Ian Report post Posted April 23, 2008 Very nice. I have never been a sentimental person, but this last week's events have helped me understand the importance of memorials like your beautiful seat. Last Tuesday a good freind of mine was killed on his bike. It has been a hell of a week, as I was next to him when he died. Tommy was a bike collector and I'm proud that I made seats for several of his restorations and customs, including the bike he was killed on. It is a tough thing to wrap your mind around. If there was any consolation, the number of people that came to his funeral yesterday showed how well he was thought of. Even the mayor was there, and the flags in the city were half mast. Still, how do you get used to the idea that you'll never see a friend again? You've given me an idea for a seat I'm going to do. It will never sit on a bike, but it will be a great satisfation to make another one for Tommy. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickeyfro Report post Posted April 23, 2008 Sorry to hear about your friend Ian, Ive lost a few bros on bikes myself, It was a real honor to have someone I didnt even know ask me to make this seat, for his actual brother, he's in florida and I havent been able to show him the completed seat yet, I hope he's satisfied with it. Id loke to see the seat you make for Tommy when its done. Rick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spider Report post Posted April 23, 2008 My heart to both of you and the ones that have lost. Rick, this is a great looking seat. Had me staring for a while and didn't even realize it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
