I'm in Lubbock and I was watching that fire on TV and thinking of how bad that would suck. I'm sorry bro, I hope the best for you and at least your family is ok.

If you house is ok, how did it get your glide? Just curious.

Thats too bad, but at least you and yours are safe.

The bike can be replaced, your lives can't.
