Prior, he had worked in tree cutting and tree removal on his own. Tyler’s passion for bikes started young, growing up he loved BMXing. He was a motorcycle race enthusiast to say the least; he lived to go to the track! He raced at tracks all over the country, his favorite was Palmer Motorsports Park in Palmer, MA. Tyler loved his race family at Evolve GT Track Days and was so proud to recently receive a certificate for Advance Pump. Tyler enjoyed having the support of his race partner and best friend, Rachel Yoder, on and off the track, they were always working on their bikes together. He was a glass-half-full kind of guy; he could always see the silver lining even in the worst circumstances. He hugged everyone, even if you didn’t want to be hugged. Tyler was an artist, designing his own line of pendants and jewelry called Apex Creations. He loved his family and was the best brother, he was fun and protective.
