Not taking anything personal at all man..lol But, I would ask if you could quote me on where I claimed it was for a "friend" about the bike? I never said that either, I said that I offered lower in cash to see what he would really take to help others out on here, that may be SERIOUSLY interested, because I felt like it was VASTLY over priced. I never once said it was for a friend? That is probably why it is not adding up for you, which is really not a big deal bro. As far as the clutch cover, I didnt see why I could not bid? I had previously stated that had/will be giving money to them, EVERY chance I got, but it seems like everyone on here expected me to sell my cars, house, and family off and give them ALL the money I had? I have my own family and etc as well, and have given them (as I have stated numerous times) over 3k ALREADY, but I mean one can only give so much. I love him to death, but at the same time they (and I thought you guys) wouldnt expect me to sell everything I have and pinch pennies to give them ALL my money. I have a my own life, and have learned through my parents deaths, and through other hard times, you do your best to help, but at the same time, you do not put yourself or your family out in the process. My aunt did not expect a DIME from me, and with a house payment, 2 kids, and a stay at home wife, I think I have went above/beyond giving them as much as I have. But, will continue to do so, each chance I get!! I hate that people were thinking this way at all!

 

I thought when this all started, that you guys WANTED to do this as a benefit, to help them and just simply help out. I'm not sure how it all got out of hand, and the crazy assumptions came up. And you, knowing me a little better than some of these other guys,(albeit not GREAT) I thought you may had got a better feel of what type of person I was? But, I guess not.

 

Is this what everyone is thinking, because if so, hell...it's obvious I may not be wanted on the site and/or the ride. And, I would surely hope that is not the case?

I actually just noticed how you smeared my name all over another thread too, and there were 8-10 members who posted after that who now think I'm some kind of con artist or something. I would have rather you pm'ed me or something rather than ruining my reputation on here in one post. I'm not too sure why you did that, but I dont appreciate that at all man. I have no problem at all with not doing the benefit, and I dont know if I did not explain it good enough before, so I will again.

 

 

My uncle got cancer a little while back, I had put my Banshee up for sale during that timeframe. Then the benefit ride came about, and that was great idea. It was all about raising money to go toward the cost of treatment, and etc. NOTHING was coming to me. This was for them. They were having a rough time, and then a guy came to look at the banshee. He wanted to buy it, so I went ahead and let it go (knowing I could get another one in the same price range, before the benefit) I GAVE the $2200 to them, and they did what they needed to, and used some for a treatment. I got my regular taxes back, and picked up a decent shee, fairly cheap today. I'm married, have a job, a son, a kid on the way, and I NEVER said that I, MYSELF was EVER hurting for cash, I said they were, and I was doing all I could to help. I've gave them a little over 3k total, and was going to give them what I could from the benefit. So, I do not understand how that came about, I thought we were raising money for my UNCLE and his family...not me? I stated in the very beginning, that this was a benefit to aide his costs, and it would be fun to do an HQ benefit.

 

Here is my original post when I first brought it up.....I NEVER said I was "hurting" and I also said my shee would remain for sale, until things were final.

 

"As some/most of you know I had a family member that has been diagnosed with cancer. I automatically put my Banshee up for sale, in order to help out with treatments. Most will be covered, but I know a few wont, so I want to surprise my family by helping! A few members indicated that they would be down for a benefit ride. After thinking on it, I wanted to start this topic and see if there is really any interest at all.

 

It wouldnt matter to me what you could donate/spare as it would go to a GREAT cause, and I would get to keep my Banshee. We could possibly make the "Haspin Trip" the benefit ride if you guys would like.

 

If everyone is interested, that would be great! I'm trying to raise around $1800 total for him. If we do this, I would have a jar or whatever and like I said I wouldnt care if you put .05 in there or $50 in there, every little bit gets me closer to the goal, all with keeping my Banshee!

 

Until we finalize everything, my Banshee will remain for sale, so if there is any interest in it check the for sale section.

Thank you, and GOD BLESS." - Page 4 of this thread

 

As I said before, It's totally cool to not do it, but doing what you did to my name...and making me look bad, not cool.

 

First things first, I didn't make you look bad or "smear" your name here I just asked a couple of questions. Think about it, you say you have 4g to buy the bike when to benefit was originally started to raise enough money so you could keep your Banshee and still help your family. In my eyes the benefit was for you in that you get to keep your Banshee and still take care of your family's needs. I've been getting PM after PM from people who aren't buying this. I just had to be the guy to step up and say something. I'm not going to go into detail about what I've been told but trust me, I know more than you think I do. I was asked to keep the stories between the person telling me and myself and I'll do just that unless they want to come out and say something publically. It's stories like SheeRider posted above. You were going to outbid everyone on the side cover no matter how high the cost went because the money was going to your uncle anyway. I'm not going to sit here and argue with you man. I do wish your family the best and I hope you understand where WE are all coming from.

It's not that we wanted you to sell everything and give your every dime. It's very simple, the benefit was so you could keep you Banshee and raise the money you wanted out of your Banshee so you could still help your family. The benefit should have been canned when you sold the Banshee.

 

It's done and I'm done with this whole thing. Hopefully this garbage doesn't ruin the Haspin ride.

Like I had said, I def. understand what you're saying there, but I think where this all got messed up is people thinking the benefit was for "ME", and that was for sure not the case. It was strictly to help them out. I'm sorry that it was taken that way, no doubt about that. I 100% understand where everyone is coming from, especially when the econonmy is the way it is, people def. want to becareful with the money they spend. Since the beginning, I have had NO problem with not doing the benfit, and just the ride! Thats all good, I just want to make sure it's KNOWN I was not trying anyting "fishy" as it has been said. Know what I mean? I just want it to be known, I'm a stand up guy and would NEVER, EVER joke about something like that. Does that make sense bro?

 

As far as who has been PM'ing you these "stories", I would love for that person to PLEASE pm me, so I have some kind of idea what they are taking about, because I'd like to "know" what you "know"? It will be kept between me and you, in PM. Thanks!!

I'm in 100% agreeance with that. But when I sold it, I still thought you guys wanted to do it to help him, out and I guess thats where I was wrong. I even told T_shee, I'm trying hard to get another Banshee before the benefit so that It can go down. I honestly thought this was all about helping him out. And I do apologize about the misunderstanding man.

 

I hope I'm still wanted at the ride and etc. I dont care about the benefit, I care about BHQ, and having a great time with the members! I've been helping my family all I can..if that makes sense?

 

My only concern now is for people to know it was a simple mix up, and that I was not trying anything "fishy"...know what I mean?
