Tony Pascarelli aka Road Rocket and Rough Edge Racing died yesterday morning. A brilliant motorcycle builder, great friend and the consummate curmudgeon. A picture of his old shop and a couple of his land speed record bikes. I own his old MotoGuzzi and Ducati. Rough Edge Racing held several land speed records including one on the Guzzi. The double engine bike recorded over 140mph at Loring Maine.

I was just thinking about him yesterday. It's been nearly a year since I last worked on the Pantah I bought from him. Sorry to hear of his passing.

Such sad news.

I hope he's setting records and racing the clouds!

My condolences to friends and family. I only knew him from reading his posts here, but seemed like a good guy

I'll pass on the condolences. Tony's advice online and in person was honest and researched, either by experience or a lot of digging for the facts. I was fortunate to have been involved in his projects and he in mine. As many of you know he was a welcome addition to the board. Antietam, he was pleased the Pantah went a good home.

Man, this is sad to hear. I never met Tony in person but he and I exchanged quite a bit of information over the past 5 or so years, mainly about Triumphs. My condolences to his family.
