Lost a close friend
« on: April 02, 2012, 07:27:05 PM »
I just found out my close friend William "Wild Bill" McAfoose 62 years old was killed yesterday. Bill was on his way home and clipped a semi on I-75 yesterday evening. Bill did not make it. I first meet Wild bill when I moved back to Kentucky in 99. Bill lived in San Deigo along time. We had California in common and often talked foundly about it wondering why we were in kentucky. Bill had full dressers and choppers and several Heritage softails. I rode and partied with Bill many times! I could not tell you how many wild nights we had at the bar together! He lived just up the street from me and always pulled in the driveway to talk anytime he saw us out there when he was riding by including my mom or dad. I just ran into him a couple times at Starbucks in the morning last week! Man it seems unreal to me he is gone. Speculation is he tried to make a last minute exit and clipped the truck. Everybody please be safe out there and give them big trucks lots of room! 

R.I.P. Wild Bill  -  I miss you already Faceracer!

My condolences to you and to his family. It does seem weird for such a sudden death. Lost a friend of mine a couple of weeks ago.
