Happy 10th Year Anniversary To Me
« on: December 04, 2015, 10:55:13 AM »

       Hello All, Yes, I find it hard to believe, But it has been 10 years with the SOHC4, as of Yesterday. Sure Have had some great times with you all and gained some Valuable Friends here too! So glad I stumbled across here, back then, on Dec. 3, 2005. I haven't been able to get on here as much as I had planned. Got some things going on with us, that have tightened up our finances quite a bit and putting some stress on us as well. But, I am working to resolve that and Lord willing, should see some results sometime toward the end of this month or first of next month. Wife says she doesn't want me to have to sell anything except maybe a few things from the garage. She is working to help us get through this. Sure glad to have her, for sure. Family wise, everyone is doing pretty well and coping with our pinch. Now, in case there is someone who reads this and thinks I am building up for a "Handout", nothing could be further from the truth. Just relating as to why I hadn't been on here more. Hope you all are all doing well, been quite awhile since I have talked to anyone, except for my occasional contact with Sam, on Facebook and I just sent a message to Terry (CB650), in a reply to a message from him.

Congratulations on the 10th anniversary in internet years that is like 50 so way to go!  You are truly blessed to have a good wife most would be selling you and your bike on Ebay by now.   Chin up you will get through it.

    I'll tell ya, this Bunch helped me through some tough spots, over the years and I will Never forget that. No Way could I ever forget that. Highly recommend the SOHC4 to anyone looking for a place that deals with these Hondas and a place where it is More than just a Forum. Yeah, pretty incredible to have a Lady who understands about the connection between a guy and hos motorcycles (and his cars as well) She keeps telling me, We'll make it and things should be coming together, before too much longer and we can relax somewhat. Thanks again.

Nice one Bill, I'm about one year behind you - although you wouldn't guess it from my post count! That's because I usually only post if I have knowledge to share to help someone out, which pretty much sums up my depth of knowledge ;D

You're so right about this forum - much more than just bikes, and there's always someone who seems to know the right thing to say when you need picking up. As they say, you always meet the nicest people on a Honda!
