    Book for Loosebruce

    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

    Awesome man.
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    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.

    Awesome.

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

    Here

    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...

    Didn't know the man unfortunately. But this seems like a great idea
