Here are a couple more ideas for renaming NAFO, if we decide to do that... 4. TIMBO (Tim's International Meeting of Bike Owners) 5. TIM (a little more short and sweet - Tim's International Meet)

All, A few thoughts have occurred to me, repeatedly, over the weekend. I feel a need for some sort of gesture on behalf of the Forum, itself, for Tim Bates. Here are a few thoughts, none of which I have any particular attachment to, but which I reveal to get the ball rolling. 1. Retire Tim's...

It's the first one, Don. It's the first one. Who could have known how incredibly poignant that image would become? Oh well, may as well start just about any Monday with tears. With love, FYYFFs!

That's a nice read, Frankenburleigh.

Ahaha. Very good. I like it. ...By the way - excellent driving out there on the track. Nice to have met you at NAFO. I'll remember Tim as having been absolutely giddy at that track that night. Everyone was having a fantastic time - he, especially so.

Somehow, Tim Bates (TWN) and Mark Knopfler often reminded me of each other. Today is a day to listen to one and think about the other. Peace. Mark Knopfler vid on YouTube

Today is the first day of a semi-eternity in which the Forum will never be the same. This is an unspeakable loss. Tears for you, Tim. Love,

Hey Mike, I almost had the opportunity to meet you in Berkeley, courtesy of J.B. Then, I almost got to break bread with you at NAFO. I'm really glad I'll get another shot at getting to know you. Heal up, Bro. Oh, and I'll be in the Bay Area on the weekend of 10/3/08, as well as 10/10/08...

This track is WAY too damn close to the airport!

YES!!! Man, that was annoying. FF to 3:19 and then throw your computer out the window.

In addition to what everyone has already said about spending some time riding with her, I'd also plan some serious bench time in a cage. Perhaps more important than her skills controlling her bike are her situational awareness and common sense in traffic. By actively observing and questioning...

I personally know three people (three different homes) in Baltimore who have stories of either being "out front" or "out back" gardening while the opposite door was closed but not locked. Guess what happened? That's right!!! Baltimore: it's balls out!

Wishing you were here; knowing you wish it more.

Two, in particular, come to mind. SkooterG's record for mileage over 24 hours, and Warchild's week of BBGs last year. I only ever fully documented one ride to the standard of the IBA. I took all the receipts, the route map, the witness signatures, sealed them in a manilla envelope, and threw...

Ya think?

Hahahahahaha!!!! Thanks for that!

A friend at work is throwing a bachelorette party for a 20-something and ages up to 60-something will be in attendance. She's worried about gifts and "things to do" that might be inappropriate. I told her - fear not, I know a group that's expert on inappropriate. That would be you guys. What...

Ooooh!!!!! A thong with tools!!!!!!

The first most common crash scenario for a motorcyclist? Overcooking a turn, going for the brakes, standing up the bike, and going off-line beyond the outside of the road surface, or into a previously occupied segment of the on-coming lane. The second most common crash scenario for a...
