Title: MGvaleri passed
Post by: Sgt Mac on June 02, 2014, 11:44:58 PM

Didn't see it posted here yet.

Never had the chance to meet him but have seen him in passing. I should have sent him a message and offered to meet for a ride, something I will regret not doing, he seemed quite the character.

There is an empty spot here on earth.  Sad news.  I'm going to miss his postings, extremely talented and gifted rider.

Sure hope St Pete has a bench, tools, and a video camera handy.

R.I.P. MG, I already miss you.

Oh man, that's sad. I wonder what happened. I really enjoyed his videos, even all the center stand ones. RIP MGvaleri :'(

I read elsewhere, it was NOT a motorcycle related incident.  Not that it helps, but shows we are ALL in a fatal state and must live everyday, simple existence is what the dinosaurs did, see how they turned out?

Think I'm going to figure out how to wire my GS footpegs  for my Gerbings..

In one respect it's sad...on another he rode and was active right to the end.

You know, I've been thinking about him since this post appeared.  I pride our boards (C14) on having quite a few 'characters'.  I also say characters welcome here.  Our boards are what they are because of these characters.  It's a very sad day indeed when we lose one of them for whatever reason.  We'll miss you MG, the Italian Mcgyver.  8)

Is there anyway to archive MG's videos?

Damn, he's got a bunch.... https://www.youtube.com/user/valerio5284/videos (https://www.youtube.com/user/valerio5284/videos)

Assuming that they can be downloaded, yes.  I use Savefrom.net helper.  It's an extension off Firefox.  I actually tried the first one I came to and it worked but I had to stop watching/listening to it... :'(

Enjoy the company of your friends and revel in what they do and as Warren Zevon once said....'Enjoy every sandwich.'
