I think these guys are thinking if they make it easier to get to the track, guys will go. I'm torn.
The track is not the answer for everyone. I love street riding. I still ride the gap, have lost several friends there. Bill loved the street, I would rather give my money to help something he loved.

Tracks can kill people as well. Peter Lenz for one. We had a rash of incidents a few years ago in a local org.

Then it should probably go to his gym.

Yeah, we don't have to decide this right away. If we could find out what his family would want, that would be the best option.

Yup. I'm a big fan of not deciding things when it is emotional.

Still bummed. Dead sucks.

I wouldn't trust the shitbags on that forum with my money. Notice they're putting THEIR name on the fund, not HIS.

Like any "place", there are good guys and there are bad guys over there. I trust some of them very much and some of them not at all. The fact that they're putting the fund in their name instead of his own is the kicker here.

I'm happy to put a track day in his name. It should be in HIS name, not the Sean A. Memorial Track Day (for Bill)

Did we ever establish where he worked out after the Koloseum closed?

I too thought this was a joke. I used to chat with Bill a long time ago on AOL back in the CF days.

RIP buddy. You'll be missed.
