Title: What's up you crusty old bastards...
Post by: ashman on January 13, 2010, 07:28:58 PM
Hey All,

I hadn't posted in forever and a day so thought I'd say hi. Some faces I remember, some not so much. Kerry, GSJack, Pablo, anyone??? I sold my GS a while back but still have my GSF600 (Bandit) which I've neglected and am finally riding again. When I was in school I always wondered how anyone could NOT ride a bike a on regular basis. Then I entered the real world and got a job and luckily enough have a company car. Low and behold I am now one of those guys. I can't use the bike for work so now it mostly sits. What a damn shame! Well, just wanted to drop in and see how the old GS family is doing.

Yo indeed. A welcome back to Ash - I thought Kerry had fallen off the planet as I had lost touch but he phoned me on New Year's Day. Like me I think he is snowed-in but is alive and well - so is his bike.

Glad to hear everyone is doing well. Thanks again to Cal for that help on a school project way back when I don't know if you remember that. Hard to believe the site is still up and alive after all these years.

Yeah, good to see you Ash.  +1 on the riding less thing.  Since my daughter came along, I'm riding the bike a little less, but I still make my annual trip to deals gap.  If not for the trip down there with you, Alpha, that guy, and Rangerbrown, I would have missed out on some fantastic roads.  Now I go down there, and hit about 400-450 mile of NC, GA, SC, TN, and AL.  Some of the best roads I've ever ridden are thanks to you guys.

Hope all is well!

Oramac

Yeah, it's been a long while. I think my peak GS moment was with Oramac and the guys at Deals Gap. One of my favorite motorcycle trips. What about Pandy is she still around?
