BMW CCA Marks Dan Erwin's Death


I was in Atlanta last weekend for Dan's funeral, and it was exactly what I'd hoped - the best of times by benefit of the worst occasion. The service was a celebration of an amazing life, and I'm really glad I went. It inspires me to look at life as a long road that doesn't have to narrow or slow before it ends.

I got to drive my friends Alpina B10 BiTurbo down and back - what a treat! An amazing piece of automotive fun in beautiful condition, and it was extreme generosity to get the chance for the seat time.

Anyway, the BMW CCA published some tributes to Dan (including mine), though I wish they'd keep them pinned to the top...
