As many of you know we lost Bill about a year ago. One of the things we did was to adopt the road he passed away on. The terms call for a cleanup of the road 4 times a year. During the 1st cleanup in early summer, I found this tag. I held onto it thinking I could find an appropriate use. I eventually thought it would make a good thing to hang on a bike that had an agricultural experience at the next MAD Track Days, thus the picture below.

In the corner I signed it "Bill Bowen Was Here", Bill loved the event, always had a good time, and even used a picture of him on the Paso, going from turn 3 to turn 4, as his avatar here on the forum. The bike is Henry's, who some here know, he was also a friend of Bill's, and he took it in stride, and had no injuries despite leaving the track at a reported 100 MPH. He gets to sign the back and pass it on at the next MAD Track Day if someone has an unfortunate agricultural experience.

Cannot seem to get the photo to a size that will fit within the board limits and be visible enough - the Sign Says FARM USE. - Gene
