo Jones. He was participating in his love of LD riding and taking part in the Ironbutt Rally in the USA when he got taken out by deer strike in northern Idaho.

His favourite quote was "We are all destined to die. Some choose to live while alive."

All his fellow FarRiders certainly agree, but we didn't expect him to go so soon.

So, this weekend, about 25 of us from all over the country will meet at one of Davo's favourite places on his LD rides, Horrocks Pass in South Australia. There we plan to have a small service, where we will remember Davo and give each other support.

After that, a few of us plan to ride home via Uluru and Alice Springs.

I will attempt to update this blog as I go, but cannot guarantee there will be access everywhere.
