Bike Gallery Team member dies in bike accident


Dear fellow OBRA racers,

Yesterday afternoon,
Bike
Gallery
team rider and co-worker Brett
Jarolimek was killed in a collision with a truck while riding his
bike
on N Interstate and Greeley.

The news of his death comes as a terrible blow to all of us at the
Bike Gallery and probably to all of you who knew Brett or saw him
recently in action at the cross races. Just this last Sunday, Brett
rode one of his best races ever, finishing on the podium in the
Singlespeed cyclocross race at Rainier HS.

For most of us, words are falling short to express the deep sadness
caused by the sudden loss of a great friend and a wonderful human
being. Our deepest sympathy and heartfelt prayers go out to his
family, his girlfriend, his close friends, and to everyone who knew
Brett as a great guy and an awesome bike racer.

We miss you Brett...

your Bike Gallery team mates and co-workers
