Memorial to Eddie Diaz - A Trail Champion


It’s hard to think of words to describe
the loss to the motorcycle community
of a great friend and champion. Eddie
Diaz recently passed away at the
much-to-young age of 51. I knew
“Fast Eddie” from his service at
AMA Dist. 36 and the Richmond
Ramblers Motorcycle Club. Eddie
was also a passionate supporter
of trail access and the
BlueRibbon Coalition.

He fought for what he believed in
and was instrumental in the continuing functionality of the Dist. 36 Legislative
Action Office.

In honor of that fighting spirit, the Eddie Diaz Family has set up the Eddie
Diaz Memorial Legal Fund at the BlueRibbon Coalition. Funds donated
will go directly to Legal efforts within the boundaries of AMA Dist. 36.

There will be a memorial service today to celebrate and remember his life. It will
be @ 1:00pm today at the Richmond Rambler Club House, 818 Dornan Dr, Point Richmond, CA. For further information, go to http://www.rrmc.cc/

I hope to see many of you there.

Godspeed Eddie – you are missed!

The General
