  geeeze there Scott. I just turned 54 this month, I sure don't feel like an old guy :'( . OK I love old bikes, 750 GT's, but I am not sure I am quite ready for a rocking chair yet, though on the Bevelheads list some Splot owners (Beveldrive 750 Sport owners) have said that GT's are like comfortable chairs. To which I said "Fat bottomed girls make the rocking world go round" Splot owners are dying after 200 miles, my GT is good for 500 plus and I am not much worse for wear:) Tom Rolland

I sent Tom an email to see if he knows about this board of local Ducati freaks.  I doubt he does or he'd be here.  I should have thought of sending him a note earlier, but I guess it's better late than never.  Don't be surprised to see an old guy who loves GTs to show up here soon!

Yup, it shows up, Tom.

And, BTW, since DucMouse is about 12 (OK...Maybe 21....but still) you and I both qualify as "OLD".  Besides, anybody who quotes (or knows someone else is quoting) Queen lyrics MUST be old!   ;D

Never appeal to a man's "better nature."  He may not have one.  Invoking his self-interest gives you more leverage.  R.A. Heinlein
