Uncle B, Gone but not forgotten

[Str8 Jacket]

I can't believe it's been 3 years since that 'Black weekend'. I still remember what I was doing that day when Jim rung and told me....

I reckon he'd be proud at how much I have learnt and how much of a better rider I am now compared to when he was mentoring me!

RIP mate, I still think about you all the time!

[White trash]

Certainly the worst fucken weekend I can remember Hels, good call.

May they all rest in peace.

Gone but never forgotten. R.I.P Bruce.

Yep, I had quite a few KBers over at my place for a BBQ on the Sat when we found out about LB & DSS. Never seen so many "loud" people go so quiet.

The news about Uncle B on the Sunday was almost too much to cope with...

[Pex Adams]

Yeah - 3 years.. Wow how things have changed as time moves on.

My thoughts are really with Debbie today, and the mess that she has managed to get herself through, as she moves on with her life.

Bruce was such a huge loss to us all, and I'm sure there will be a few people out there tonight having a beer, smoke, and a slab of chocolate to remember the big guy. As I'm absolutely sure thats what he would have wanted..

[crazyhorse]

Sorry to hear of your loss. You never forget, they stay with you forever :love:

I never met Bruce, Bruce or Darryl... but I do remember that dark weekend.
Thoughts are with their families and friends

I was with my family at the duck pond just last weekend. Had a sit on the seat, a bit of a remember.

Not forgotten at all.

Yeh awesome guys gone to early.

I never used to ride with Uncle B's other riding mates. If I went for a ride with Bruce it was him and me. The only times my R6 got used the way it was supposed to be was with Bruce. He inspired confidence and he went the extra mile for mates when they needed it. He wasn't perfect, but that just made him more human.

I'll certainly be letting one rip, in true Bruce fashion tonight. My wife will understand.

Wow...3 years. Definitely not forgotten. I still remember his cheeky smile and the way he used to tease me on my FXR, the way he used to teach the art of riding so well and the cofidence he inspired in the riders around him. RIP Uncle B.

3 Years.
I was thinking about Bruce on the weekend as I was going over the hill on Sunday. I was really concentrating on being smooth, smooth as I could & Uncle B popped into my head.
Not forgotten.

I was at school camp yesterday in Rotorua (mountain bike camp). I saw a chap wearing a KB t shirt, got chatting as you do...the bike he was loading in his car was Uncle B's old one.
We shared a laugh or two and a memory of Uncle B...

Which bike was that?
The Mountain Bike, Buell or the SV?

You're right there, Jimmy.

It certainly changed a lot of peoples outlook on riding...

May there not be one like it again.......

[Kendog]

RIP Uncle B.

I still think about your words of advice while riding.

[Ms Piggy]

Wow! 3 years since 1 of the good guys left us.

Gone but never forgotten Bruce - in fact I was thinking about you just the other day.

[Hitcher]

I think about Bruce most times we're at The Fush. He was easy company. He'd wander up, roll a smoke and talk about anything. I remember well the day he commandeered my ST1300 leaving me trying to play catch up on his SV1000.

[chanceyy]

Riding to Danniverke yesterday & on the back of my bike today to Napier, I had a wee convo with loose bruce & uncle B as I meet them both at the same time

RIP guys .. thought of often, never forgotten
