Tasha















We lost a friend yesterday in an accident during a track day.  Tasha has been a big part of the motorcycle community as I know it,  and will be greatly missed.  I am happy that I got to meet her and wish I could know her better.  My love and prayers for Fuji and the rest of Tasha's friends and family.

 

A beautiful tribute from one of her friends on FB:

The only picture I could catch of her during our GR Georgia trip, because I couldn't keep up with her!  She was an amazing rider and an amazing person.
Memorial Page
There is  a link to a donation page to help with expenses for all Natasha Louis memorial and benefit services. "ALL THOSE WHO MAKE A DONATION WILL RECEIVE ONE FREE STICKER. An additional sticker will be delivered for each additional $20 donation. Example: $40 equals two stickers and $60 gets three stickers. By making this donation, you the person making the Donation understand the funds are being paid to Fugi to help offset any expenses for Natasha Louis' benefit and/or Memorial Service. There is no representation of warranty or refunds. We THANK YOU for your personal help in this manner."

Omg! I rode that bike at Daytona and I loved it! That is the only supersport I have ridden (that specific year and model) that I love well enough to replace my GSXRs.

Good Luck Nancy, let us know how it goes!

So I just ordered the flowers, called a shop local to New Jersey Motorsports where they are having the service.  They are going to make it real nice with big orange Gerber Daisys and some small pink flowers, real colorful and pretty.  

Sounds like the celebration they are going to have for Tasha is going to be real nice, I wish I could be there, but hopefully the flowers bring a little bit of sunshine for the family.   

I didn't know what to put on the card, I just put "For Tasha, from GirlRiders"   Not very creative, but I went blank for a second.

That sounds perfect Katie. Dont worry about the card. Its hard to come up with something profound when you are trying to get something done like that. And the flowers themselves will send the real message.

Good luck Nancy!!
