BARF forum posts point to it being an unfortunate situation of a rider with a pre-existing health condition who succumbed to his ailments mid-ride. RIP.

Drove Mines today and the road is in excellent shape, very minimal gravel in only 2-3 corners. Overall very enjoyable!

Leggett to the ocean, 1, 3, 96, 36, 299 all west of 5.
70, 89 through Lassen, 49, in the Sierras and around Tahoe.

Look for the roads that aren't straight lines.
