To all of you who have not yet been informed, we have lost our Brother last night. Kristoffer Raifsnider, Monteboy03, has passed away from injuries he sustained from a motorcycle accident last night. The Monte Carlo Forum Family has suffered a tragic loss of one of it's most influential Brothers. You are truly missed, Bro. Still doesn't feel real that you're gone.

It's never a nice day when you hear news like this.

On behalf of all the staff at MonteCarloForum.com, and Internet Brands Automotive, I offer my deepest condolences to the family and friends of our Monte Carlo brother Kristoffer Raifsnider "Monteboy03". Kristoffer will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him.

I don't know all the details of Kris' accident. But I think it's important to remember that motorcycle riders don't have safety cages, crumple zones, and airbags when they're out there on the road! And leathers and a helmet are no match against the impact with a car or truck.

Please be aware of this when you're sharing the road with a motorcycle. There is no reset button or do-overs in life. Saying you're sorry doesn't bring the person back.

Please drive safely and responsibly.

Kris's death will be a reminder to me when I get the urge to open up the Monte on a city street.

I agree it's sad that this happened, but lets not go blaming other drivers here.

here's the article.

People make mistakes sometimes, as it seems he did.
This was not another drivers fault.
