Memorial, No Spokes, roadhouse

I  attended the Memorial for No Spokes at the Roadhouse this afternoon. No Spokes was an active member of the Motorcycle community in years past. As part of the memorial there was also a tree planting. As part of the planting, everyone was given the opportunity to put a shovel of dirt on the base of the tree, which was pretty neat. A letter was also read to the group from his sister. And of course there were many opportunities to share stories about No Spokes with your friends.

P.S. I also got to continue my personal project to take head and shoulder portraits of two of my Gypsy friends.

Bandido James, Memorial, sams town point

I got off work a bit early so Debbie and i could head down to Sam’s Town Pont for the memorial for Bandido James. I must say I clearly didn’t get off early enough to beat any of the traffic, but I guess an hour to go from north Austin to South Austin isn’t too bad. Anyway I did enjoy having the opportunity to take a photo of the train as it was slowly driving by in the opposite direction as we sat in traffic. When we arrived at our destination, we had no problem finding a parking place, so I guess we were early enough. Not that attendance was light, it wasn’t. Motorcycle parking was available, with road guard duty courtesy of the Companeros. It was a good think that the “party” lasted from 2pm till 10pm, cause we saw pretty much a continuous stream of bikes arriving and later leaving, to make room for more people to arrive. Food was provide, with a pretty good selections of various types of salads, and casseroles. I managed to get the last scoop of a potato, cheese, corn flake topped casserole, and it was very tasty. We did of course talk to lots of people, and express our condolences to the family. I must say that the atmosphere while somewhat subdued, was certainly punctuated with laughter and lots of pleasant conversation. We are all sad that James is no longer with us, but we were able to hear stories about him being shared, which is a good thing. I don’t know if God has a race track, but if there is a race track test team, I am sure James is on it. Go James.

Memorial Celebration for Cyclops (Calvin Koether) at the Tavern in Round Rock

calvin koether, Cyclops, Memorial, Round Rock Tavern

We went to the Memorial celebration for Cyclops this evening at the tavern. As you may know, Calvin fought a long time against cancer, and he is now beyond that pain, and riding with the angels. I think Heaven is a lot noisier today that it was last week. This celebration was attended by lots of Calvin’s friends. Too many really for this small venue, but we packed in and were blessed to hear many stories about Calvin. It was a joy indeed. He not only fought cancer, he managed to bless lots of people while he was doing it. Calvin was diagnosed with cancer 11 years ago, and at that time he was given six months to live. Well, here we are 11 years later, and it is certainly fair to say he made the most of his time. you will be missed Cyclops, and remembered often.

This was a joyous but very emotional event, so I apologize in advance for having captured some private moment of grief over the loss of such a good friend. If you would like a particular photo removed, just let me know.
