    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

An old friend from back in the day....we were roommates when this pic was taken....he was fast! 9 sec 1/4 miles with no wheelie bars. He used to say "Trevor, anyone can go fast with wheelie bars"...he tragically took his own life years ago....

 
Wow!

Sad that he took his own life. Fond memory of him in that pic. Thanks for sharing.

SUPER cool pic, Trev. Depression is more and more a life-threatener. The world is more grim for many as they grow older than it has been in decades.
 
Awesome in action shot!
Always sad to hear of someone taking their life. While it may have been years ago, I'm sorry for your loss.
 
Cool pic, Trev.
Doesn't look like Cayuga, is that Sparta?

That would be Sparta.... I even raced my 83 Gs 750 e there...his name is Kevin Blackmore, he was a drag racing legend there. Looked like a mild mannered accountant.... very preppy. But a mad man on a bike. Very smart... when I lived with him he went to Western University and he wanted to be an insurance actuaries.
Grand Bend Motorsports has a memorial race weekend every year in his honour.
 
Yes, Kevin was a local legend. He worked for Lafarge, an industrial cement producer. I raced against him many times. I remember attending his funeral in Woodstock. The church was packed with friends from the dragracing community. We were horrified and shocked by his death. A grim reminder of the power of depression.

Nice to know you were at his Funeral. Kevin worked at that cement plant while he was in university and living with me...he did not like it. But it became a case of "golden hand cuffs"...money was too good. He probably would have been happier doing something else but it gave him the time off to do his racing.
He was a funny guy and it makes me so sad to think he was hurting so much.
