    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Pic of the week game

Foggy memory but i think this photo was taken in '88 or '89.
Still in the same house but regrettably these two bike are both gone.

 
Two old brick kilns.

Two of the several there outside Medora IN about 20-25 east of Bedford.
Are also some other old abandoned facilities there.
I think where bike is parked would have been a truck loading area. A large paved area, now with lots of stuff growing up through the pavement.


More of my pics there that day are here

I saw this place 12-14 years ago on my first couple Brown COunty rallys. Rode past it while riding with groups. Was behind and in shrubs and trees but could see was something there.
About 8 years ago I went there to check it out and see what it was.
And have stopped there with others a couple times in recent years.
A couple years ago the brush and trees were cleared out. HAs been some effort underway to make into a historic site or park or something.
Last year I stopped there, and spent a while exploring around with camera.

Very cool, Sandy!! Are you & your brother twins? Easy resemblence in that photo.

Naw, he's the old fart by, 2 yesrs, that got me hooked on this maddness when we were in our teens. LOL, there's over 100 years of riding in that picture.
 
So in my past life about 8 years ago...well maybe 6 I used to fight live steel, sword and mace. The sword on the left is the very first sword that I used for fighting and the one on the right is the sword that I fought for 15 years till I retired from the sport.
