He should be at Willow...I know that's where he said he was headed from Sears Point.

That's weird, I just looked at the list the other day and most of it was covered & now it's showing that everything is still needed, lol. Probably just an error when he was updating it.

I wonder if it's his insurance? I don't know. I just saw his trailer that he is rebuilding. They forked up all the insides. And I noticed he didn't have his usual set-up. At this point, I don't ask too much anymore. I think he's starting to tire of it. (You know how that is, I'm sure)

There's a raffle on BARF for a Laguna track day for him. I'll probably buy a few tickets.

You could be correct on the insurance, but they should pay regardless if he has been receiving donations I would think.

Damn right! But, they were screwing him. That's why he has said he was going to do a write-up about how NOT to get screwed by your insurance. That was BEFORE anyone started donating, I believe.

If you have any questions, you can get a hold of Eddy at Finishes Unlimted Racing

He is sponsored by Dave and is helping get all this done (and a former TLR owner/racer, so an all round good guy)

Man my ears were burning

First off, thank you everyone for passing along Dave's info, we need to keep it fresh in everyones minds. 2nd thanks for any donations you have sent Dave's way.

We are trying our best to keep the website updated, that being said we had a small snafu unfortunatly and the list was shortened over the weekend. Also it got to confusing to read we were having complaints. So instead of writing next to the item who donated we're trying to write it up top. That means everything listed below what has been donated IS STILL NEEDED. Feel The Track! trackside support, price list, private testing

Within the next couple days I'll be starting a raffle to benifit dave so far I have 5 trackdays and a set of 208gpa's and still gathering goods. I'll try to keep you guys updated!

All,

Again thanks to Eddy and Zip for coordinating this effort.

Yesterday was a long difficult day in the trailer. The thieves had first tried
to rip the cabinets out of the wall and floor and then gave up. It took a lot of
effort to secure the frame back in place, but that is done. They tried to then
tear the vices out of the counter top and failed and consequently started to
unbolt the vices, but for whatever reason they only took a couple of the bolts
out and then decided to stop, so they must have been disturbed.

All wall fittings were taken out with what looks like a crowbar but they could
have used that on the cabinets, so I am not sure what they did there.

Getting rid of all the finger print dust took hours, so here's some helpfull
hints if it happens to you. Wipe everything down with a shop towel that is dry
first and wear latex gloves and clothes that you don't care about. Once
everything has been wiped down you will need a dry kitchen sponge and some
softscrub and use it sparingly so you don't add a lot of scratches in the
surface. Once you are done with the soft scrub use 409 all purpose cleaner, and
everything comes back looking much better. Make sure you get all the soft scrub
out though!

Still no calls from the insurance - 6 calls on 6 bsuiness days, all logged. This
is absurd. I will be trying a different method on Monday and find a way to get
to another person.

I have managed to get some receipts together, but the total is miniscule. I
believe that emails from the community as 'affadavits' will provide substantive
proof along with the photographs of the pits at Sears that I did actually own
these possessions, but unfortunately no-one has a picture of the inside of the
trailer to prove that the black Kobalt tool box was there. The emails will be
critical, but I will wait until I need them before asking.

Donations have started to arrive, so I will spend today opening boxes and
consolidatig lists. Again, 'thank you' is such an inadequate phrase and I am
sincerely appreciative to everyone that has been so supportive in a multitude of
ways. Without your help and support, it would have taken months to become
remotely operational. You should all give each other a pat on the back and a big
smile! Times like these are what should be in the local news media for the
public to show how warm hearted and caring motorcyclists are.

Many riding groups have expressed interest in getting members together for
seminars, both the hands on type and the more theory based lecture type of
experience. Many have asked if I can do that on an evening at a predetermined
location, after a track day or during a lunch time, and this is certainly
possible. I will try to get this opportnity into the calendar, as I will only be
doing 200 days at the track this year. This is the least I can do to give back
to everyone.

As a result of this experience, I have written a 5 page article on how to
protect what you have, from something as easy as taking pictures through to a
thorough inventory undertaking. This will be finished late today and will be
sent out via Eddy to all the groups and then to other publications such as
Roadracing World, Friction Zone, City Bike etc. If anyone wants to move this
article to other publications, please do so. Theer's no intellectual property
here - just a way for someone not to go through everything I am.

The consolidated 07 calendar will up in the next few days. This will be the
final draft so for those wanting to check my schedule to coordinate with me,
this is pretty much in stone.

Thank you again to everyone. This generosity and caring has been profoundly
moving and motivating at times where I am angry and despondant. I really hope we
catch these people and they get what they deserve. Life in a rugby game facing
the motorcycle community as opposition.

Dave

A message from Dave Moss January 30th
All,
A continued heartfelt thanks to you all for all the words of support and
donations. I have next week to rebuild the contents of the trailer and look to
be fully operational by 2/12 in providing all the services I normally can to any
rider.
I have sent Eddy a document created to help all of you protect what you have and
how to have much greater odds of recovering items taken. It has taken a while to
create but it gives you all the lessons I have learned and provides easy and
simple ways for you to get through the process a lot more quickly, purposefully
and with positive energy. If we can all help each other, then perhaps we can
quickly catch the people responsible and get justice dispensed correctly so
these !#$%^ are off the streets.
The 2007 schedule is now posted, so for those looking for help at track days you
can see where I will be. Remember, if you are not riding that day you can still
come along and get the bike set up!
To date, no recovery and no items seen on Craig's List or ebay. Good news - one
rider had almost all his missing items returned to him recently and the ring
responsible for thefts is mostly in custody. Score one for the good guys!
Many thanks and I hope the article gets you motivated to protect what you have!
Dave
