BDF
« on: November 13, 2022, 07:11:17 AM »
I just read on the other  forum of the passing of one of our friends, Brian Felice.  Brain was one of the great contributers to both forums over the years and his electrical devices have been a great resource for Concours 14 riders. I had the pleasure of Meeting Brian and his wife Andrea during a ride to New England back in 2012. One of the smartest and nicest guys I have ever met.  Rest In Peace Brian.

I’m very sorry to hear of Brian’s passing.  I purchased his fuel light eliminator and was able to successfully install my Rostra cruise control based on his tutorial.  His knowledge and humor will be missed.  RIP

I'm in total shock.  One of the nicest people I knew.  He will be missed.  So sorry for his family.  I think he was living in the Northern VA area to be close to his son.   :'(

Eeeew.
My eyes are so screwed up now, I thought that said "Brian and Kitty", and clicked on it for a zoom.

I just saw his obituary posted on the Facebook site last night. I hadn't yet heard. I am in total shock. Brian was a fantastic guy and contributed so much. His expertise and information, along with his humor will be missed.

Thanks.  What saddens me the most is that he was only a couple of hours away from me and we never met... :'(

I know what you mean. I wanted to meet up with him as well. I am farther away than that, but wanted to ride and meet him.

Note that there is a Memorial Wall at the Funeral Home.  If you want to say some words about him then please do.  I think that Andrea would appreciate the support.  I'd really like to do something bike related in his honor here in Virginia or rides elsewhere if someone has some ideas on that.
