Fuck. He was a good dude and so impressive how he did the TC races I lent him some tools on hotpit at CMP and him and crew were super nice.
Circa 2006- couldnt have been prouder when (along with starnes and wilkey) LLOYD BAYLEY too took the novice ranks by storm... Nobody figured the black dude pulling the beat up, heavily taped gsxr 1000 on a homemade single bike open trailer with a Honda Accord was about to run 1.16s at Summit Point and deep up into the expert field of combined nov/exp races lol. Funny as hell, brutally honest, asshole/arrogant mf from new york... Dude definitely left his mark across wera/ccs paddocks and absolutely deserves Iron Butt recognition based on his success in those TC Races. RIP LB
Lloyd may you Rest In Power, Paradise... Such a gracious person and competitor who flat out loved racing. A racing purist by all definitions. I am honored to have had the privilege to spend quality time being in your presence and learning from you. Gonna miss you dearly Brother! Gone, yet never forgotten!
Rest In Peace Lloyd Met him at the GP in Austin, hanging around the Pramac hospitality. We talked a bit about racing, I told him about my novice regional LwT stuff and he was as humble as can be not bragging about his solo endurance stuff. Cool dude and a massive loss to the racing community.
Nooooooo! Seen him a bunch here in the midwest over the last few years with his dad. This is hard to swallow.
We've always had some great conversations, going to miss you my Brother! Prayers for the family and friends
Fuckin A! I talked with Lloyd a few times at a couple CCS rounds and he was a cool dude. My heart goes out to his family and friends. My condolences. RIP
Sad news - anyone that can do those Ironman races like Him has my utmost respect. Terrible loss. Shitty end to the year .
