Pullstart 63,054 #1 Posted September 30 Today would have been @Stormin Norman’s birthday. It sure is a different Red Square without his Brit wit, joking manner and road rally posts… 4 1 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mickwhitt 4,702 #4 Posted September 30 I think of Norm too, never met him but felt I knew him through this fine institution. Makes me sad to think of fine folk like him passing. Time is cruel. 1 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,841 #5 Posted September 30 Norm was Special People. We would talk for hours on Skype. I learned a lot about England and their customs. We just happened to be on Skype on January 6th a few years ago on the day the Capital got stormed. I pointed my Skype camera toward the TV so Norm could watch it with me. We watched and chatted during that whole afternoon. To be able to watch that "Live" from England with Norm is something that will stay with me as long as I live. It was an unbelievable experience. Rest in Peace my Friend. 3 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ranger 1,759 #8 Posted October 1 (edited) Norm may no longer be with us in body, but his memory will always remain with those who knew him. God bless you Norman. Rest in Peace mate!

ACman 7,618 #9 Posted October 1 I sure do miss having him around here and our Skype chats . I think of him often as he was the definition of a gear head. Not to many people have the stones to race a 1000 cc bike around the Isle of Man TT . R.I.P. Norm 1 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
