nearly time
« on: August 08, 2017, 09:58:49 AM »
Only 18 days to go.Just saying.

This last Sunday I was at a classic bike event in Kent, England. I got chatting to a fella who told me he was ticking off an item from his bucket list this year, " I am going to ride the Bonneville Salt Flats. Run what ya brung later in August" he said. "Wow, well we will see you there then" was my reply.
It's a tiny world isn't it.

Good luck to you all for your final preps. See you on the salt!

Hey DW.
how are things? I am not riding. Just volunteering. shipping a bike from over here is not practical at all. I know a couple of people do it and I have great respect for them doing so, but it doesn't work for me due to the incredible amount of $$ to send it. So Dawn and I will be very happy to flag you all off and catch the excitement and enjoyment of your runs.
See you out there very soon.  :cheers:

Comet, Sounds Good, , Say Hi,  Im # 1369
But remind me how we know each other if my mind is elsewhere, Sometimes there is so much
going on my brains in a blur,  I dont want you to walk away and then I say, , , Oh Yea , Now I know who that was Haha
Not Sure if you Know Whisperz / Gil Gemmel A Red Shirt, He came up to me after my first wet run in 2014, It was like a blur
He said , Nice bike ,How fast this and  that,I can kinda remember,But I felt I blew him off, Well I spent the next year looking him
up to say Sorry, I didnt mean to come off like that, Haha Suprise,He saw it a whole other way,Said you seemed a little busy &
down,But you werent rude, So We been buddies ever since. . But man Id never want to be mean, , ,I cant imaging how the big
guys do it , , , Any way, See ya in a few days !!
