Growing up and figuring life out? My condolences to the family.
The last full day I shared with Mark was a ride on our bikes. It was a Sunday and we didn't pull out till 10 or 10:30 am. We rode to New River Gorge bridge in West Virginia and it's around a 260 mile ride. It was a long one and he seamed to be enjoying the journey and the destination. So much so he wanted to share it with his wife. Not sure if they ever made the trip back. The ride home was a long one. We took the fastest route running with a lot of traffic traffic WV. turnpike 80 miles an hour up and down the mountains. Somewhere just inside of Ohio we stopped for gas and food,I was pretty much exhausted by this point. I wanted to stop and just continue the next day, but he pushed me to ride on. I'm sure you know Mark can be a little pushy.lol. It was late a some 600 miles later by the time we stopped at the end of my road. He said that was a good Ride Larry and with that he gave me a fist bump and rode of toward his house and me towards mine. That was the last ride we ever did together. It's to bad he couldn't overcome the demons that haunted him ,but in most cases you won't last long fighting them by yourself and he thought he could. RIP Mark
