Fritz Kling Benefit

It pains me to see one of the best people, both on and off the track, coping with tragedy. Fritz Kling is well known for riding Harley-Davidson's VR1000 AMA Superbike. He finished runner up in Formula USA and AMA Super Teams Championships in the mid-1990s alongside teammate Miguel Duhamel. After winning a battle with brain cancer in 1995, Kling has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. The racing world has all pulled together to help a fellow rider in need.

Kling has been unable to work due to the tumor affecting the left side of his body. Kling is also no longer able to drive. Surgery was performed May 21, 2007 to relieve pressure, but Fritz has been diagnosed as terminal.
