Hurray!!!
Thanks Lynda !
Sometimes you just have to go after that red tape with a black magic marker!!!
Took a bit more than a black magic marker:
My friend David, here in Santa Fe, has been working his a** off
to get it done. It was like a black hole...a billion calls to various offices to
get information, to get someone to do that darn VIN inspection, to get someone to
tell who and where it could be done. Two different persons in the same office would
give two different answers, call were never returned, persons couldn't be reached.
Finally last Friday, by coincidence, he learned that we could get it done at the State Police
up in EspaƱola. Raced up there, waited for the guy in front of us....got the darn VIN inspection
with no problems and got up to the Motor Vehicle office, sat in line for two hours.
The nice lady said she'd do it right away...came to the window with the loooooong awaited
license plate.....I almost reached in through the hole in the window to grab them from her,
and maybe I should have cause.......PROBLEM !....officer Robocop had made a slight mistake
filling out the papers...so "Sorry, no registration"....AURGH !----and Robocop had left the building and
couldn't be reached......David left at note at his office explaining the situation
and then tried for two days to get hold of him....no cigar.
Then a few days ago David had had enough ...bless him, bless him, bless him.....he got up at 5 in the
morning and drove up to the State Police in EspaƱola and waited for him to show up for work.
Grabbed him by the balls ( umh...no really ) and got the paperwork (re)done.
Gawdallmighty !!!
Glad everything has worked out. I guess you're going to have to get a leash for that bike of yours, seems she's got the wanderlust in her eyes (eye?) now! That ole girl does seem to enjoy traveling!!
She'll be in chains from now on
good to hear the bike is with the rightful owner.
is your friends workshop in new mex or across the pond?
