No stories. Just sorry for your loss, heart goes out to you and his family.

I just moved to D’go a few months ago. Know his ex father- in- law, who called to let me know what happened. I first saw & met Ben out on the nordic ski trails. So I know him as a nordic skier, who happens to be a pro mtn biker. Ben was a killer on the skate skis, just perfect technique. He’d crunch that lanky body into this tight arrow, and just be a blur on the descents. And then float up the next hill.
I talked to him maybe a week ago. He said he had just gotten back from his early season European races & was really pleased with how it went. Was in a really bouncy, positive mood, and even though he admitted to being jet- lagged, he still went out for a short ski to get some training in.

He was a star. I am so sorry you have to deal with this heartbreaking news. You were lucky to have him in your life and be able to call him a friend.

Just heard about this and came here to post. So sad.
