Remembering Kelly Brown (K_FleXXX)

On a serious note, do we have something planned during the event to pay our respects to Kelly Brown? Maybe a memorial ride, or gathering, or something? I think I'm going to bring a pic of Kelly's bike at least and put it on the tree where he died. I don't think that would be in poor taste, but I would gladly allow someone else do it if they were close to him (Chris? Kendall?) Anyway, I realize that the convention is all about having a good time, and I plan on doing just that, but I would like to at least make sure everyone knew what happened last year, and that the Dragon has sharp fangs. For those members who are planning on coming to the Convention, but do not know why it's called the "Kelly Brown Memorial Convention", read the following: The thread which was started when it all happend.

Hey guys. NSDQ (Jeff) and myself had these made. We have about 200 or so to pass out at the Gap Trip for people to wear in memory of Kelly while we are there. The say RIP Kelly "K-FleXXX" Brown and 06-15-2006 http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q60/vmaxman06/IMG_0494.jpg http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q60/vmaxman06/IMG_0495.jpg http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q60/vmaxman06/IMG_0493.jpg

Maybe even a memorial ride up the Dragon in his honor too. :dunno

Those wristbands are really nice Bogie and NSDQ. Well done. NSDQ - you going to be there this year? Wondering about Kendall / Chris and their crew also.

Brought back memories :fact Thanks Shane. It just seemed like the right thing to do. :fact I go through pics of last years trip at least once a month and I look at the pics of Kellys wreck and Stephens too just to remind me of how quick the situation can go bad. I will not be pushing it at all this June. :no Please lets make a huge effort to be accident free this June my friends. :thumbup

Bogie and NDSQ if you want like a buck each for the wristbands I think that would be fair.

We both felt that this would be a nice thing to do in his memory. :thumbup You can pay me back by riding safe and within your limits down there. :yesnod

The bracelet is a very good idea. Even though I didnt personally know Kelly, I still feel that I lost a friend that day.

I know what you mean Marty....I went 2 corners down and started to get people to slow down for the emergency crew working there. When the volunteer firefighter came back by and told me he was gone my heart sank!! :(
