I cross posted this on the SMB site, hopefully this is the right place to put this here.
So, shortly after we lost Ramsey from Agile off road, there was talk of a memorial at his favorite bluff top camp site just South of San Felipe A few weeks later, there was a memorial in San Diego, that I couldn’t make, but from all the photos it was well attended.Robb brought me back a really nice memorial sticker someone made up too, thanks to whoever made it. Anyway, I thought it would be great to be able to get together with a group of Ramsey’s friends at the beach and honor the man who meant so much to so many.So, here’s what I came up with,The Baja 1000 is in November, which is still far enough away that folks can plan some vacation time.We can have the memorial a couple days before the race, then go find a great place to sit and watch 1000hp trophy trucks sail off jumps and over our heads. (Well, I don’t get quite that close, but Robb on the other hand has some amazing photos) I’ve talked to John at Agile, and Robb (who I think may have had the original idea back when) and they are both in 100%.So, if you’re interested in joining us, make your plans now.Then there is the issue of the memorial itself.The current vision is something metal, probably set in cement, on top of the bluff where we camped so many times with Ramsey.Anyone with ideas, please speak up, artwork would be even better. Perhaps we could have a design CNC cut out of some plate.Glen can fabricate anything we come with, but remember it has to be carried there, so it can’t be too big. I’ll get in contact with Jan too to see what ideas she may have. So, I don’t know the exact date of the 1000 yet, (anyone?) but I’m looking forward to another Baja trip with great friends.See ya there?
