On June 29Th of 2013 at 4:30 pm We all lost a Brother of the Road, William P. Olson (Pete). Pete lost his fight with cancer of 12 years. He is the Man that got me involved with the Cannon Run and I know he enjoyed the ride every year. I will miss Him and I know when I am out on the road He will be with Me. Pete was also a Navy Vet of the Vietnam Area, A husband, father, grandpa and great grandpa and a great friend that would do anything he could do for you. Attachments:

Another Biker Down
by Bill "uglicoyote" Davis
I'm sorry friends that I can't be with you to celebrate today
If you're all gathered round and reading this, I've probably passed away
But if I were there I'd tell you not to shed a tear or frown
I'd tell you just to simply say, another Biker has gone down
If I were there I'd tell you that I had a wonderful life
That I loved my kids and family and especially my wife
I loved all my drinking buddies and all my life-long friends
I'd raise a toast to all of you, "May your party never end"
If I were there I'd tell you how I loved the the small blue highways
How I loved the curving mountain roads, loved to ride the back-road byways
And how I loved it "in the wind", loved it when that engine rumbled,
and the biker friends who rode with me and would help me when I stumbled
You are amongst my dearest friends, brothers and sisters of the road,
We've traveled many miles together, shared many heavy loads
If I could be there, we'd laugh and share the memories from our past,
and this gathering would be just one more tale, another story, not our last
But today I can't be with you, except in your hearts and memory stores
So you'll have to laugh, lift a glass to me, then let your engines roar
Please smile and do not shed a tear, wipe away that silly frown
I'm off upon that final ride, another Biker who has gone down
2007 Bill "uglicoyote" Davis

it was a pleasure to meet you, visit with you, walk back to your camp with you Friday night, and have a drink of wine. Pete has a good women in you ~ he is looking down on you and with you every day!
