To Spe's(Steve's mountain bike name due to his first light system) Family.
It is with great sadness to hear of his passing and a reflection great happiness for the good times we spent riding together. For many years it was a regular thing to go to your home for buckwheat pancakes and an early ride up Mt. Tam. Or picking him up for the Thursday night ride. He was a good friend and my life was enriched by knowing him. You have my condolences. I have included some pictures from our trip to Crested Butte, Co in the late 80's. Please let me know if and when there is the memorial service. Thank you
Tim McGill ( AKA Bonz)
