Court, I just had to post a formal thank you to all responsible for starting and maintaining such a fantastic site. The kindness I have experienced here is unmatched. I believe you are aware of the current "gear drive" that is happening on XBoard...just one of the MANY great things I have seen transpire in my short time here. Not to sound corny, but after I watched the movie "Pay it Forward", I started thinking about the snowball effect one good deed had brought about based on paying forward to the next person rather than paying it back, that however was followed by..."that kind of thing only happens in movies". In the 8 mos. I have been a member here I have witnessed this mentality more times than I can count. I've seen parts, service, info, advice, support all given for no other reason than our common love for motorcycling(Buell's to be specific). All of these actions seem to follow the pay it forward idea. Just wanted to tell you that BadWeb has encouraged me to apply this thinking, more than ever, to my daily life (it really does work). The fantastic people associated with BadWeb are what make it so special, and I'm fortunate to be able to be part of something so great. |

Ridrx - well put. Sounds like this Pay It Forward started sometime ago without anyone knowing about it until this little trade off of parts and gear started earlier this week. BadWeb is a great place to be and has some of the greatest people that participate. Where else can you ask such a favor of someone you only know on-line? Try to get to Homecoming, March Badness or Buelltoberfest to meet some of these great people in person!

Buelltoberfest is on my calendar already, looking forward to meeting some of these great people in the flesh. I could kick myself(hard!) for missing MBIV as I live just west of Atl. I won't make the same mistake twice. |
