    My mentor in Hall of Fame

    Dave Hough to be inducted

    Dave wrote the Proficient Motorcycling column for MCN before I took it on (he recruited and trained me), and wrote the popular PM books.

    I'm hoping to get to Vegas in December to attend.

    Wow....congrats to him.

    Nice to see the HoF inducting someone who has contributed so much but not for his riding fame/skill.

    Ken, you have to make that trip!!

    That's great! Congrats to David.

    I had the chance to meet him a week or so ago at a rally. What an amazing man with a wealth of knowledge.

    Wouldn't that be nice!

    Realistically, it took several years of effort to finally get Dave recognized. And he was a real innovator. I'm more or less walking in his shadow. Although, I hope my contributions do make a difference.

    Your contributions do make a difference. You've got the ability to teach in an un-intimidating and easy-to-understand manner.
