Hi Bob,
yea we know this shaking problem and not just with BMWs.
We have actually solved it as well. If you put a Harmony Phone Chip on each of the shocks it will stabilise them, eliminate most of the oscillations and give you at least another 20 m.p.h.
If you want to do some tests and put an honest appraisal on your site I'd be glad to send you a set of chips.

You will discover that there are also other safety enhancements with this technology.

Listen to the comments from the NASCAR racers on the harmonyautomotive site.

Best regards

I am a female businesswoman that has used GoDaddy for many years. I started before you had the GoDaddy girl. I really don't think she is necessary to sell your products because GoDaddy does a great job without her. I like both men and women to be attractive but if you're going to have a GoDaddy girl, why don't you realize some of the people paying for your services are women and have a GoDaddy boy too? I've tried other hosts and have HATED them because their customer support doesn't have a clue how to answer my question and don't even seem to care. GoDaddy on the other hand cares and the support people seem very knowledgeable. I appreciate that. I rarely need support but when I do yours is second to none and therefore I won't change to anywhere else. HOWEVER, please consider my plea and either have a male model or none at all to be fair to your women clientele.

I am really getting sick and tired of companies always picking the playboy girls as hot picks to promote a company. Why not pick a beauty queen with a state title that promotes old fashion family values instead or a hot model that would like to break into the business that has beared all to the world.

Playboy gives a message to the younger girls that you have to take off your cloths to get anywhere in this life to be successful - especially if you want to make a living in the entertainment industry.

I'm a hot model and I'm just getting sick and tired of being passed up because I WON'T take off my cloths.

I would hope the main reason you survived was that you were riding 2 seconds or more behind the vehicle in front. Sadly on UK roads very very few drivers leave a space in front of them, choosing instead to tailgate at high speed. I can only laugh when I hear of multiple pile ups on English motorways because it is clear that only two vehicles need have been involved.

Cycling is different due to the size of the vehicle and for the greater part cycling is very risky as it is the only thing that comes of worse between a motor vehicle and a cycle. Your quick reactions stopped you from hitting the vehicle and for that I say good on you. Thanks for your story, your experience (particularly when it comes to wearing quality gear) will no doubt help other motor cycle riders.

And wow Amanda looks good in her godaddy swimsuit!

I was really reluctant to purchase domains from you guys given your tasteless marketing. I mean, if you've really got the infrastructure and services that matter, why do you need to rely on objectifying women to sell your stuff? I was kind of hoping it would die down - that the market wouldn't support it, especially since many businesses are now buying your services and it's wholly inappropriate for most of them. But now I see you have a "new" babe...how disappointing. I'll be switching providers when my current contracts expire. I'm all for freedom of expression, but it may be time to realize that many of your potential customers are women, and few of us are likely to support such sexist marketing...

Hi Bob!

I wanted to know how one would go about becoming a Go Daddy Girl. I know PLENTY of beautiful models and know that some of them would make FAB Go Daddy Girls!

Sincerely,

M.

I need an e-comerce programer so I can spend more time riding!
Don't need a fast bike in Hawaii, not enough roads!

Okay, Bob, let's get with the century. What's with these 'Godaddy Girls'? The least you could do is alternate with some 'Godaddy Dudes' as well!

Hey Bob!
be careful while driving.. i saved my butt too many times while racing..

If I got chance may be we will race together

Have fun!

JOJY

MAN!

I am guessing you don't pick girls for their looks!

But, glad you're OK.

You wealthy guys just don't have much to do other than risk your lives, do you?

Can you help me get to that position?

The GoDaddy girls just make the company look like a sad midlife crisis. I appreciate beauty but cheesy is just tacky.

Dear Bob,

We make a double thick Stonewashed Motorcycle Jean with Knee pads, 3M reflective Trim and a "Gusset Crotch" as you seem to have the "Big K——a's" We would be more than happy to send you a pair to try.

I've heard great things about the reliability of GoDaddy products and have considered further use for my company's website. HOWEVER, now that I've seen your website and your post about the new 'GoDaddy Girl', you've lost my business forever... and I'll be advising everyone I know AGAINST using GoDaddy for anything. Using scantily clad women to sell any product is bad enough - demeaning to all of us, men and women alike. It is especially inappropriate for this time of business. What in the world are your marketing people thinking?!?! Does everyone at GoDaddy keep their brains in their pants?

Hi Bob,

It warms my heart to see a man of influence like your self wearing the correct gear when riding your 'DUC.

As Bob found out, we bikers must maintain complete awareness and focus on the traffic around us when riding our machines.

It only takes a few seconds to turn a great ride on a nice day, into into a mess of road rash and pain....or worse.

When I was a young and inexperienced rider I once ran into a Great Dane (or he ran into me, it happened pretty fast) and ended up dinged up pretty good because of not wearing my gear.

Thankfully I had a full faced helmet, so I'm still a handsome devil....LOL.

However, it was very hot and humid and I had taken off my leather jacket, so the open sleeveless vest and running shoes did not stand up to the road rash test.

I did walk away, or limp away, my left running shoe blew wide open on impact, and my big toenail was ripped off my toe.

Ankle was badly sprained,and major road rash was all over my chest and right forearm.

Took the nurse about an hour to remove the gravel embedded in my skin.

Oh....the dog was ok, he took off for home after the accident.

Ended up with scraped side cover, bent handlebar and broken mirror on the bike.

Too make a long story short, from that day on, if I'm on the street, track or dirt.....I always wear all my gear!

