Its never a good thing when a rider passes away. But it is always great to see so many riders come together in helps with a mourning family when their son comes to pass. This past Sunday in Ontario California riders from all over Southern California came together to celebrate the life of Lloyd “Truth” Parker. Born Feb 14th 1985 Lloyd was loved and respected by so many. As we stood there in the parking lot listening to his father describe Lloyd in his own words, you could feel the pain and the love his father was going thru. He passed doing what EVERYONE does without thinking twice… exiting an offramp to a freeway confident that it was a safe exit. But it just so happens that this offramp is marked incorrectly. This isnt the first incident where a car, truck or motorcycle is exiting and gets into an accident with another vehicle entering the freeway on the same ramp. Unfortunately for Lloyd, he didnt stand a chance exiting on his motorcycle and the motorist was entering.
Lloyd past away on 4-19-12
His father insists on putting every last penny he has into making sure nobody will ever get hurt again where his son passed. It painful enough being a father and seeing your kids get hurt, I cant imagine what kind of pain he is going thru.
So this past sunday many of us got together…and rode in celebration of his life. here are a few pictures of the ride
Its unfortunate when anyone goes down. But its very likely with the amount of bikes attending these stunt rides that there will be overcrowding and some riders who aren’t as experienced as others. Its not known exactly what caused the rider to go down, if he was cut off or just simply lost control, but we hope that both riders are ok and have a quick recovery

Ever met someone that a little uncoordinated. Maybe someone that seems to always have their equilibrium off? A little “i feel bad for him” or “there he goes again”. Well we have someone close to us who’s got it all. A huge heart, always helping out his fellow rider. Loves to ride loves to stunt. But sometimes when he does either one, he manages to throw himself off balance. His name is Goofy, because of his lightheartedness and his goofy composure. When he gets on his bike, you worry and fear for his safety. i mean the boy went down just exiting an onramp. In this short clip, we were out at the stunt spot… and out of no where, goofy pops in. lol we love you goof. thank you for always being there for us when we need you, and thank you for the laughs. lol
so check it out… Street Life as well as lot of other southern california bike clubs, solo riders, and friends got together december 31st and decided to hit the streets and highways for a nice stunt ride.
