Bill Murar on a CSC 150 in the Lake Erie Loop!

That’s my good buddy Bill in the photo above, at speed, riding the Lake Erie Loop, a 600-mile scooter endurance rally.  I first met Bill shortly after starting the CSC blog.  Bill is a retired firefighter who is a serious Iron Butt rider, and he wanted a CSC scooter to ride in the Lake Erie endurance event back in those days.   We were only too happy to oblige.

Yesterday, I received a nice note from Bill, and I want to share it with you…

Joe:

I’ve just registered for the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, a fundraising motorcycle ride to help beat prostate cancer. You’re receiving this because you happen to be in my phone directory and because you know what a fanatic I am about riding. This year’s ride is on September 30th and, ironically, my birthday is on September 29th. Now, I know you were going to send me some kind of gift (nudge nudge, hint hint), but in lieu of that, I’d prefer that you make a nominal donation in my name for this great cause. Or, better yet, join me on the ride. To do either (or both) go to www.gentlemansride.com/fundraiser/WilliamMurar227980

Thanks,
Ride Aware,
Bill

Bill, that’s awesome!  Thanks for writing and we’re only too happy to post your request here on the ExNotes blog.   How about it, folks…let’s help Bill in this most noble cause!
