PocoCJ,
I just wanted to say thanks for the awesome response you put up on the VTXOA. I hope that ends this and everyone can move forward. As for your needing a hand in your shop......well.... I'm in N. Jersey so it might take a while before I get there. I drink Black Cherry soda so that might help get me there faster.

Later

John R.
Hmm, Black Cherry soda? Might be able to scrounge some up somewhere.

Skip,

I after reading what John R. wrote you, my curiousity was peaked, so I went and read the thread. 6 pages later, while helping my 8th grade daughter with her algebra (not sure which is harder, but lemme tell you the algebra is nothing to sneeze at), I was amazed.

You were an ambassador of this board whether you wanted to be or not. You spoke it in a way I never could have, and you did it with the flair that you normally have when you post here. It's a pleasure to "chat" witcha...and I'm glad to have you around.

I'm not going to post over there as I have no interest in their discussions, and that's not meant in any way other than factual. I rode with a member on this board in Hawaii that rides the same bike as on that board, and I'd do it again, gladly. Don't care what you ride, or anyone else for that matter, I care about what I ride, and I'm here to discuss what I ride.

What am I rambling on about? Dunno, forgot, just wanted to say THANKS for bein' you, Skip. I'll buy you that cherry whatever it was you wanted, just email me your address...I'll send you a case, I mean it too, try me on for size. (Sounds kinky in a way, but that ain't what I meant...so don't start in on me about bein' a Marine either!)

Mac

Hey Mac, you get Skips Big Person address, and I'll send him a case of Black Cherry Soda too!
That's how much I appreciate his participation. [8D]

I started to reply,

"You're a true gentleman, Skip."

I will reply with this instead,

"You are a true Biker, Skip."
