Saddened to hear of the passing of our friend Randy Scott.
He was one of the very best!
RIP
We lost our friend Randy Scott last week. He passed away suddenly at his home in Sugar Grove, IL at 67 — and the shock is still settling in for many of us.
I met Randy though my uncle, and he took me to some of my first CABDA shows when I was a kid.
If you’ve spent any time in the Illinois cycling scene, you knew Randy. He raced for years with the Pepsi Cycling Team, was an Illinois State Time Trial Champion, and competed at Nationals. Track, road, time trials — he did it all. And he kept riding.
Randy worked for Sigma USA for 11 years and helped out with our very first show in 2015. When we were just trying to get it off the ground, he showed up and believed in it.
Over the years he became a fixture at the show — walking the aisles, reconnecting with old friends, and talking bikes like he always did. He was part of the fabric of the place.
My heart goes out to Cathy and the entire Scott family. If you knew Randy, take a ride this week and push a little harder into the wind for him.
We’ll miss you, Randy. RIP
