Yeah, I have a list of "to-do" things to make the bike legal again (Headlight, etc...)

And then it's just back to weekends I don't have the guys wt:

I'll be ready to join the US crew in a few weeks - need to do the whole "back on the horse" ride before I follow you nuts through Hellenback :e:v

I think I'm good to go!

GLantern hooked me up with new bars ( be:: to you dude!)
I bought a light and brackets from a dude on the other board.
That'll get the bike legal.

Then it's
Tail chop - have the cookie kit - and primer and paint.
new blinkers all around - have em - and have resistors.

Oh yeah, need to get to Camrod to get a new helmet, too! :bang

Couple of weeks, tops, until I'm riding with you all again.  Like I said above - need to do the ole "back in the saddle" ride before I do anything serious.

Thanks again for all your support everyone.  I've had a rough couple of weeks and vented some deep thoughts out on the interwebs.  It's all good now.

Great!  I'll go with you for your "back in the saddle" ride if you want.  Is Nick putting the headlight and bar for you or are you trailering the bike home?

Howie, Thanks!  May take you up on that ride offer!

Need to see if AAA will help me this time.  At the crash site, no company contracted to AAA could come into a state park because none of them had some kind of special permit. :bang :bang

VERY important to know if you have some sort of emergency service ;)

T- that's really great news! Can't wait to have you out with U.S. (pun intended) again! As the "Bad luck and stupidity" thread will asset, we take care of each other and don't leave another rider behind, sort of like the marines so you don't have a thing to worry about. Fun is what it's all about, not racing. I still think you and Dizz make a great pairing although he did manage to up his game - instead of waiting 2 - 4 minutes, we're waiting ~15 seconds. Regardless, it'll be nice to have an adult out again. :)

HEY! >:(   I may have graying, thinning hair and children, but that in no way makes me an "adult!"

(actually, that and the fact I don't play your hooligan games does make me the adult of the group) mo:t:

I'm a 61 year old granpa and haven't grown up yet.

I don't play hooligan games either, does that make me old too?
