He is talking about Pilot1996! That's me!

I was in Jacksonville, NC for a couple of days and got to meet Mike. He's got as many toys as you could want and is also a super guy. I wish I had taken my camera there for the bike nite, they had a couple of really nice ones.

Hooters is always a joy to go to. Word of warning for the rest of you, when Mike says he doesn't like Hooters wings, go ahead and order the 50 count anyway like I did!

Great time, and thanks for letting me ride a REAL MAN's Bike!

I'm getting all weepee here, about your meeting.

Truth be told, I wished I was there to meet you both! Hopefully this summer.

Pilot,

After Mike's association with Ritz crackers, I'm not sure what you might be referring to as toys. Just Kidding, Mike and I plan on meeting at Myrtle next week and gee you have spoiled my first impression. Now I know he's a super guy and thanks on the heads up on the wings, I will pack a little extra cash.

On another note Pilot when you make your trip to Myrtle if you're going to be coming any where near the area of Chattanooga, I would like to meet you as well, maybe ride Deal's Gap, you have just got to ride it once and carry a T-shirt back with you.

John,

Thanks for the offer. The fecking Marine Corps is boning me out of some leave due to other commitments. As a result, I can't leave soon enough to get there in time for my commitment with the other people...so I'm going to fly.

I will make that trip eventually, just not this year. So my plans are to got to Grand Canyon and perhaps Colorado the second/third week of July.

Mac,

If you do the Colorado trip and come anywhere close to Bloomfield, NM be sure and look me up. Also keep in mind a Labor Day weekend trip to Tombstone if you can.

Regards,

Bill
