Shocked at the news of Tugboat Bill , the guy is a hero of mine and a legend in the Adventure riding world

Nice work posting the link Eags , awareness to the signs is essential with this illness.

Fu&k I have been floored since Eagle rang me and gave me the heads up as he knew I was away. I can’t believe it and am shattered to say the least. I rang Boulder cause I know he knew Bill and I rang Nick cause we have watched the Adventure Motobiken DVDs and have discussed him and his exploits with Phil almost daily when on a ride. A hero to me also, a legend to many like me that watched him ride and shit he could ride anything anywhere it seemed.

Black dog, depression whatever it’s name is needs more awareness from all of us

A bloody black day

RIP Tugboat

We all have our bad days and sometimes longer times of a bad run, even a hint of self doubt can creep up on ya :unsure:
I know I sometimes have had a few in the past with the pressures of day to day life, illness, injury, work and financial stress etc etc

It`s so important to take time out, step back,let it out, talk to someone,,,,
For Christs Sake, Don`t become a statistic

We are all valuable to many, even if it doesn`t feel like it at times

Cheers Jacko

Yeah,,
Sorry to spoil your family weekend Greg, but I figured you hadn`t heard :dry:
I know you respect those guys, what they did & stood for and it must be tough to hear ,,,

Raise a can for Bill around the fire hey You probably already did just that I reckon ,,,

Cheers

To be 100% honest Eags I put my drink down and went for a ride in the dark, those KTM lights are pretty hopeless but I wasn’t going fast. I went over to the main homestead to deliver a message and tried to get my head around the whole thing. Thanks for the heads up Eags hasn’t ruined my weekend just left my wondering about life.
