I hope he is alright. Not sur eof his tolerance. I bought him some good Wisconsin beer while here.

Anyone got his phone# that could give him a ring?

Good news indeed.

Hey all.  Yeah, I'm back.  Thanks Bruce (oldschool) for checking in, and posting the update.

Putting together some pics and a quick ride report. 
Where do I post it?

And not sure if Nick (tews19) or SeanBarney.... heck, maybe bankerdanny?.... I don't know, either way, one of you took the pic of me handing off to Dennis (oldscrambler).  Would be nice to post that pic next to oldscrambler handing off to SeanBarney.

Anyways, let me know where to post the write up.

Yep, Both Michigan and Eastern Canada have their Anchor riders (thanks Artee & Larecords!!) Now we just need to coordinate a handoff with Team New England and fill in the spaces between with as much riding and (legal) fun as possible!
