It is with much sadness and a heavy, heavy heart that I report the passing of Gene Strickland. Co - owner of Stricks Cycle and one of the most helpful motorcycle mechanics I have ever known. I learned a great deal from him. My heart aches for his wife, Mary Strickland. Godspeed Gene you will be missed by all who were lucky enough to have met you.

RIP Gene, a true AVL/WNC legend in the motorcycle community.

Please help us to give Mary - the walking encyclopedia of motorcycle parts -  a bit of much needed relief for the coming month.
