Saturday Night

The heat of the day forced us back to the shop with every swamp cooler in the building on full blast. Cold beer, water, and pizza kept the party going until the wee hours of the morning.

Last Saturday

I didn't really take any photos of the memorial service, I guess I had too many things on my mind. But I was able to steal a couple from the day to share with everyone. 
It wa s great turnout with awesome funny stories of Brian. Lots of smiles, tears and great friends to share this incredible day with.

GoFundme For Brian

As many of you have already seen, there is a Gofundme for Brian's family. There has been a huge amount of support already, and we would like to thank everyone who has taken the time and donated some of their hard earned money to this cause, Thanks You!
HERE is the link for this if you haven't already donated and would like to. The costs surrounding this entire unfortunate event have been astronomical. Just to get him back to the states is over $11K.
Thanks again

Celebration of Life and Ride for Brian

The celebration of life for Brian will be held at 2pm on June 24th at the Sonora Elks Lodge. Food will be served from 4-6, and the bartender will be done at 8pm. This is open to the public for all of his family, friends, and people who would like to show their respect for this great man.
On Sunday the 25th of June, there will be a ride, which Brian and his wife have done many times in the past, down 49 to Mariposa, and then up into Yosemite. Destination is the Awhahnee Hotel in the valley. The Sonora group will then ride back via 120, and everyone is welcome to join us, or to split off and head home a different route. Again, this is open to everyone, and we want you there no matter how long you knew Brian.
Please email us with any questions.
Thanks
DTMC

Goodbye Troy, You Will Be Missed!

Our good friend Troy, pictured on the right at our 10 Year Party, had a very serious health complication over the weekend. Troy has been a friend, a wealth of knowledge, and one of the many helpful hands that kept us and our friends on the road for the past 10 years.
Troy, we love you, and we will see you again!

Idaho Bound

Yes, we did the unthinkable: trailered our shit to Boise. Work, family and reality forced our hands and it was either haul ass in the truck or don't go. 
We hauled ass.

Oregon somewhere


But by nightfall we were there!
