copemech Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) It is with great regret that I announce the passing of Allen Guyot from KS. age 53. Allen was a personal friend of mine from the trials scene, and a great guy that held much history in both national and regional levels dating back to the 80's as best I figure, possibly beyond, yet far beyond my time in the trials game. A very skillfull rider whom often dominated events ! Such a great fellow rider and promotor of trials! Reports are that he passed in his sleep prior to the event in OK last weekend. He will be missed by many, my comments are but a pittance! Gods Speed Allen! I will miss you! Edited May 4, 2010 by copemech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My deepest condolences to his family.Steve It was a big shock to all of us. I talked with Allen when he got to the event Friday afternoon and he was in his usual good humor and really looking forward to riding, as he always was. Whenever I saw Allen pull up to an event, the Ute Cup, an AVTA club Trial, the CRTC series or any Trial, I always had the feeling that the event is now going to be just a little bit better than it otherwise would be, and that feeling was never wrong. He made a positive contribution to my life and his presence will be missed. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