Full Leathers, boots, gloves, full face helmet, for street rides.

Full MX gear for trail rides on my 250 CC 4 stroke off road bike.

Have fun out there guys and gals.....

"Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up!"

Hey Bob,
Glad to hear you're OK man. I just hate that stretch on the 101...actually I despise riding around most of this city. Very few people seem to understand the purpose of the left lane around here, or turn signals, or how to drive in general.

Great choices in sponsoring Amanda Beard and CJ, by the way.

P.S. I'd be your wing man anyday...if I could keep up with your bike.

Ride on,
Hutch

Hi Bob,

When I read many of the comments people make on your blog I think to myself, [ REMOVED BY MODERATOR ]. You sure are lucky you have me around to keep you grounded.

Can you please tell us why you have this fascination with risky behaviour? You keep doing really stupid, risky things and eventually your luck is going to run out. It would be a real pisser to kill yourself racing around on a motorcycle or get stomped on by an elephant before you have had a chance to waste all of your money. You should talk to your psychiatrist about this behaviour.


Your Friend,

Bobb Cobb

Bob, I wanted to say thanks for being a true patron to the people and taking over the RegisterFly accounts. I was literally screwed by RegisterFly and when I found out GoDaddy took over the accounts I let off a huge sigh of relief.

Thanks
A-ron

Bob,

I just bought my first two domains and really excited!

I saw some slogan ideas and here's one from me;


What a Way!
Go find it,
Go buy it,
GO DADDY today!

Well, good luck!

sigh

Bob, I love your products, but I could really do without the chicks. They're lovely and easy on the eyes, but so is Mrs. Andy. Why do I have to be subjected to these gals every time I want to come buy a new domain name?

You're a good man, Bob, and I appreciate your company. But maybe you should let the babes be "handled" by the peddlers of things skin, a class much beneath your own.


Andy

It was refreshing this morning to come to your site and see the image of the scantily clad women was removed. I have many accounts with you and almost all of my clients have a problem with this type of marketing and image which you portray. I stay with you because of the solid infrastructure that you have, but with pressure from my clients I would have to take the business elsewhere.

Please keep us business people in mind as you place images and content on your site.

Thanks.

My Slogan:

Wow! Amanda Beard...fantastic! Now that is a Go Daddy girl! Great looking and insanely talented, very nice choice. Will she do the next SuperBowl commercial? I personally would LOVE that!
Great job Amanda! Go USA Bejiing 08!!!

Glad you walked away from it, Bob. My dad was a CHP motorcycle cop for 18 years and he always told me that there are 2 kinds of motorcycle riders; those that have crashed and those that lie. Ain't it the truth!

Get hold of me when you get a new bike and I'll set you up with some protection for that to match the good stuff you're putting on your bod. Stay safe.

Hi Bob,

When my kids fell from some low tree limb or came home with a boo-boo, after consoling them I'd say to my wife something like: "any injury that doesn't kill or cripple is damn educational (and may reduce the likelihood of a fatal one later.)" Preachy? Pedantic? Maybe.

But I've made it to a ripe old age despite doing lots of allegedly "dangerous" things (pro motorcycle racing, riding through the Andes, ocean windsurfing, etc) and have learned that even though ATGATT is a good idea, the most important piece of safety equipment is not a helmet: it's what's inside it: your attitude. And your training and riding habits.

Riding a motorcycle is great fun but it's similar to flying a plane, in terms of its unforgivingness. And there are more nutty drivers on land than in the air.

Bob, if you haven't yet done so, please do yourself a favor and take a high-performance motorcycle riding school. Among other life-saving lessons, learning how to apply max brakes without high-siding can save your butt.

There are lots of good schools. Freddie Spencer has a good one near AZ in Las Vegas. Say hi for me; I used to help sponsor him.

Bill

Mr. Parsons,

I read the article about the Ducati,

Guys like you aren't a dime a dozen. employers like GoDaddy are a sweet fragrance in the world, and in the presence of God.

And a billion dollars is a rough league, and not the best cast of characters

Be Careful. you have no idea how bad you would be missed.

Be well,

Patrick Hurley

Glad your ok Bob

ATGATT (all the gear all the time) is the only way to go. That also saved me last year during an accident. I came around a bend in the road and traffic was at a dead stop. I didn't have enough time or braking. I grazed the car trying to bail around it and got pitched over the top in a classic highside. I walked away after landing face first. Some strained ligaments, bumps and bruises was all. It could have been so much worse.

Speed safe

I'm really disliking the 101 more and more here first you and then this past Thursday (10/4) my husband (he works for you) was in an accident on the 101 also! He wasn't as lucky as you he has been in Scottsdale Osborn but thank goodness you wore a helmet!

Excellent choice with Amanda Beard by the way she is now my favorite GoDaddy girl!

Hey Bob —

First of all, I'm very glad you're ok. What a scary experience.

I'm wondering why you're ignoring all us straight females out here in GoDaddy land. Why can't we have a steaming hot guy? Why do you men get all the fun? Isn't it about time you equalized things?

Tery

Thanks Bob!

I'm a young guy starting an Internet company. I'm looking to buy my first motorcycle, but figured I'd probably ride without much gear in the summer. After reading your story, I'll be sure to have all my gear on all the time! Doing an image search for "road rash" really backs up that position too

Maybe you saved my skin,

Jeremy

WOW! What a great opportunity for Amanda — maybe with all the extra dough you are paying her to be a GoDaddy spokeswoman, she can get an awesome boo*b job!
