Book for Loosebruce

[Big Dan]

Hello All

I have decided to write a book about Bruce's life and antics. I have asked his family for their blessing which they have given me so now that I have LooseBruce's parents blessing and this weekend i'm going to start work on this there are 3 main reasons for writing this book

1. For Hunter(his son) to have and read and see what a great man his daddy was/is
2. For all that would like to relive the great times and see behind the man
3. As my tribute to LB

I can just hear LB as i write this up saying (yeah i'm cool, they writing a book about me)

Anyone that has stories photos about him pm me and i'll msg back e-mail address

Take care all and safe riding and look forward to hearing from you

My Aim is to have the book completed by dec 2

[Colapop]

Awesome man.

[0arbreaka]

You've got my support

[bugjuice]

ditto. awesome thing

[crashe]

awesome....... what a fantastic idea......

How many books are you planing on producing?
Are you gonna get a publisher to produce it for you?

What cost to buy a book, if X amount are produced?

[Matt Bleck]

I can't wait to read it!! :2thumbsup

[Macktheknife]

What a great idea! Well done that man.

[Big Dan]

haven't really looked that far forward on publishing at this stage i'm just working out the format for the book and in the collection phase of getting stories from KBers and Friends and family

my goal is when making copies is to cover my costs and what ever profits made will go into a trust fund for Hunter(his son)

I'm excited about doing this for Bruce and i'll keep you up to date on progress

The family put a post on the tribute thread about the cross unveiling for Bruce and Daryl on easter weekend at the crash site. It would be great to see all there

Top effort, but I think you'll need some help from Hitcher.

[ManDownUnder]

Awesome.

I barely knew the guy - but 2 anecdotal stories for you

Here (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=33707)

And - the first time I met his was (sadly) on the way to forming up for the funeral of another KBer. I was unsure of where I was, stopping to look for street names. Bruce came roaring up, stopping - "You from KB? Looking for directions?"

"Yup"

"No sweat - follow me"

Finding my way was no longer an issue - keeping up was.

God's Speed to Bruce though. I know there were pegs down for him and Daryl for a long time after they passed away. They got to ride with more KBers that week...

thats awesome man, bruce was truely a legend and there are many humorous stories to tell i will pm ya one when i have a moment, although alot of them are already in the origional tributes thread so that would be a very good start point.

R.I.P bruce , we all dream of even being half the rider and bloke you were.

Hitchers' a member alright. He's also a moderator and could help you with grammar and punctuation.

(I was having a light hearted go)

Hitcher is surprised to see his name mentioned in despatches.

[Big Dan]

I'll be at the cross unveiling this saturday and would love to meet ppl and get contact details of thoses who would like to add stories to the book it doesn't matter how big or how small they are

see you there

[DEATH_INC.]

I've got a couple, but I'm really shit at telling stories.....and it takes me a while to remember details......but I'll see what I can come up with.....it's for Bruce after all.

[Deviant Esq]

Count me in for an order of the finished product. I never had the privilege of meeting the man himself, but stories abound about him. Have read a few of his posts on KB and thought he sounded like a top bloke just from them... so I'd very much enjoy reading a book all about him and his exploits. Good on you mate.

[Krusti]

When my mother died about 10 years ago we, the family, put together a book of stories she told us while she was ill. It was only a smallish booklet form but was way cool in the end. Cover photo was taken by me even!

We sold these for $5 a book and donated the money to a breast cancer cause. Surprisingly we had to do a re run.

To me as her son this is something tangible that I can have and pass down to my kids. Not to mention just flick through now and then.

Great idea and good on you for taking this on....:yes:

[Duke girl]

What a wonderful thing u r doing for Bruce's family especially for his son. Look forward to reading it once it is finished and I wish u goodluck with it all.
