BobCat got broad
sided on the way home on Grove Street in Worcester. He has two
broken ribs,and side bones on his spinal cord were fractured along
with a cut on his head and bruised hip. The spinal cord is not as
bad as it sounds,he will be OK. He was admitted to the hospital to
make sure everything is OK.
Prayers or healing energy from all his family at 291 would surely
help his recovery. I will post more information as I get it but I'm
sure Bob will post as soon as he is able.

we only met briefly, but I am certainly glad that you are okay.

plain stupid. If anything, someone who immolated themselves 20 some odd 
years ago, should be more careful.

did what you thought was right and fair.  My prayers are going out to 
Bob and Jody and pray everything is o.k.  When things happen like this I

       I went home at lunch to get my bike but thankfully, I did not take 
it back to work because I got rear-ended in my truck while on my way 
home for the day.  I was only going about 60 - 65 MPH on the highway 
when I got hit ..I think she was going about 90 (maybe more).  I could 
see it coming too .. little Supra coming up fast in the middle lane, 
then slowly changed to my lane.  As I watched (one eye on the road, the 
other in my mirror), I was thinking to myself "Hmm, that car is coming 
up pretty quickly but the exit is coming and I'm in the lane so it will 
have to slow down"  Then I suddenly realized that it wasn't slowing and 
the next thing I know, I was hit hard, lifting the back of my truck off 
the ground (at least it felt like it).  On impact, it seemed as if my 
head was going to rip off and land in the back seat (the high-back 
bucket seats really aren't high enough).  Even though it was a pretty 
violent hit, there were no real injuries to anyone.  The funny thing is 
I wasn't even angry when I got out of my truck.  The bumper and floor of 
the bed are bent, cab has a couple dents (it doesn't look bad but it is 
worse than it looks - will be several thousand to fix) and her car 
looked surprisingly good.
       Just before she hit me, I could see that she had been injured in 
the past (severe burn scarring on every exposed area that I could see in 
my rear-view mirror) which became more apparent when I got out of the 
truck.  Maybe that's why I didn't call the police, I don't know .. she 
definitely would have been cited but maybe I thought she had enough to 
deal with.  So tonight, I decided to punch her name into Google and I 
got this http://www.phoenix-society.org/ProfileStory.asp?id=1390 .  She 
(or anyone in this situation) is a stronger person than I to go through 
life with such pain.  I feel lucky to be alive and as relatively healthy 
as I am, with few life injuries or scars.  Stay healthy, relatively safe 
and take care of yourselves (but have fun doing it),

   Chief

     Subject: [Chapter291] WOW WOWIE WOW WOW....


     I hope I wasn't the only one who got to ride today. Man, got up
     around 11, had every intention of getting a couple of bike keys 
made,
     took me to the locksmith in Worcester, then to Motorsports for the
     Honda key, and Performance for the Vulcan key. I don't know HOW I
     ended up nearly in Nashua, NH, got on 110 - 111 and kept going. 
Bike
     was perfect, minimal amount of centurians, though I did have one 
try
     to run into me by changing lanes without looking. Magoo, you've 
done
     it again!  Serendipitously came across Route 3, and hopped that 
going
     South, rode alongside a Harley guy for a bit on newly paved
     superslab, smooth as a baby's bottom,  got back off on 110.  Lots 
and
     lots of beautiful views, and many glimpses at Anytown, USA.
     I don't know what prevented me from continuing on cross-country, 
but,
     like sheep, we all find ourselves at work in our assigned stalls.
     It's not natural, I tell you. These days of perfect weather are 
rare,
     and even more rare are the odds of them occuring on a weekend. 
Cooled
     down quick, as expected this time of the year, planning on having 
my
     nuts somewhere around my chest area during the 2:30 am ride home.
     Supposed to be 74 tomorrow.......................anyone? anyone????

Subject: Re: bobcat

Thanks for the update. I am not far from UMASS, please let me know if 
there is anything that Bob needs, I can get over there lickety-split. I 
was dazed at work for the last couple of hours after reading the email, 
and the ride home, which should have been a terrific one in this 
unseasonably good weather was filled with paranioa.
  The important thing is that Bob is going to be alright. He'll probably 
be able to get a new bike out of the deal (NOT A HARLEY, BOB, NOT 
THAT!!!!), if there's a silver lining at all. Maybe if he's out and 
bored, he can take a ride with me Sunday, I'm going to try to go to 
Hartford, there's a bike show there, and some guy is supposed to give me 
a set of pipes for my Honda.
  And we're all waiting to hear the story about this.......

