I am jealous...damn't I gotta stay and work at the shop........and hey I'm in the busines and I would let Bryan and Phil build me a motor anytime.......we put Phil on some smokin black wheels, did some trick brake mods to Bryan's scoot, along with the trans on both, those trans tools arent cheap, and besides, we are buddies.....and buddies do for buddies...you know. Anyway you boys behave down there and have a big time......and get some hours on that scoot so we can see some burnout pics.....and just so you guys know.....we were so impressed with Bryan's bike...we rode it back and forth up the street till we ran out of fuel....not that Bryan left us more than a half gallon in it when he brought it to us...lol......we had to put some race fuel in it to load it on the trailer........

We got 2' of snow on Valentine's day and just got 6" more last night and now we have sleet and freezing rain which is going to turn back over to snow with 6+" more tonight [:@] But hey, I saved a boatload switching to Geico (oh wait, meant to say I got my VPC in the mail today )

We got about 6" of snow, then it all changed over to rain around noon, and continued raining all afternoon. It is a mess, can't even snowblow this crap.......had to call on a favor from a buddy with a plow truck.
