I think we should do a picture of Mark (maybe taken on the bike) and have everybody in the Tribe sign it ... then post it ... that way everybody gets to share in this, as it's a family thing.

Whatcha think?

This would be very very cool! Someone on here must be a photography nut. It would be nice to get a high resolution pic with everyone in it (w/ a DSLR so I could blow it up to a larger size like 20x16).

We've got pro photographers in this joint who could probably do up something nice.

Thank you to Kevin for your donation (sorry it took so long for me to recognize your generosity)

And Thanks to Andy who gave me a Home Depot gift card to put in with the donations.

And Thanks to Lloyd (un-kola) who made a very generous donation even though he joined the site only last month., and drove down from San Dimas to give it to me.

All the stuff I wanted to get out was behind those ceiling beams. Such as it is.

....the frame, bottom bracket and rear triangle are all toast...but..umm...how can I ask this....are those forks still any good?

You won't catch me riding around on them...purely from a safety standpoint it isn't worth risking it. The garage got hot enough to bake liquid into the paint of my car--no, I don't know why the tires on the bike didn't pop/melt (not exposed to direct flame?), but I can tell you that it was very very warm.

actually....i kinda wanted them for my self......even burned to a crisp they are probably still much better than the crappy Judy's I still have on my 7-year old bike

Thank you very much to Thomas, Eric, Jose and Mario for your donations. I am sorry that it took so long to recognize you for it.

Thank you again to Gene who donated again when he bought one of the STR headset caps.

Stopped by Adrenaline yesterday and saw Mark's bike on the rack. It is a sweet ride, he'll be totally stoked. Still need donations though. Help out what you can. Thanks in advance. Looking forward to seeing the look on Mark's face and everyone else's face.
