Orangevale Memorial Ride

[WBill]

Hello from Az.

I really enjoyed the pictures and spirit of your ride, even though there was no way I was going to be able to join in.

I had a brief conversation and dinner with Andrew and some of the rest of you all a couple of years ago, just east of Boisie. You were on the way to Park City, UT, for some Feejer rally, and I was headed elsewhere, loner that I am. What I remember most about that meeting was how much stuff some of you guys have mounted to your bikes! Someone remarked, upon seeing my '05, that he'd not seen a stocker in a long time. (Well, I did have a Throttlemeister on it, by then.)

I hope its not too late to express my dismay and sorrow over Andrew's passing. From what I can gather, it happened long before I logged in here for the first time, and that first time was a delayed response to the encouragement of OrangeVale, hisself.

Peace, WBill

That was a great little ride Mike, thanks a bunch for being the Pied Piper of FJR's.

My only real post worthy photo of the whole gang (minus those in the can or out of frame :blink: )

The only problem with so many riders is so little time to visit with everyone.

No, it's not, and thank you.

Sadly, Andrew passed November 10, 2007.

Did everyone notice that Terri (Mrs. FJRob) WASN"T on the phone in uberkul's picture? :yahoo:

[SIZE=8pt]She'd be the demure young lady sitting next to that unidentified fellow wering a red shirt and hat. She is REALLY going after those ribs! I'll bet the rule is: "Don't you dare call mom during lunch...or else! And don't make me come home early....."[/SIZE]

LOL, that would be me, stressing over ripping the zipper outta my brand new can't afford it gear! (It got fixed)

Great pix Uber.. and who is that really old ugly guy sitting left of the cell phone queen? :yahoo:

 

[Old Michael]

Gosh, and I thought UberKul was standing on that chair as punishment for passing gas at the main table.

Great pic Brad.

(And though the ribs looked good, I couldn't resist the "Sausage of the Day" sandwich. I'll never be the same.)

And I'm sure those around you never will be either.

Do you think you can bait me like this and get away with it.

"Gee what a big sausage you have, OM"

"Did you eat the whole thing?"

Sounds like a great day of riding for a good cause. Wish I could have been there instead of here with the cold and snow. Riding is now but a distint dream for next spring.

HYCLE what about "Are you sure you will be able to fit all that in?"
