[QUOTE="TriggerT, post: 973780, member: 3107"] I had several E-Mails back and forth with Curt during the last few weeks after my wreck at the end of the Bonzai, and then spoke with him for a few minutes before the start of the MN1K. I also passed him on the way to the first bonus location, but that was the last time I saw him, and it was just a friendly wave as riders do. While I only knew him for just over a year, Curt was an exceedingly friendly and approachable person, and even with only having known him for a short time I saw how much he loved LD riding, and how much he gave back to the sport and the people of the sport. I think to say that we were all completely stunned and speechless when it was announced at the end of the rally that he had been in a fatal accident would be a huge understatement. I cannot believe he is gone. There has been talk of the winds having played a role in the accident, and I can say that the winds in North Dakota on Saturday were some of the worst I have ridden through. I had to stop twice to tighten the strap on my helmet, because the wind was pulling it off my head. Rest in Peace Curt. [/QUOTE]
