Ride in Peace Droopy. Satan's Slave,Rick,aka Droopy died two years ago today, leaving a legacy few could contend with. The Knuckle he rode for over 50yrs inspired so many and the stories he left behind will continue to amaze generations to come. A man amongst men.


 
I first came across a photo of his Knuckle in Easyriders magazine about 27yrs ago and have loved it ever since,it just reeks of class.
