THOR
From what I can tell most everyone on this site has been riding for alot of years. So I'm sure you have all heard of Thor motorcycle product. Well the man who that company was named after lived right here in Reno, Nv. Opened and ran the most succesful motorcycle shop in town. He was involved in a motorcycle accident the beginning of the month and passed away due to injuries on sunday. If you would like to pay your respects to Mr. Richard Thorwaldsen please visit his memorial website. He was an ispiration to a lot of people in these parts and all over.
Godspeed Thor
