have a safe trip!! :)
I heard Helga is shacking up with SacDuc and Polpetta for the winter.
TBJ wants to torture himself by riding her back across country next summer. [Dolph]
Don't understand what's going on here but the thought of riding my 999 across the country in the summer months makes me want to stock up on Advil and have my massage therapist follow me in her car. Along with having a portable AC unit straped to the back of the bike! [thumbsup] [Dolph] [bang]
Say high to Stu, but watch out for the Mousey one. ;D
Safe travels.
Yep, that is correct :)
Carl had the "chore" of taking out every once in a while [cheeky]
Our goomba has to come back and visit us!
I think the arrangements are his parents get him for a while but we get him for Holidays and vacations .... ok not Christmas because I love his mother and she would come out and kill me over that [laugh]
Woohoo!! Enjoy your grand adventure!!
It's gonna be epic ;D
[thumbsup]
p.s. if the road ahead turns to [bacon], please pull over and rest
p.p.s. don't forget the whimsy!
Gotta love the Pitbull stands riding shotgun [thumbsup]
Good luck and safe travels. Hope all is well

Safe travels TBJ...stay between the rumble strips!
What's the intended route map & eta?
Americans.
You're odd.
First you put the steering wheel on the wrong side of your vehicles....
... and then on the back of 'em it says "FRONT".
Weirdos [cheeky]
Safe trip TBJ [thumbsup]
sorry i gotta ask this stoopid question...
if tbj left the bikes in cali...
why are his bike stands ridin' shotgun? ???
have a safe trip ryan, and don't forget to shoot me a PM when you get to CT :)
He was returning the bike stand on his way out of town. He does have his little 50 with him ;)
sweet! at least he won't be bikeless [thumbsup] thanks polpetta :)
TBJ spent last night on my couch... We drank & cussed & played video games like 11 y.o.'s. (Basically b/c we are deep down...)
It will be hard to bid him adieu today, but I'm proud of the choices he's made & the path he's taking... Safe travels Buddy!!

Hey All!
Whimsey [bacon] Junkie here, posting on Duck-Stew's computer... Trying to post all the pics from my iPhone is a pain in the ass...
First of all, I want to thank Polpetta for putting up this thread. She and Sac Duc are two of the best friends a guy could have. Melissa, Carl, you're more than just friends, you're family. I miss the two of you, (and Fritzy-Pants, Jasper and BoBo too) already... :'(
Okay, so after leaving The Santa Barbara Shire, Whimsey and I headed down Highway 101:

Whimsey needs a scarf... He's a bit chilly.

[bacon] Junkie on Stew's computer again...
So, Sunday morning rolled around and I was able to stuff Whimsey in my coat pocket long enough to get in the truck and back on the road...
Whimsey the Bacon Boy says, " Bacon makes Cow taste better..!"

Fritzy is laying on your bed, I didn't have the heart to change the sheets yet so he could still have your scent.
Puppies are sending their big wet nose kisses [cheeky]
Bacon Junkie,
Safe travels. It was nice to have met you. Go take care of family and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays.
Ciao!
Looks like a whimsical time, Whimsey! [cheeky]

Great pics!
So, Sunday night in ABQ was great!
It was good to see Stu and Ro again...
Ro got me a beer, but guess what happened..? Yep... Whimsey.
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-134.jpg)
Whimsey wants to ride!
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-142.jpg)
Just hangin' out in Stu's garage...
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-135.jpg)
Stu, Ro, and I went out to dinner in Nob Hill. I got a "Dirty Cheeseburger".
It had 8! slices of bacon on it, chili verde, lots of cheese, chili con queso, frizzled onions, and a fried egg on top! It was friggin' HUGE!
Whimsey approves!
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-136.jpg)
I turn my head for one moment... WTF??!!!
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-141.jpg)
Hey! Let go of my beer!
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-137.jpg)
Whimsey tryin' to get that last little bit... [drink]
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-138.jpg)
After dinner Stu and I went to Starbucks.. [cheeky]
(http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp231/tazios/photo-140.jpg)
Safe travels!
Looks like a fun trip.
Where are you now? No one is Saint Louis to host you?
Hey Mary! [drink]
Thanks for all the well wishes everyone. [beer]
Update: I've made it to Kansas City, Missouri.
400+ miles of which were driven through fog.
I didn't even bother taking pics because I could barely see 100 yards in front of me.
So I slowed down to 75... [evil]
Whimsey slept most of the time in a bag of popcorn. ;D
Anyway, I've met up with my old friend Manuel in KC. I've know this kid since second grade.
We're gettin' drunk. ;D
By the way, Whimsey really likes Woodford's. 8)

Sorry for the confusion and bad title :o

No socks left behind... ;)
I left my favorite 999, though... :-\
It's good to be home. :)

Congrats, you made good time. [thumbsup]

Ryan,
You left your socks, jeans, shirt, sneakers...I just realized you forgot and I forgot to remind you to check your drawer [cheeky] also your 999 and stuff for when you move back (thank god) ;)
Glad you are home safe... and we miss you
Give Papa John a squeeze from me and Mary Lou a squeeze from Carl and puppies are sending their big wet nose kisses to you! (They are all washed and naked puppies) they are ready for their road trip tomorrow to their babies and Auntis!
Hope Mary Lou has a great birthday and you all have a great Christmas! XO
