So very sorry to hear of your loss, if there is anything I or a group of us can help with, just send out the word, I know you would help any of us if you could. You have been generous to the area riders and I hope we can help in some way.

Sorry for your loss. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know.

Oredenbacher · 10-11-2012, 10:01 AM

This is Cara, Hank.SD's wife. We've managed to work a "mail/ship to" address out of the Biker4evers.

If you'd like the address, please PM me.

If you are reading this Bikergirl4ever, sorry for my trickery - but I had to do it! Love you guys!

biker4ever · 10-14-2012, 05:03 PM

Thank You everyone for your support. That is what we are most in need of.
We finally bought another computer and made it to a free wifi place. Everyone including the dog are doing well. So far so good with the insurance, we will see if we say the same thing when it is all done. We appreciate all the offers and will keep them in mind. We hope to have this one built by others but if we cant we will definately call for help.
Hopefully all goes well and we will have some more motorcycles soon. Jason & Cara have so graciously offered us some of theirs. The responses and offers from everyone has been so beyond anything we could have imagined. We have such awesome friends.

We are extremely blessed to have all of you in our lives.
If anyone has any pictures from previous rides, we sure could use some copies.
(P.S. The spring ride is still on)

I got some bikes to if you need them. You might have a good time playing with the Hayabusa. But not in the dirt.

JohnnieWalker · 10-14-2012, 06:35 PM

PS I am really glad to here your Doberman is OK. She is such a Sweet girl. I didn't know how to ask in case it was bad news. But all is good now.

Mnrider2 · 10-15-2012, 08:16 AM

So sorry to hear this I truly hope everyone is OK.
Best wishes during this tough time.

Hipster · 10-15-2012, 09:07 AM

Lance, sorry to hear about the fire. I'm glad you guys weren't hurt.

Unstable Rider · 10-18-2012, 07:04 AM

Prayers and condolences.

I have heard stories of the generosities you have extended to others, repeatedly.

Sad to hear when unfortunate things happen to the nicest people.

bikergirl4ever · 11-02-2012, 04:05 AM

Thank You everyone
Cara I forgive you. Thank you for all you and Jason have done.
Thank You to everyone who has sent anything and for all the offers of help and all the support.
Right now we are living in the shop, its not ideal but it works. It still feels better being at home rather than staying somewhere else. This weekend we are going to go looking for a toyhauler to live in. Clean up started this week. We are almost done with house plans so we will be getting bids in the next few weeks and hopefully get a shell up before winter so we can be working in there when it is cold.
We still have lots of lawn and shop space for everyone who comes to the spring ride. We are going to have a busy spring finding routes. That will be a good exuse to put miles on the new bikes.
So far we are looking for a WR450F and maybe a WR250F(Lance thinks thats what I want, we'll see). We are not sure on all the others. We really liked the BMW's so we will probably go with them again. If anyone knows of any please let us know.
Thank You so much for everything.
Lance & Sheri

This is what is left of the house, garage and motorcycles. You can see whats left of them in this picture.

House clean up is going well.

picking up the new house on Sat.

arrowhead rider · 11-08-2012, 07:28 PM

Those fire pictures are tough to look at! I really like the new toy hauler though!

toadl · 11-09-2012, 08:24 PM

I can't imagine what it was like coming down your driveway and seeing that for the very first time.

I don't mean to be insensitive, but Duffer mentioned a picture of Lance's bike pretty much melted to a puddle. I'm just kind of curious what happens to a bike with a lot of aluminum parts in a fire.

Glad to see you guys looking forward.

bikergirl4ever · 12-02-2012, 06:37 PM

Here is the start of the new bikes.

The first picture of the fire that I posted is a picture of the 6 motorcycles. You can hardly tell it is motorcycles.
