    This week is Hell

    A friend of mine passed away this sunday while out on his four wheeler. This wasnt a guy that i hung out with all the time, in fact its been several months since we hung out. I rode with him, on the quads, whenever we were out at our favorite pit.

    Regretfully, this pit took his life. Jared went over a large jump, one he knows like the back of his hand, on a quad that is too large and heavy for that type of use, and is not designed that way.

    He became entrapped under the more than 400 pound machine and suffered severe internal injuries, to later pass away in the hospital.

    He was 15, and he was a great kid. I dont believe in god, but i am going to be praying tonight, and any who would add him and his family to your prayers, i would appreciate it.

    RIP Jareth L Delvecchio, may you smile on us from heaven.
