Somebody is up to something (aka Trucker's donation thread)
 

looks like a few forum members have been up to something, im not sure who, but ill find out tomorrow.

Im not sure why you guys are so nice to me, im just a stupid kid.

?

I'm taking a wild guess here, but has someone been fundraising for knee surgery? That's all I can come up with.

Maybe it's because you give back to the community, whether you realize it or not?

Whatever it is, we want pics or video!

there apparently will be pics. you guys are up to something, not sure what though.

Thank you in advance

A hearty thanks to all who participated!
 

Well, I was able to get w/ Truck tonite. :D

I've never actually SEEN anyone poleaxed dumbstruck before, lol! :shock:

The visual of *speechless* is something to see. :noevil:

I thank everyone who pitched in and especially Greg Nemish (excessive post count manipulator Mod Hawkrider) who coordinated everything. :kneel:

Pics to come. :cheers:

Trucker, from all of us here at Superhawkforum.com, we hope that you get well soon!

I wasn't in on this, whatever it is, but don't underestimate yourself. Most guys your age don't even know which end of a screwdriver to grab on to.

Is that the thingy that goes with vodka and a glass?

It's apparent that some of the forum isn't fully up to speed here.

On 5/20 I set up a Paypal donation account to get Trucker knee surgery. I emailed all the forum members the link to the donation (had to temporarily ban Trucker for this :mrgreen:). I used the email addresses that you have registered with the forum. If you were not included I apologize. Over the course of a month, after Paypal fees, we raised $1343.85. Jack (linearraynut) was kind enough to deliver the check to him personally this evening since he's local.

Pics are coming. Jack's sending them and I have to resize them first.

I wish I would have known about this. I would have been more than happy to contribute to this worthy cause.

I had no clue. Would have thrown a few bones. Aint got much but im always willing to help out.

I doubt it's too late. I'm sure his bills will come to more than we raised.

Here's pics from this evening...

Oh, and Trucker, don't be so fukkin scarce around here as you have been lately! Rumor is the VTR is mostly complete. Time to update your thread!

Honestly Im still speechless. Im not even sure what to think.

I appreciate this more than you can you can comprehend.

Everyone on this forum has been more than friendly to me, and thats rare these days.
My dad still cant understand how ive got friends that ive never officially "met"

For someone to go out of their way for an individual whome they have never met is a truly caring action.

You guys are the best, and there is no way around it.

A HUGE thank you to Greg for his outstanding Moderation and caring of his forum members.

Thank you Jack for finally tracking me down, I know its not easy. We will get those CCT's in soon.

And also a big thank you to everyone on this forum and reading this, especially everyone who contributed.

Its amazing to see how something like a motorcycle can bring people together.

This is definitely a special forum! Hope you heal up fast!

Truck, it's not much to each of us... But put together it might make a difference to one of us... And that's really all there is to it... One of us...;)

Tell your dad that if he thinks about it it's not that strange really... We ride... And riders stick together...:)
And you don't leave a fellow rider stranded... Be it by the roadside or layed up with a bum knee...

I dont know how old you are or what your situation is, but if I had your skills, talent and initiative when I was your age, my life would have, certainly, been more prosperous. To have done what you have with a bum knee is worth my 5 bucks. I have seen stupid kids, you're not one of them! :headbang: ROCK ON BRO!

For your skills we should all :kneelking:

Glad to help out a fellow Superhawk owner Truc....

Very happy with the CCTs I picked up from you a while back as well, keep up the good work and I hope you heal up quick!

Trucker, I'm glad to have been a part of this and hope you get fixed up soon:)

This forum rocks and a big thanks to Greg:kneel:

Happy to do it.

I hope it helps you to get it fixed up and back in the saddle.

Good luck!

Well, I was told that you were gonna take a grand tour on the modhawk in order to give those who donated a spin. That's the deal, right? ;)

I hope you are burning rubber soon!

If so he'll need waterwings and a bigger tank... Sweden is a bit far away...;)

@Linearray - Ed McMahon would have been proud of your check presentation skills.

Truck your really talented man and good talent doesn't need to be discouraged by a bum knee. You remind me of a friend who does all the behind the scene fabrication work for the show Extreme 4x4. Just a good guy with great talent. You never know where you'll end up when you work hard and keep creating. I've really enjoyed your build thread and when your back up to speed I'll be placing orders for CCT's, braces, or whatever cool stuff you've come up with.

Keep truckin...

lol!

Hey Truck, that's a wicked looking knee brace you got. Looks like it may even have some carbon fiber in it. Just wanted to say, good luck to a quick recovery & no one with the talent you have should think of theirselfs as "just a stupid kid" Best of luck to you!

I wish I knew about this, would have donate some money. I hope you have a speedy recovery!!

If my original email addy hadnt changed, I would have gotten the email like the rest.
But, I will be sure to buy some of your stuff when the time comes.
Best wishes on the recovery, and dont let anything get you down bro.

Good luck with your knee Trucker.
