Fenders wrote an article-- Impressive
« on: April 10, 2015, 10:44:16 AM »
  Looks like our ex member Fendersrule wrote an article for the latest issue of the VJMC magazine. Have not read it well yet but no shout out for the SOHC Forum that helped him that I see but there is one for FB side covers. No mention of the accident with that piece of plastic on the green 750 but some praise for the 450's, they are the most impressive bike ever built  ;)

He gave props to Hondatwin.net and not SOHC4? WTH? Red headed step child syndrome? I think not!

Fixed. I heard from a "little bird" that he was going to be in it. Does it also state that his bike won first place in a show? Truly impressive!

We gave him crap in one of his lame threads and he could not take the criticism.
Guy has a bike for a year or two and wants to tell people in this forum that have been riding bikes all their lives they are riding in the wrong part of the lane. And then he busts his ass at an intersection on what could be possibly part of an alien spacecraft by his estimation.
Ooooooooooooooooookaaaaaaaay.  ::)

Oh now come on guys admit it, we ALL miss him. I mean who here can deny that his post that more times than not would turn into a ranting session was some of the most entertaining reading this site has seen in a long time. Right when things get interesting you meanies scare them away.  :'(

If I recall correctly he was being "condescended to" here, whatever that means.

Ironic , he had a major tilt against some of our Aussie mates on their use of English, then he becomes an author when my cat Koshka who is a strange hybrid of a French and Russian sort of feline can dab her paw in a pot of ink and do better.

I could forgive the diarrhoea that fell out of his mouth (most of the time) and he sure wasn't the first arrogant gobsh1te I've ever come across. But leaving that piece of plastic in the road after taking photos of it was what put my respect for him into minus figures.

Way to go Fender. Damn impressive!! Just don't forget the small people here on the sohc4 forum that helped you get started while you were nothing but a greenhorn.

Still remember some of the confortations Retro and Fenders had. Very entertaining to say the least ;D

I miss Fenders.
About as much as having a 3rd fcuking armpit.
But it was an interesting time that made manic depression so much more in depth.  ;D
