Our cycling community has lost another of its greats with the passing of
Bill High this week after a prolonged battle with bladder cancer at the age
of 90. Bill, the founder and owner of Concrete Systems and former president
and sponsor of Rio Grande Racing Team, was very active in the cycling
community for over 30 years.  He organized and promoted the Double Eagle
Time Trial Series from the 1980s into the 2000s  and was involved in the
organization of Record Challenge TT and multiple state championship TTs.
Through his infinite generosity, for decades he provided his Concrete System
warehouse for  very popular  off season stationary training sessions. Bill
was a competitive cyclist into his 80s when a hip fracture sidelined him
from further competition, but  he still remained an active advocate for the
sport.

Services for William High will be held this Saturday at 10:30 at St. Johns
United Methodist Church 2626 Arizona St NE.  In lieu of flowers, donations
may be given in William's honor to Concrete Systems, Inc, Po Box 3625,
Albuquerque, NM 87190.  All donations will go to bicycle safety education.

 

Pedal on Bill