'Twas The Night Before Christmas (Biker Style)

'Twas the night before Christmas, And not until Spring,
Would an engine be running, not even a Wing.
The bikes are all sleeping, They're covered and warm
Batteries are tendered, nylon covers their form.
My Bros were all nestled snug in their beds,
While visions of new chrome danced in their heads.
And I in my doo-rag, bike jacket and boots,
Out shoveling snow, and dreaming of scoots.
Then from the horizon there came such a clatter,
My shovel I dropped, what could be the matter?
Away up the hill, I slogged through the snow,
Looked up at the sky; where'd all that noise go?

A throb from the heavens like straight pipes so hearty,
Gave Summers' good thoughts, a loud bikers' party.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a neat '02 Retro, Red trailer in rear.

With a little old rider, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than Crotchies his Retro came on,
And he whistled, and shouted, and sang out this song;

"Now, Harley! Now, Big Dog! On Honda and Beamer!
Now Yamaha! Now Injun! On Vict'ry and Triumph!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now RIDE away! RIDE away! RIDE away all!"

As small bikes that from the semis do fly,
When they meet with the air blast, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top that Ol' X it flew,
With a trailer of goodies, and ole' St. Nick too.

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof,
The rumble and thunder of pipes that gave proof.
I ran to the house, boots thumping around,
And in came St. Nick all bearded and round.

Dressed all in black leather, from do-rag to boot,
His chaps were all tarnished with road grime and soot.
A T-bag of goodies he'd flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.

His shades -- how they twinkled! his do-rag how scary!
With chains intertwined, through skulls that were cherry!
His droll little mouth had done many a row,
So the beard of his chin was as white as the snow.

The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
The smoke had a strange smell; it gave him relief!
He had a broad face and a large fat beer belly,
That shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly.

He was tattooed and plump, a right jolly old rider,
So I offered a cold Bud, thought what could be righter?
A wink of his eye as he downed that cold beer,
Gave me to know I had nothing to fear.

He spoke not a word, but went straight to my ride,
And fixed it with Chrome, Horsepower and Pride!
And giving the peace sign with bikers' good cheer,
Took off for his Retro which was rumbling quite near.

He sprang on the saddle, his gloves on the bars,
A wheeley he threw then off towards the STARS!
I heard him exclaim, as my chest swelled with pride...
"HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD RIDE!"

Hey, anyone that wants to ride;

We are having a ride from our sponsoring dealer on Saturday, and
we're probably going to putt around the interior seacost region of
New Hampshire. You're welcome to join us if you like.
http://www.star240.com/phpbb2/viewforum.php?f=14

Also, our chapter ride on Sunday is going up around Laconia. Some
great roads up there. http://www.star240.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?
t=404

I wish I was riding today...

Last weekend was awesome weather for riding, wasn't it?

;-)

Pat Rosenheim, president and webmaster
Star Touring Chapter #240 Essex County, MA

As I was cruising down I-95 the other day, I noticed quite a lot of the
Massachusetts "state flower" in full bloom alongside the highway. Those
brilliant orange and silver-white blossoms seem to literally explode onto
the scene in early spring. There seems to be three varieties; the tall
slender 'lily of the valley' that is prevalent all along the big dig and
it's entrails, the small conical 'croak-us' such as the ones on the upper
level of the Tobin near the tolls, and finally those magnificent and grand
'beer barrel blossoms'
like you see on I-95 and US-3.

This brings me to my point; These lovely flowers are harbingers of the
'gardening'
process that bestows those tiny grooves in the hardtop and other such lovely
diversions to safe travel. Seeming to disappear now are those gigantic
suv-swallowing craters on our roadways, slowly but surely being replaced
with smooth black asphalt sheets for our riding pleasure. But do not rest
easy just yet, because there are still plenty of moon-craters left, and I
assure you they can really wreak havoc on your mood if you suddenly find
yourself in mid-air over one of these canyons. So, unless you're Evel you'll
want to keep an especially watchful eye on the road up ahead in these first
few rides of the season.

The weather last weekend was extremely conducive to riding, especially on
Sunday when I rode back from Rye Beach with my jacket in my saddlebag. This
weekend also promises to be a winner, but please don't go spelunking on your
bike.

Be careful out there, and let's watch out for each other.

Feel The Wind, and Keep Your Knees In The Breeze!

Ride To Live, Live To Ride....Longer!
