Gentlemen and Ladies....Well it has been a long time
« on: December 29, 2022, 02:42:39 PM »
Since I have been on here... I Didn't realize the last time I had been on here was nearly 6 years ago...Time flies when life is a constantly changing beast. I am currently without a motorcycle or wife as of the end of November this year. Hopefully 2023 changes at least one of these two things. Popped on here to try to find something in one of my posts and went "Well damn...it has been that long since i have been on here? Need to change that.."

So all that said..Hello to everyone i knew on here in the past and hope most of ya are still around.

Thanks everyone

Yes I'm still in lloyd. I am bikeless due to a combination of Covid and health reasons. In short i was trying to sell the Harley due to reduced leg strength unfortunately it was repossessed due to not being able to continue paying for it at the same time due to reduction in work from Covid. Might go looking for a CB over the year to get back on to two wheels.

Welcome back. I hope the next few years are a major improvement over the past ones. Do you still have your MG?

Yep, Still have the MG. It essentially replaced bikes in terms of summer toys due to health reasons as mentioned above. It is currently sitting needing a fuel pump rebuild or replacement and a carb clean. May end up replacing the dual SU carbs with a single weber for a short term set up while i clean and rebuild the SUs.

Indeed, Happened to stumble into the Memorial area when i was looking for something and was shocked at some of the names i recognized in there. Same with seeing names i knew in my pm box no longer being part of the forum in general...
