Had the opportunity to visit with our good friend Mike (Grump). We sat in the shade and talked about life, bikes, and more. Always good to see him, and of course visit with his wonderful wife, Jenny. The clock keeps ticking, he doesn't get to ride anymore, but he still dreams about going fast, and remembers our day at the NY Safety Track on the Oneonta ride. That track day was the beginning of the current bike he has for sale, in conversations with DocOlds, where he "just needed a little more power..."
Always a good time to see this young (at heart) fella! |

t was indeed a GREAT day in the desert. We always have a good time there. It was so nice to see you and finally meet the charming and lovely Margret Cook. For years Margret and I have passed like ships in the night for one reason or another but not his time. And the there was my old pal Tank. The three of them made my day. |

Looking good Mike. I still remember the NE ride you came and took part in. You, Shawn, and myself had an enjoyable ride that day and I still remember you being quite taken with all of the trees. Fun time!! |

I'll second that! That was a great spring ride! Take care Mike, I'll bet you miss riding. We will all be there some day.
Cheers!

Thanks Rick! 11 years ago! Time flies, and seems to accelerate as we get older.
Cheers!

Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end the faster it goes.
Great picture of an old dog, Mike you don't look bad either.
