Happy Holidays: Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Merry Christmas & New Year To All

Hope all of you riders are doing well - "all ya can, the easy ones twice!!"

Started this thread for all of us just checking in so we can keep tabs on each other.

I made quite a few friends on this forum over the years. We did some epic rides and major repairs on this forum.

I just wanted to say thanks to all you folks that kept me company on those long winter nights with some great posts and news of what was going on outside my neighborhood and even country and even continents - yeah I'm thinking of you folks in Canada & from across the pond - I hope you're going well.

I've been busy these last years building - kept working thru the fakedemic - luckily!!
Everything slowed down last year and business pretty much died off - lumber went through the roof - literally doubling costs instantly. Mortgage rates went to the moon and the sales rate dropped - we do great business when people sell property - they want it fixed up either when they sell it or when they buy it. So the price of food and fuel went through the roof and the budget got the whammy in both directions. No complaints, still standing and evolving into the next phase. Thankfully so far there are still positive forces pulling for the average people. It just takes time for people to realize just what is happening and seeing things for what they are.

Now, I have plenty of time to sit down and write to my old buddies here on the forum. I've always felt more at home here and the conversations were always nicer.

What better day than Christmas to start this thread, Merry Christmas - Everyone!!
I HOPE Next Year Will Be Better!!


Today in sunny southern california home of "surf city usa" our weather here is:
Sunny with a high temp of 80 and south west breeze of 5-10 mph.

Stopped by to Wish EVERYONE a Merry Christmas

Hope Santa brought you the new toys you've been needing.

So Far So Good, this year went by faster than the last. Take a moment to enjoy all the good - we survived another one.

Keep the shiny side up and the tires turning- HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Hey now RK

Normally i’d be in NC now riding every day. Personal situation arose keeping me north this winter. Sux. Luckily the temps have been mild…mild being in the 40’s. Expensive staying warm. Once they start slinging salt riding is over till spring.

Hope you had a good Christmas and are able to enjoy your New Years.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Seems the forum was MIA earlier this year - Very Happy to see it's still here after all.
With all the "other" social media these days its nice to come back here and look for old friends.
Hope all you old saddle tramps made it this far, I lost a few good ones over the last years.
Stay shiny side up and faster than the trouble chasing you.
Roadking.
