Press release from the CHP:

On 07-19-2020, just before noon, the CHP Humboldt Communications Center was notified of a solo motorcycle crash on northbound US-101 just north of Jordan Road. A preliminary investigation by Officers determined that 70 year old Michael [Tully] of Eureka, for unknown reasons, was unable to maintain control of the motorcycle and was ejected, suffering major injuries. There were no other vehicles or persons involved in the crash. Mr. Tulley was conscious and alert at the scene, and was subsequently transported by emergency medical personnel to St. Joseph Hospital for treatment of his injuries. However, CHP Officers later responded to St. Joseph’s Hospital for follow-up with Mr. Tulley and were notified that he had passed away as a result of his injuries.

Alcohol and/or drugs are not considered to have been a factor in this collision.

The CHP Humboldt Area Office is continuing to investigate this collision and asks anyone with information to contact the Humboldt Area CHP Office at 707-822-5981 or send an email to [email protected].

Beyond sadness, please excuse my spelling of Mr. Tully’s name. I took it from the article. I am very sad that you lost your dad. I pray God will give you the love and courage to get you all through this most difficult time.

My brother truly was amazing and compassionate. I’m honored to have made his acquaintance and will always remember his understanding, trust, respect, and acceptance of himself as well as to share that in the time we spent talking, sharing a meal, and visiting when I could with his fam. Ride on mi amigo!

I worked with Mr Tully on a few projects and connected with him at county meetings over the years. He was dedicated to his work with integrity. It was an honor to work wih such a man.
He also had a fun streak and knew how to make people comfortable.
Ride free Mike Tully.

This is heartbreaking.
Mike was one of the nicest and most honorable people I have ever had the pleasure to know.
I met him through motorcycling, and we were HOG family.
May You Fly Free With The Angels Now, Mikey.
May his memory be for a blessing to Joann and all his family and friends.
My Sincere Prayers and Condolences,
Phylis Geller

Thinking of Mike. Always a smile when he greeted me. A mellow guy. Fun to kid around with. Shared many a Montebello party with him and the guys. All my love and heartfelt condolences to the Tully family and his friends.

Shocked and saddened to here about Mike. We grew up together and went to grammar school and high school together. We played sports together and had a blast as kids in Monterey Park. He was one of the nicest guys and sterling friend a person could have. My condolences to the family and Rest In Peace, Mike.
