THE MOMENT OF SILENCE
THE START LINE WAS PACKED on Saturday. Hundreds had paid to line up and race for 50 miles. Before the National Anthem...
... we had a moment of silence.
For Eric Williams.
Killed days prior, while riding with two buddies.
Leaving a wife, and 4 small children behind.
It was actually quiet and reverent.
I thought about Eric's always happy demeanor,
how much I enjoyed seeing him,
and banging bars.
Bros riding through life,
checking in at the races.
The moment was over,
the song was sung...
... and we raced on.
The thing is, we never really know when the race is going to end.
Each of us could be summoned home tomorrow...
- text
- call
- lunch
... so, let's be sure to reach out and let each know we're loved.
