Some Of You Here May Now Me! I Run The New Club LOD Out Of Wisconsin. I'm Trying To Do It Right! On Saturday I Made My Way To The Stunt Show In West Bend. Saw All The Men And Ladies From Mil-town Wheele Boys. They Had A Great Turn Out. People Came From All Over. When My Girlfriend And I Got To The Show We Called Some Of My Friends From Milwaukee. Told Them To Get Up Here And See The Show. They Got Everyone Together And Came To The Show On There Bikes. They Were Glad To See All The Bieks And The Great Weather We Were Having. One Of Me Friends (Grant) Was With The Group. He Was Riding His Brother In Laws Wifes Bike. A Suzuki Sv650.
After The Show They Stop At The Off Ramp Going To Holy Hill. Thought They Would Go For A Ride Through The Shape Turns. With Steve (brother In Law) And Grant (no Longer With Us) Going About 40 Mph then Hit the turn were The Driveway That Goes Into Holy Hill Church. With Grant In The Rear He Went Down. No One In The Group Knows What Happen. He Went Acrossed The Road, And Into The Gard Rail. Steve Turned Around And Tried To Help Grant. As The Rest Of The Group Got To The Stop Sign They Did Not See Steve Or Grant. They Started To Head Back Were They Saw The Bike Into The Gard Rail. The Ambulance Showed Us Very Quickly. They Took Grant To The Hartford Hospital. Were They Tried To Save Him. At Around 4:30 They Told Everyone He Was Not Going To Make It.

 

I'm going to ask for all your help. I would like to put together a ride, or something, were the money we raise goes to Grants family. He leaves behind a wife, a boy, and one more on the way. They are going to need some help. Any kind of help the clubs around here can give would be great. We here at LOD are going to work on it. Please try to get ahold of me through my email at www.lodwi.com It would be great to get everones help. Grant was a great friend to all. He was someone that could always make you laugh. Please let me now how you would be willing to help. Thank you!!!

Here is just a little bite of what Grant D. Harms was about. He was born on July 31,. 1973 and died on May 21st, 2005. He grow up in Port Washington, and graduating from high school in 1991. On september 19, 1998 he married wife Heather Botsford of Port Washington. They resided in Oshkosh for the last seven years. He was a truck driver for Badger Federal Services of Oshkosh. He was so go at that that he tought safety classes for truck driving. He was interested in computers, music, and video games. He had a great sense of humor and could always make people laugh. Along with his wife Heather he had a son named Seth. He was a friend to all. Grant was also a tissue/organ donor. Steve Botsford (brother in law) Is taking this very hard, due to the fact that he was with him. And it was is wifes (Holly) bike that Grant was riding. The funeral services were held on May 26 in Grafton. The service was great. Alot of there family, and friends showed up for it. We had a chance to talk about the ride we are planning to do for them. Everyone thinks it is great. Please see the new thread I made for the ride on June 25th.

 

Cold man.... real cold.

 

Whhhhhat? Wha'd I say

 

Chad, we met at the Winter Twister Ice Stunt Competition. I'm really sorry about the loss of your friend. Is everything in place for the 25th?

MiltownTiller posted a thread which was stickied over at SBN (sportbikes.net). Is there anything else that I can do to help...otherwise, I hope to meet up with you guys at State Fair park for the ride. Please keep us informed!
