Brian Stuart Grieger

Brian was a delight as a riding buddy an co-worker. I have many fond memories of the fun we had together!

Brian was a dear friend in high school. It was in the early 1970´s when people with curly hair wore it "natural". He had the largest "fro" in our class if not Los Angeles. It was reddish brown and looked good. However, his kindness and warmth outshone his enormous hair.

I know I´m exceedingly late in contributing to Brian´s memorial as it has been 13 years since he died. I learned of his passing at the 40th reunion for Birmingham High. We were close friends in high school but lost touch after graduation. Brian was kind, creative and sensitive. I remember preparing headdress feathers for the new Birmingham Braves marching band uniforms and drawing up the formations for Friday night football games with him. Outside of the band, Brian and I had a meaningful...

Well, talk about a true posthumous post...I had heard about Brian's passing soon after the event, but never actually found this page. Today, for some reason, I was telling a friend about him, and accidentally came across this website, read the entries, and feel compelled to add, even though it's 6 years after the fact.

Brian was my teenage idol, my mentor in two important aspects of my life (one of which I didn't realize was that important until I was much older). We attended...

I just learned about Brian's passing. He built our 48 spoke touring wheels back in '06. They took us across Asia, China, Tibet and Alaska back to Boise with no problems. "May the winds be at your back" Brian.

I first met Brian working with him at Tailwind Bikes. I will never forget him or the funny things he said, Little seizures, RCH (measurement), Coldago, Canyonwale, Scwhinnhumffp, Chicken wing on a string.....
RIP my friend

There is not a day that goes by that I do not miss you Brian. I am "being good".

I just found out about Brian's passing. He taught a community ed class about bicycle repair that I enrolled in. It's crazy, but just in those few weeks I attended class I felt like we were great friends! He had the best stories and the class became much more (for me) about listening to Brian's great, passionate stories than about bicycle repair. My sincere condolences.

I am a year late in getting the sad news. Brian was and still is my hero. I rode a bicycle from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic in 2000. I hit a railroad track hard in Pasco WA and struggled across Oregon on a bent rim. I did not have the skill set to re-true the wheel and was getting very discouraged. I randomly ran in to Brian in Eagle one morning. He took me to his house and laced up a new Mavic rear wheel in his garage and gave me some spare spokes and sent me off. The whole time he was...
