When I logged on and read this, my heart dropped. Because I knew Jake personally? No. Did I even know him as a rider? Sadly, the answer remains no. But I don't think I have to have known him, or anyone else in this sport to know that this is one of the saddest moments I've had to come across in the sport of Scootering.
A lot of riders lose sight sometimes of what we're all doing, and how we are all together in this sport. We are pushing this sport to what it is as a collective effort that we all do our part in. We should respect and appreciate every rider for getting out on their scooters everyday and riding. And now we need to respect and acknowledge that we just lost one of those riders.
To Jake, and his friends, and his family, I will have you all in my thoughts and prayers and I hope that you all make it through this tough time.
