Unknown Substance
So much to write down and express as this is more for me then you SOB’s but I will miss it so. I have been wrestling with the decision for over a year now but have come to the conclusion that the fire is no longer there. The anticipation of the start of track season, looking at the school schedules on a New Year’s Eve, checking out craigslist every day for track bike I would never buy. I can’t quite place when it was not in my blood anymore but it still saddens me. It was not the girlfriend/wife, money, nor any life changing experience. I have come to terms with the decision but wanted to say a few things before I left for good as I have met some amazing people and have made friends that I will miss.
First, thank you Eric for taking a newbie street punk under your wing and taking the time to mentor me on your own time. I will always remember those sessions…R.I.P. friend, mentor, brother. #235
EA showing incredible trust!
Blu – When we first met, it was almost a fight because I was being an idiot. You rock that 750 and thanks for giving those tows bro, you’re a maniac on a motorcycle You’ll always remember my Thill turn 2 experience too!
Lance & Linda for running a great school and track days. Always felt like a family event and your instructors are top notch. Will miss the morning pre-ride jokes.
Ernie – You’re probably like who the hell is this guy? I will never forget that session (race) we did at Thill. You ride good for an old man Keep those punks on their toes out there and definitely on this forum.
Ken Hill - Thanks for the pro tips...never got to ride with you:mad
I could spend pages but let’s keep it short. I will miss the pit talks under the canopy, making friends, and the smell of fuel, oil, and BBQ’s. Riding at Thill when it’s over 100 degrees with full kit and braking so hard in turn 14 that the sweat would hit your visor and you can’t see. Helping fallen riders get their bike back together, loaning/giving parts, wrenching together instead of resting so they will be out to ride again. The Golden Pheasant Inn lol, and the good food and drinks at Casa Ramos hanging with the crew and trading battle stories from the days ride. And to the rest of you nutters who ride just to ride, better your skills, and go out and play with your friends as if you were 13 years old again. 63 out.
P.S. I will still make fun of street squids and the rest of those posers who think they are fast on the street. Come to the track and have your az** handed to you by a girl on a Ninja 250 vs your R1...
