Matt - I was with him this day, just a few hours before the crash.
Another GTAM member and myself had just gone down the 507 and were taking a break at the gas station at the bottom. There were a group of sportbikes there, and I recognized some fellow TTSR members.
We chatted with them, and with Matt a lot. They invited us to join there ride, and we went with them back up the 507.
When we got to the top, we all took a group photo together.
We followed them across the 503 and then went our separate ways.
Trying to get that picture.
FML. I'm in disbelief. I was laughing, joking and smiling with him just hours earlier.
R.I.P. Matt (O.P.P.)
G.W.S. to the injured rider.
I hope his family finds the strength to get through this difficult time.
I hope the six other riders who were with him are ok. Much love to the TTSR community.

Wow, there were two. Terrible for riders the past seven days. Too many lives lost and families losing loved ones. RIP to both riders and ride safely to the rest.
