So sweet. Thanks but not a selfless act so not a "hero". Not like the people here (like you) that helped to give me and others a leg up. :thumbup

My barf hero list is too long to post. :twofinger
 
Khill, elskipador, watthedeuce, wetshrub, eeek, flatulent dan and twf are all studs:thumbup
 
as a moderator, i'd like to thank all of YOU members that make what is teh BARF a happening and fun forum to be part of....

yes, we do have our dramas and issues that every once in awhile may get all the attention for a bit but that's still a small percentage ...

through it all, the forum comes together as a whole in a positive light and everyone offer something that makes teh BARF a whacky but fun and helpful place i'm proud to be part of...

thanks to all of you again....:cool

you are all heros in the m/c community whether you know it or not...

+1 Amen. To all us strange individuals who love to ride things with two wheels.
 
Rene, aka Bisugo is a BARF hero. His Mellow group rides are known through out the Bay Area and beyond. The rides are fun, well organized and keep people returning year after year. His time and effort are sometimes taken for granted but he is admired and respected as a leader.
Well done,
Thanks Rene!
 
My heros are the many strong, capable women of BARF who inspired me to keep riding, be a better rider and do a trackday. Danni, Connie, Gwynne, Roxy, Tina, Yella, Theresa, Littlebeast, Nemo, Kimmah, Christieland, there are too many to name. Thank you all for being an inspiration to me. :)

You guys are all my hero's.. you stayed with me when I had to piss really bad while I was stuck on the BB in a cage last year.. :love
 
Connie because that chick dropped everything the night before thanksgiving to drive from Livermore to Palo Alto to pick up some poor sap who broke down. my hats off to her.

all the other obvious heroes have been mentioned.
 
Really to many to list.

Valgar because his dedication to barf is an amazing thing and without that the barf would not be what it is.

Bap for always being willing to help and being there to bounce shit off of for 8 years.

Silversvs, Enchanter, Data Dan and Connie for their work with moto safety are near the top.

So many members have overcome crashes, life challenges and more..Paul, Adam.. etc etc..

So many have supported barf in so many ways.. volunteering at 1Rider deals, helping with the race team, leading our rallies.

All the Moderators past and present who have spent countless hours moderating the site that can be very frustrating at times. I feel that because of these folks barf has grown to be a pretty good place.

Dad's like Ivan (97rr) and Matt that give their kids so much support in chasing their passions.

Guys like Keith Code that take time from world travels to interact with us.

theSteveco for having the vision to start this place and all the members that have created a community by leading group rides, having social gatherings, help their fellow riders, give insight into the ride, provide great threads about so many diverse subjects..

Hero's is a strong word.. but we have so many good people that deserve a handshake a smile and my gratitude.

I salute the already mentioned BARFers, but want to put in a plug for all those noobs who come here and ask the noob-questions. Not only do they remind us of things we may have forgotten over the years but sometimes they inadvertently create some epic and memorable threads.

Big salute to Budman, for his generosity and dedication to this site.
 
wrbrown and neo777 for helping me (and a couple other folks) out after crashes.

wrbrown and ironbutt also receive the Awesome BBQ award. :teeth



...And BARF in general, for helping me survive my first year and a half learning to ride in the heart of San Francisco. Without the stuff I've learned here who knows where I'd be, but probably not riding!
 
Max Smiley and Magyarbetyar and Mrtnz for being some of the first barfers that made me feel welcome at a meet.
Cat_In_Sf for opening her home to so many barfers and making epic foodz
Elskipador for fixing my shit
Valgar for fixing this site, and making old nerd jokes
Bap for helping me learn to ease down on a ride.
Budbandit, Thump, GaryJ and GIXXERSIN for being some excellent riding coaches when I was a n00b.
OFG and OFW for hosting the awesome parties.
SVSick50 for the Flava Guy thread
Flava Guy for the Flava Guy thread
Senna68, motorkid, and chainlash for helping me get into racing.
f4iChic for being a cranky old git, even if she's really kinda sweet.
Anyone I;ve ever ridden with, camped with, froze my balls off with, had a beer together or just had a great chat.

Looking over this list, there's a whole lot of old fuckers on here who rarely post, if at all - My life is such where I've taken a step back from this board and its community - so here's a thanks to all the folks I don't know so well or havent met, that keep the great community of this place going. you all rawk.
 
There are some definite heroes listed here...I can't think of any that haven't been mentioned. A hero is a special person and given the weight of the definition, it makes sense that there aren't tons of them.

That said, I'd like to recognize Roadstergal, WoodsChick and NemoBrinker as three people of significance here. Their humorous take on life, skills and devotion to riding always leave me wanting to hear more from them.
