    Our condolences to the Will family. It was great meeting her at the Ledges and Ashtabula rides where she piloted the springer like a pro. We always get a kick watching the vintage racing footage that Bridget & Whipper made into DVD's. A big thanks to her contributions in this world, and may they forever live on.

    Wow, this is very sad news and unexpected as I though I saw her post recently elsewhere. Bridget always brought enthusiasm, humor and wisdom to the hobby and racing. I'm glad I had to chance to visit in AZ and spend a little time on the track together.

    Bridget always had a smile and a hearty greeting for all she met. She was one of the truly wonderful people in the hobby and all of us will miss her greatly. She treated my boys like they were her own and I never worried about them hanging around the pits when Bridget was there. My heart goes out to Whipper and the rest of the family: I don't pretend to know the pain you're in but be assured all that knew Bridget share in your grief.

    Whipper and the Will's, myself and Lindsay are truly sorry for your loss.

    Meeting Bridget at Ledges and Pine Lake in 2009 was a great experience, she was enthusiastic about 6x6's and all out nice person to meet as she enlightened us of the years of the past racing and general riding you both have done together.
    While we can not take any grieving from you please be assured the community grieves with you as the 6x6 community is losing a family member as well.
    In remembrance

    Prayers for her "Mechanic",

    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.

    I met Bridget at the Ledges and knew her immediately from reading so many of her excellent posts. She was so friendly and such a great ambassador of our sport
    Bridget was truly a good person and we will miss and remember her fondly.

    I never met her but it was clear from her posts that 6x6'ing was her passion. My prayers go out for the family.
