Default HD Forum Appreciation Week

Never realized how much I appreciate HD Forum until the last couple of days of server-related issues. Took a look at a couple of other forums during that time and they were bland and boring compared to HDF. Just wanted to say thanks to HD Forum, and looking forward to the return of normal server operations.

Wonder if I can glue the pieces back together?

Glad things are back to normal, or better. Thanks HDF gurus.
Gotta follow the Adventures of the Florida Crew Rally.

And yes Its running faster that it has been for quite a while...

I also went to one of the other fourms that I haven't been on in yrs. Made me really appreciate what this one is and proved again why I choose HDF over all the others..

Every once and a while our bikes need to spend some down time in the garage for what ever reasons. Some minor, some are a PITA.

Servers are no different.
