Default was not a member but she was special

Natasha Louis, who helped start SBC (sportbikechix forum) went down on jennings GP and passed away. Back when I first started and was having a problem, she encouraged me and never laughed at me for stupid little things I had problem with. Because of her, I am able to enjoy riding today.

Natasha, rcrgirl84 Thank you so much and I will miss you big time.

Sad to lose a friend, Yumyum.
Will say a prayer for her.

It happens far too often to all of us in our biking community................

Remember the good times you had and
Ride your bike in her honor.
She'd like that...........
It's one of the things I do to help the feelings of loss and helplessness.
I feel your anguish....................

It's really sinking in now... I am really sad..She was a coach at absolute trackdays. She was a great rider and Inspiration to many female riders. Always upbeat, patient.

sorry yum for your loss. RIP. i'm sure she was a great person.


it's hard to deal with a friend's passing, there's no real way to handle it. you just keep going, remember all that she taught you, and try to celebrate the good things about her and her life, not mourn the losses.

Sorry to hear - Very sad loss Yum, I had this happen last summer with my best friend ,
and basically the way forward for me was to remember and celebrate all the great times
and experiences we had together.

Losing close friends is difficult to come to terms with, as time passes the loss eases
somewhat, leaving fond memories that remain with you forever
