DAYTON — Barbecue grills were fired Friday, Aug. 14, as members of about a dozen bike clubs and their families spread out on a sunny summer evening, some relaxing in folding chairs, to remember Earl “Big Dawg” Grant, a vice president of the Young Blood Motorcycle Club.
The grassy lot at West Third Street and Bish Avenue buzzed with high-power motorcycles and talk of a lost compatriot, killed Thursday night in a fiery crash on West Third Street.
The 40-year-old Dayton resident, a maintenance employee at Community Golf Course and car stereo installer, died when he was thrown from his bike into a metal RTA pole as he and a Pontiac Catalina were headed east. Grant’s bike clipped the front bumper of the sedan as he tried to pass and change lanes, Dayton police Lt. Brian Johns said Thursday night.
