I saw this under a non-specific topic on this forum, and I think it might be better read with the Sturgis heading. Please permit my reposting of the writer's comments here:

Well, I did repost it for you Mare under sturgis, but somehow it got put here too, although I thought I stopped this send.
now i've posted in the wrong place AGAIN... But in any event, drive carefully if you're going to Sturgis!
This is a very serious topic, so don't think I'm treating it lightly. However, when I saw the heading "Sturgis Warning", I couldn't help but think of the boy I dated when I was in college. Sturgis was his last name. Gee, wish someone had warned me!
Thanks sandi! I think I was still in shock when I wrote last night! Appreciate it being brought up to the top of the board! Have you been to the Rally? Such a good time! I just was greiving the loss of life of that young man heading out there!
