Members Coming Out In The Open To Ride?
« on: March 21, 2008, 10:21:08 AM »


        Well, now that the weather seems to be more to our liking, I suppose a number of members will be resting out the OPEN ROAD! Might even start appearing on here more too! Kinda seems like some of our members went into hibernation for the winter months. :D

                                Later on, Bill :) ;)

           Nice to know, I'm not the only one! :D I don't have much space and NO heat, so it just isn't practical for me to try to do much during the Winter or Rainy Season. I just took it for granted, from what I've heard here, that most folks do their work during the Winter months  (if possible).

                                        Take care, Bill :) ;)

          Yeah, I can understand that. Couple of weeks, huh? I'll bet you're itching for warm weather so you can get out in it. Here's hoping that the warm weather isn't delayed for you all up in the Northern states. ;)

                                      Later on, Bill :) ;)

            That's too bad Bob! :-\  Knowing THIS bunch, I'm somewhat surprised that someone hasn't built a Snowblower with 750 SOHC4 Power! ::)
