I went down this road last night, but had to turn around because PD had closed the street. After posting on a local forum, I learned that what I had feared had really happend.
I didn't know him, but this kind of thing is a sobering reminder. For those not familiar with the area, this section of road is NOT that challenging.... So while I don't want to rush to judgment, I do assume he HAD to have really been pushing it. I don't know....
Any local guys know him or have more info?
