Subject: [WRTT] Man Down
For those of you who were not aware, the local cycling community lost a great rider and friend in Joe Manning. On Sunday, Joe died in a mountain biking accident while on vacation in Utah. The details are still a bit sketchy. The following link provides some information about the accident: http://www.deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,705305396,00.html. Guy's Racing would like to put together a fundraiser for Joe's wife Beth and her kids when the time is appropriate. I'll keep everyone posted.
Thanks,
Trevor
