Friends,

I regret to inform you that David Meek, our good friend and former CBC
president, was killed this morning in an accident while riding to work on
Ashland Terrace. You can read the details at the following links:

David was a great cyclist in his own right, but he was always willing to
offer advice and assistance to others. He helped the club in so many ways
I can't possibly list them all. He was passionate about cycling and making
the club the best it could be. We lost a great friend today.

We will forward information on visitation and funeral arrangements as soon
as possible.

Please keep David's family in your thoughts and prayers.

Troy
