Ricky Cottrell

So sad to say that we lost a great friend and member of the Gear Grinders today. Ricky Cottrell passed away this morning after losing the battle to mesothelioma. He was building a bike to race at El Mirage and the Salt Flats but the illness kept him from completing his build. God speed Ricky, you will truly be missed.
