A friend of mine, Bob from Wilmington always would ride to to Smaltz's because he liked him so much. He told me last nite about Stretch and was telling me stories how if you ever rode with him you better be ready allow alot of time because of he loved to talk to everyone. He didn't care who you were he loved to talk. Bob just bought a bike an 08 Ultra from him two months ago and I had looked forward to meeting him. Sounded like a hell of a guy! RIP. He'll be missed by many friends.

I work less than a half mile from Smaltz's HD. This is an email that was forwarded to all employees where I work. The fact that Strech was mentioned by name in the traffic bulletin shows how much respect this area has for him.
Wednesday, April 23, 2008 Posted on Wed, Apr 23, 2008 Large funeral procession riding though county Police news A large funeral procession passing through the county this afternoon may create traffic issues for local drivers. The procession is for William J. “Stretch†Smaltz, the owner of the Harley-Davidson shop in Eagle, who died on Friday. The procession will be passing through Chester County, including Uwchlan, and into Montgomery County between noon and 3 p.m., according to Uwchlan police. More than 5,000 motorcycles will be in the procession, police said. That means traffic will be “extremely congested†and drivers at the intersections of the processions may be stopped for an hour or more, police said. The procession will be: North Route 82 to Route 322 East to Route 30 East Bypass to Route 113 North to Route 100 North to Route 422 East to Egypt Road, left onto Parke Road to Route 363 to Route 73. Police are asking drivers to avoid the area at that time.
