Blackbelt, Got your message, I will not be coming! I am trying to get my recently aquired 1999 Softail Night Train up and running. I am also working a ton of over time to off set my last trip down south. I tell you what I am seriously considering moving. The roads are awsome, people are friendly, jobs pay more than here, houses are cheaper, and the economy is doing well. |

You asked for it to be whipped out SPEEDY, pics from about 4 years ago. And yes that's you on the far left if you can remember back that far. I'm in the middle unfortunately.

Got back from Mexico today and had all kinds of goodies waiting for me. Got the bike ready for the track this weekend. Got a new Twobros pipe and race filter and uploaded a new tune. Got some new leathers too.

Damn Speedy, you're becoming a regular track ho. Are you going to Gratten this weekend? There will be a bunch of DSB folks there too. The bike is lookin great. Have fun and be safe this weekend. Wish I could have made it. Too much with work, school, and other crap to make it. |

Speedy thats a whole lotta toys you got goin on over there. I also am glad to see someone as anal as me about MY garage and tools. Nice new ride too by the way. BTW where ever the hell you work...are they hiring? |

I'm doing a NESBA event at Gingerman this weekend. Grattan is STT, also this weekend. I'm doing Grattan on October 20th, again with NESBA. Anybody else want to go? Its only $95 (plus one year membership). I'll drive. Clutchless, I don't have half the stuff I want in my garage, just enough to get by. Work? What's that? BTW I sent the Astars suit back today. Didn't fit. Kept the Joe Rocket. If anybody wants leathers or any other accessory, I've got a guy that will beat any price out there. (Message edited by toledospeedyiii on September 21, 2007) |

The Hooters here in Flint is filled up by 8:00 on UFC night, so that's out of the question. |

Hello everyone. Well i finally got home about an hour ago. I won't bore you with all the details but i have 4 or 5 broken/crushed rib's and a punctured lung,a problem with my right shoulder and some minor things not worth mentioning at this time. I go Monday to see my Doctor and go from there. All i can say about the crash was i allowed myself to look away from the switch back turns for a second and thats when i got my self into looking at where i didn't want to go but ended up going. I still have a lot of pain and some fluid on my lung but at least i'am still alive. I'll update as i find out more. |

Toledospeedyiii. So which bike were you riding?The bad part about hurting your ribs is it hurts just to breath. I know that this will slow my old ass down. |

I just want to take time to thank Brad [Hardcorps]for taking care of everything from talking to the Park Ranger/Police who took the report to going back and picking up my bike. Brad your a real stand up guy. Hopefully the next time i'll be able to keep the bike up on 2 wheels. |

Don, glad you made it back. Get better and keep us updated on how you're doing. Jim, I told you not to ride after watching the MotoGP race. Those guys are better than you. What happened? |

Watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUNxfckMWQs Its at the very end...You tell me what went wrong. Video is about 4 mins long, so just ff to the end to see the crash...Or watch the whole thing if u wish. That was the middle of the day, I got the bike back in order and didn't miss a session... You're right Don, it hurts to breath....I'm living on steroids and vicodin right now. I can't imagine what ur going through. |

Love the reaction from the fall. That was classic. A little too much front break going into the corner? |
