sorry I missed it everyone.  I didn't get back from my vacation until the 10th and I didn't see the tragic news until tonight. 

It's always difficult to hear about a fellow rider's death.  I can't help but question my own devotion to riding when it's a familiar 'face'

Musical Tribute

Since Ceekie wasn't able to catch the sound portion of the memorial at Four Corners, he created a musical memorial. 

I havent been on in a while, but I was so happy to see these posts when I came on today. Its been SO hard without my Rich. LIfe just isnt the same .

I love the memorial ride pictures, what a wonderful thing to do. I know Rich is looking down on us with his own comments! I just want to thank you all!

Hey everybody. I was just wondering if I could put some of these pictures in my slideshow that I'm creating for Rich based on the rides taking place and some other stuff.

Please let me know It'd be great to use these pictures!

you got my permission

Ooops....I missed this one! Use any pics ya' want! 

Ditto.

Thanks you guys! 

I will be posting the slideshow up as soon as it's done.

Hopefully I can get to working on it sometime this week, busy busy!

The DVD is done for Gator

I was just thinking about Rich this afternoon.  I didn't know him really at all, but I miss the guy and feel for his friends and family.  No one has forgotten, bud!

Thank you so much for the Kind words about Rich we miss him everyday  thats why there now a dvd with the Gstwins rides and his pictures of his life  done

As soon as I get the DVD, there will be a showing at my house.  It will have to be on an evening that has good weather so everybody can park their bikes, since I don't have a lot of parking room.

The livingroom is more than large enough for 5 on the couches, 2 comfy chairs, and then we still have room enough for 4-6 chairs, and one or two on the carpet.  It is a projector, so the screen will be more than big enough (almost the entire wall).

Or, we can wait til 7-2-07, but I'd rather ride then...or both, hmm...evening ride, diner at St. John's (great burgers! And, other food) on Lawrence, and then the showing.

Unless, you don't want to see me cry, again.

I have my DVD, scratch's DVD, and TaZz sent me extras to give to other B.A.G.S. folks the next time we meet up  (and the post office finally  unlost the package!) There won't be a dry eye in the house.  It's a wonderful tribute to Phaedrus

I vote for doing it all: watching the video sooner and then doing the anniversary ride. We can always watch the video earlier, do the anniversary ride, and watch the video again after the anniversary ride (but that, of course, would depend on Mrs. scratch and how much of us is too much ). She'd be a sweetheart to put up with all of us even once.

I'm up for whatever everyone else is up for.
