    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Bob,
First, let me say THanks for representing the GSR so well with TomMLC.

Hey Redman, in my haste I missed this thank you note, which was nice of you.

Well, whatever I could do for Tom and the fantastic people here I feel is nothing compared to all the help and friendship I have received. I am not much of a mechanic at all, I usually break something trying to repair something else. I just have to slow down and listen - 99% of the time the people here are right. And Tom represented the GSR very well, and maybe I learned from him.Lords knows I am still learning from him.

We met in June 2009 by him replying to my craigslist posting where I was asking, no, begging, for help with my 1982 GS1100GL. He always offered everything and anything in his garage to help me get going again. I never met anyone like him.

Unfortunately I never got to know Tom as well I wish I had. I was just lucky enough to live very close to him, 10 miles away. Up until the last month we had only been together maybe 10 times in three years, and had a meal together maybe only twice, each time while out on a ride. We would call each other all the time to try to schedule a weekend ride, but it seldom worked out because he had his exercise class in the mornings and that is the only time free from the family I get to ride. I think we only went riding maybe five or six times. I sure do regret not spending more time with him because easily he was my best friend in the 10 years I've lived in San Jose.

Thanks again for your note and you and everybody here let me know if there is anything I can do for any of you. I am looking forward to meeting a few of his friends at the service next Friday Feb 8.

-Bob
