I ride my old specialized stump jumper I bought back in 1994, now I am 57; I now ride with my 4 year old on the back.  That's been tough with the extra 30-40 lbs,, whoo more than that. The baby seat, & rack, probably 20-30 lbs + gear, + baby 35, = ??? extra 80lbs???

You should hang on to your CB750 Honda
I hardly get to go ride the motorcycles because I have a family now. I'm keepin mine I'm getting more again! :)

 Whoa, I have managed to start popping in here now and then and this time, really rattled MY cage, see you are pulling out. I am slowly working on getting back in here and Gonna miss you, when you are gone. Proud for ya though, cause taking care of yourself, is Very Important and it sounds like you have quite abit of enjoyment doing it too, And That is cool. I Have ALWAYS appreciated the fact that I found this place, when I did. been very enjoyable, being a part of this Family. You will be Very Much Missed, as you can tell.

  Glad you are doing well Bob and the "Quitting Smoking" is Very Awesome as well. Like has been suggested, keep the 750 at least for a while, it's like part of the Family and ya never know when you might just want to get out and Cruise on it. Take care, My Friend and Thanks for putting up with me.

Bob and I came to an agreement a few years ago. Each of us kept his word. Now that he is leaving.  ;)

The joke was for Bob's benefit of course, but I think you will be better to leave the babe thread as it is. Any 8 year old kid can find all the nudity they want on the interwebs.

Thank you so much for being a sound, voice of reason for the forum and helping make it what it is today.

You will be missed, Bob.

It was a joke too. Porn would be way too easy.  ;D

Never was in the industry myself, but met people who developed for it - when I worked in Digital Asset/Content Management.

Dammit... I step away for a while to raise my little guy and come back to find you've gone?!?! Glad to hear it is by your own decision, but as many have already stated, you'll be missed.

I still remember your blog, and enjoyed following your progress. I also enjoyed visiting your house to lend a hand getting your bike back up and running. Hope you poke in now and then to say Hi...

I'm thinking we should have a toast and smoke cigars! Congratulations!!!!!

Thanks, Kevin! Good to hear from you.

I'll let him decide the make of bike he likes, but the CA95 will be ready for him when he wants to learn to ride. He definitely likes motorcycles, though!

He already knows where the throttle is:
