I know some of you were asking about him I just heard from him. I guess things have been kinda hectic for him over the last year or so.
I told him to get back on DC as soon as he could. I think his last post was around sep 07? we look forward to you coming back johnny!

Other than hectic, are things ok? I think his Mom was ill & needing attention, if I recall.
Thanks for the update. :cheers:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Mike, it was good to hear from you!  :cheers:

Definitely miss NZ, and hope to someday go/move back there.

Aside from Alaska, it's the most at 'home' I've felt in my travels.

CF, yeah, I'm still taking care of my mom, and it's been a crazy rollercoaster ride to say the least.

Brock, I'm sorry I disappeared after you were gonna let me crash there for a night or too, but the tix to Auckland were just cheaper through LAX.
And it's been long enough that I can't remember if I apologized or not for flaking. Miss you, Dave, because without your help, I'd still be Charger-less. If you're ever in TX lemme know. I owe you a drive in the '70.

Neal, I know, I know. What an ungrateful bastard I've been!  :brickwall:  :D BTW did anyone ever find out about those t-shirts? Not that it matters anymore. :slap:

Pete, you sold your Charger? :icon_smile_question: That's alright, it happens. Hell, things got pretty tight around here on the financial side, and talk of selling my '70 was even floated.
Luckily better times and cooler heads sank that proposition.

So, to wrap it up, I'm still alive, still have my Chargers and I'll be around more often.  :icon_smile_big:

Well, something like that.
Still trying to get everything dialed in after the motor swap, but getting there.
It's nice to have finally have both Chargers damn near at daily-driver status. :2thumbs:

Pocket and 71ChallengeHer, thanks for the welcome!

Mark, I still need to get back there, man.
Miss that place.
OK, not so much the snow, but Texas' triple digit summers w/no A/C just aren't fun anymore.
Ummm, not sure that they ever were, but the novelty has definitely worn off. ;)
