Indian Larry, a master motorcycle mechanic and
stunt man, passed away this morning following an accident while performing
Saturday at the Liquid Steel Classic and Custom Bike Series show at
Cabarrus Arena and Events Center in Concord.
"He was riding and standing up on his seat.
The bike started to wobble and he was not able to regain control."
Indian Larry fell off the bike before a crowd
of about 8,000. Paramedics were standing by and aided him until
he could be airlifted to CMC
"Indian Larry was a man with great skill
and talent as a mechanic and metal sculptor. He will be truly missed
by his fans throughout the nation."
He mystified us all with his unique sense
of style. He stayed true to his roots as he let his passion guide
him. We all hope we can be as lucky as Larry was. He died doing
what he loved. He died with thousands of people missing him. He
died with a good name that will forever stay in our hearts. I know
Larry has rode back to heaven. Ride free, Brother. We all will be
missing you.
