Ben was a member of this group in the past.  Don't know if he still is.  I recently heard that Ben was a great trials rider, but I didn't know he had cystic fibrosis.

Ben's dad, Jim, is a serious motorcyclist as well.  He once rode his SR500 thumper over 1500 miles in 24 hours, and he completed the Canada-to-Mexico ride (more than 1600 miles) on that same bike, although I don't remember whether he did it in 24 hours or 36.

Great story, Vince.  Thanks for the link!
