Title: A great loss in Mobile...
Post by: Chuck & Susan on November 04, 2017, 08:28:43 AM
Here is a link to a story about Mike Porter who lost 50 years of projects and antique bikes in a fire.  Luckily noone got hurt but loss $100K of bikes.

Prayers to the family.

 Y'all remember a member on BR V1 called Magoo? (real name Tom). Well that was his brothers motorcycles that went up in flames. Had a LOT of really cool old bikes...of all brands.  :( Lost most of them in the fire.

Yea...I know...and to be honest with you, it is not the loss of the motorcycles that for me, is so bad.

It is the heartache I know he is going through. He has been an avid collector for MANY years.  :-[
