Default Fallen Rider: Natasha Louis

Some of you guys may or may not know her. Natasha was a member of Absolute Trackdays and recently started coaching.

Unfortunately she lost her life this past weekend down at Jennings. News of this has spread pretty quickly through alot of the forums and there are funeral costs that the whole sport is collectively trying to help with.

Yes, I saw this as well.

She is from South Africa where her mother lives, so they are trying to get her back home.



The picture is ironic, because she lost the front and was hit by another rider, if my information is correct.
