WAY COOL SITE JB2 and son! Really dig the site design, layout and your photos. First rate stuff all the way! Good luck and Godspeed amigo!

I had no idea you were so darn talented. : )

How long you been working on that endeavor?

JB3 has been hanging the site for about three weeks, getting the style sheet laid out, making my stuff work in a cyber-environment. Lot of details to make it all work in the many browsers out there. Lots of tweaking and re-doing but I think it's going our way now. We're taking a few days off to recharge the batteries.

Big thanks to Henrik, Dino and Capt. Pete for helping us critique the pages as they were developed. The extra eyes and points of view are a big help.

Thanks Blake for giving me the nod... I came here to make an announcement and you beat me to it. : ) Thanks again.

Ride Safe, JB2

JB2, I love it! What a great idea!! I have 3 LARGE boxes of pictures that I have taken over the years, and am in Nova Scotia on an offsite work assignment till Christmas. I brought those pictures with me to figure out some better way to display them.

My pictures though aren't near as interesting as yours, though I think we and a bunch of other riders as you say, share that common creative drive.

It's all in the beauty and freedom found on the ride and you've captured it over and over again in your photos.

Awesome job!

Ray, Thanks! Now after finally getting the site up I wished I had started a few years ago. There are several shoeboxes of stuff to sort through here too. What's up now is all digital and recent. I'm striving to be half as good with a camera as Ferris Bueller. I know, I got a ways to go. ; )

Hope to have more sportbike images in the near future. The old school stuff is just so damn much fun to work with that I haven't really got a chance to try sportbikes in the same settings... yet.

JB2, i been busy as you know, sorry i missed this thread 'til today.

love your new site, and am eager to watch it grow and evolve.

you should be striving to be half as good as Corso or Dino, not me, but i appreciate the nod.

shameless plug for a good friend: buy one of JB2's calendars. i've got one, and it's good stuff. the $ goes to a good cause (i.e. it funds more cool stuff from JB2), and stays "in the family," so to speak.

nice work, JB2. : )

There are too many cool things about that picture. : )

Excellent choice for the cover shot.

Jim, great site, and I'm looking forward to watching it grow too.

Thanks mate. By the way, I still have your piston and I've not forgotten!

I was thinking one thing. In the speed record listing it struck me that not everyone will understand what 'pfs' etc means. I think this takes away from the achievement not knowing that you are reading about a pushrod engined bike that went over 200mph.

FB1, nice words my friend. I wouldn't ever assume that I could match you three but I'll keep trying. ; ) Dino's pretty tough you know.

Blake, that shot was an easy pick. The colors, the subject, the background. I shot several bikes on this bridge and none had the same effect as that old '49.

Rocket, I ain't forgot that compilation CD either... it's that whole time availability thing but damn do I have a ton of stuff to sort from... maybe a coupla discs are in order.

Rocket, idea duly noted. I'll work up a glossary of class abbreviations and post with the page. thumbsup

Nice site Jim, I love the graphics.

Am I the only one that noticed that guy picking his nose on the Story Teller page? Down in the lower left corner?

Grandparents are quick to notice those kind of things... :>; )

I'd given up on the CD Jim so I thought it was time I compiled another for ya. Have your kids got you listening to The Magic Numbers Yet? Best new band out of England this year.

Jack, didn't catch the 'gold digger' myself but I did see me knelt 'wrenching' before the Team Elves LSR Buell.

Jack, actually he's not. The edit gave it that appearance but the original photo looks entirely different. Maybe we'll recrop, hate that to be the focus after of years of effort.

Rocket, too much on the plate but you'll get it one day when you least expect it. Yeah I have several of you at Bonneville, even one of you doing a handstand after making the 130 club. Might have a Rocket gallery up one of these days. Haven't heard of Magic Numbers but I have been crankin' to Nickleback's new one and Reckless Kelly's "Wicked Twisted Road".

Awesome site...Definitely looking forward to watching as it grows and new stuff is added...

Yeah, you gotta catch up with Corso in the photo biz, I'm pretty sure FB just leaves his cam on auto and picks out the good ones...

Keep us updated on the masterpieces of KB2 as well, those few paintings you posted are very impressive...looking forward to prints!
