I have something in mind but would like to wait a couple of months before I bring it up. Please Nisha do call on us anytime. We are all here for you. Sorry I could not be there yesterday, but I have been thinking about Milo every Day, may he rest in peace and his memory will be with us always.

I was just checking in for the first time this week, and... Well, I don't know if I can find the words.

Only just the other day was thinking of you both, cursing my phone and the fact that I lost your email address after thinking I'd saved it at the brew pub.

I realize there is little one can do, but if there is anything, please don't hesitate to ask. It would be my pleasure. Or get in touch when you come to Boston to visit your family. While our meeting was brief, my memories are lasting. In peace...

This is Nisha, wife of the blond dread. I wanted to tell all of you that Milo died on Sunday night. We were on the bike, and it was a total freak accident, but he put it down and it flipped and landed on his neck. He didnt suffer. We are having a memorial service on friday in Sidney New York at 2 PM. It is at the Lehey Funeral home.


Hi Nisha...we've never met, but by 56 years old (me) you get to survive too many of these notices...and each one is like a knife thru the motorcycle heart. what can one possibly say that isn't trite and awkward. The fact that you took time to post here says volumes about the connection you feel, and the words of response like-wise speaks volumes.

I've sat thru cancer and heart with miserable results and if I have any say as to my personal choice of checking out, it would be a quick "let's get it over with"...find some solace in that...my best to the survivors, and a reminder to live like someone left the gate open...cause we got just the one shot at it...make it count.

make sure you take some time for yourself to stay healthy minded when the chores are done, and as others here have implied...we celebrate the life, and survive the valleys.

find the center again. I didn't know Milo, and I don't know you...but this is for you. I don't have to know you to share the pain. After the frenzy dies down in a few weeks, take an hour a day just for you...private time...make that healing time a religion and it's not rude to shut everyone else out for that hour.

I'm sending the healing vibe...accept it in the spirit it's given.

Equinox is the highest point around, too bad it costs $$ to go up there... I bet Tito has a good idea. Whatever you guys come up with, I'm in, I think it's a great idea.

I have been bouncing this in my head while I'm doing the legal thing for my mother. We all have praised the food aspect of good BBQ, So why don't we have the Friday meet and greet and BBQ dedicated to MIlo and all fallen riders. We could put a donation jar out and at the end of the meet donate the money to the charity of Nisha's choice? Maybe the Friday meet and greet with Milo's BBQ celebration?

Just an idea, feel free to offer an idea or change to reflect the feelings this BTB has brought to us.

Sounds good to me bro. I don't think we have to worry about him being forgotten, but it sure would be nice for anyone new next year to be reminded!
