TULSA, Okla. — A memorial bike and car show was held Friday in honor of 18-year-old motorcyclist Sidney Fuller, who died following a motorcycle accident earlier this month.
According to Tulsa Police, Fuller was critically injured on May 13 when a driver made a sudden U-turn from the right lane near 61st Street and Memorial Avenue, causing her to crash into the vehicle. She passed away on May 21 after being hospitalized.
Friends of Fuller organized the event to commemorate her life and support others dealing with loss. Kaiden Crawford, Austin Torrie, and Jacob Hilton distributed yellow bandanas at the gathering, which symbolize fallen riders in the biker community.
Torrie stated, “In the biker community, when somebody goes down and unfortunately passes, we use that bandana to symbolize them and pick a color; for Sidney, it’s yellow.”
Fuller’s mother has requested that attendees refrain from financial donations; instead, she suggested contributions in Sidney’s name to The Ministry Center, where Fuller volunteered. Donations can be made online or through needed item listings available on their website.
