    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.

Scotty, I am sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. He sounds like he was a pretty decent guy.

Obviously, we can't get his side of the story, but fog is always dangerous when you are on a bike.

Most drivers don't want to see you in bright sunlight, but in fog, you can literally be invisible. I seldom ride in fog, and try to avoid being near anything on the road if I do, even other bikes.
 
Scotty, I am so sorry for the loss of your dear friend. Both his family and you will be in our hearts and prayers.
I lost a very dear friend in a motorcycle crash almost 10 years ago, and still think about him. Friends may go, but the good memories will last a lifetime.
One day we'll all meet up again, with all our friends that have gone before us.
 
with some of the recent events on our website, i have been thinking of Wally again. I guess i just have a case of the blues because i had to leave Pensylvania and come back to florida.

in a month or so bigdaddy and i want tomake a run up I-95. Me on the Kawa and he on his wing. I am getting stupid thoughts about something happening to my old friend bigdaddy/Gerry.
He wants to visit folks in new york and i will stop in pensylvania again.

I'm just thinking out loud to my GS friends. All of you are important to me. Even the rednecks :lol: or maybe especially them :D
 
Sorry for the loss Scotty. Like you said, maybe he can have some peace now. Doesn't make it any easier I know.

Take care friend
Michael
 
Scotty,

I have a number of friends that I have lost over the years and I don't think they're ever really gone. As long as we remember them they live on in the minds and hearts of the people who knew and loved them.

I have had several friends die in the past couple of years. I went on the Hill Country ride and took the following week off to see some friends that I hadn't seen since 1968. We shared a lot of things over the years and remembered a lot of people who aren't around now.

I actually got to thinking about old friends because of one of the deaths and then really felt bad about all of the friends that I had just given up just because of time and distance. I think in some ways this is even sadder than the ones we loose to death.

I hooked up with three friends from my high school days and I think we'll stay hooked up for a while anyway.

:D :D glad to hear that :wink: :D :D
 
I'm so sorry for what happened. It's good that you keep this tragedy at the front of your mind when you ride. It just keeps you that much more aware. It can happen to any of us, and the only thing to do is be vigilant when we ride.

If you fall off the horse, get back on it. Don't let it get you down.
