Did you buy another bike?
Nope - Stosh sold his bike to someone in Mass - so right near where I work is a good middle ground for them to meet. So I figured I'd I'd grab a beer and maybe a bite to eat with Stoshly and his GF tomorrow night.

IAB - wanna join us?

Seeing how it's 10 minutes from my house, I can't find a reason to say no (god knows I've been trying to think of one).

hey mmcg & mcgrp.........accidently found this, thought I'd share it w/ya

Haha - I thought about using the ND Leprechaun as an Avy a while ago - but someone else is using him in the DH forum - I think one of the Go-Ride.com guys.

Hey everybody! Still enjoying my nice Spring Break. :D

Yesterday I went riding on a local trail with some friends, for some reason we shuttled it even though it's easily climbable. Kind of strange shuttling it when I was on my AC :D Oh well, the shuttle road up to it is a tight 2 lane windy pass that turns into a loose dirt road with some tight areas in the rocks. That was fun because until yesterday I hadn't really taken my Blazer off road at all. Although it was funner in my friend's 80s 4banger Subie. :p

Not too sure what I'll do today, I think I'm gonna try to get some juice running in my 87 Mazda then go riding again or something. Who knows... :)

Hasn't been driven in probably 6 months, the battery's completely dead or won't provide any power, not sure if it'll hold a charge or not. Other than that it just needs a good tune up and to get the front ball joint replaced.

Good morning!
Went riding yesterday with Snacks (yay fun! finally rode the damned skinny!!)
Came home and finished laundry - only to find that my new blouse (bought specifically for its machine washability) now has blue streaks all over it????!!!! It's a bright red blouse :(,grrrr.
Making calls all over the US today, like every day. One thing that's fun about my job is really identifying the different categories of "people" around the states...
NorEasters (always reminds me of college) are very no-nonsense. Fast, get to the point, why ya callin? Oh ya! okay, let's schedule a time to talk...bye.
South-Easters (love the accents!) are always fun. I know more personal life stories from my southeastern customers, when someone retires or moves on I get calls from these guys to say good bye and stuff.
North Centrals (sometimes I'm reminded of Fargo) sometimes seem almost spacey, even though I know they're paying full attention. I have to curb my desire to talk fast to these folks and instead work on greasing my voice and making the calls smooth and catching their interest fast.
South Centrals (okay fine, TX), very friendly, most remember me, most enjoy the call, rarely get the follow-ups needed. So it takes 5 calls to complete 1 goal. hehehe
Californians...a category all unto themselves
PNW - well shoot, I'm from the same area, so we're all buddies :D

I can probably make 8! I'll have to leave work early - but how often does Stosh actually show up for something?!

Of course, I should probabaly not "count my chickens before they hatch."
Hey I'm selling my bike so I'm making some money, I'll be there!!! Thing is it will depend on the weather.
