Well....Wow.

Been an interesting couple weeks.

Found out last week that my employer is doing some reshuffling. Changing Focus for the company and taking it in some new directions.

So...For the immediate future my base down here in McAllen will be inactive.

I'm taking my team from here and setting up shop in Louisville. Will be flying out of Standiford. Right on the Ohio border.

What can Brown do for you? Apparantly it can get my a$$ sent to Louisville.

Fortunately the rotation is such that I'll be there a month on then a month off.

Will be running Louisville to Edmonton Canada

I'll be spending a couple weekends in Louisville and a couple in Edmonton Alberta.

If anyone lives in Louisville or Edmonton drop me a line and lemme know what there is in regards to the Bike scene.

If ya need a hand with your bike let me know....I'm sure I'll be bored to tears.

       Hey Tim, can you fit a 750 frame n that overnight bag? ;D  Just wondered. You see, a while back, Chris was looking for a way to get one from fuzzy, I think and he was looking for a way to get it up there to Canada. ;) That's why I was wondering if you could fir one in your overnight bag. :D

       So, is this a temp. thing or are you out of Texas for good? You take care Tim and stay safe. :)

                                      Later on, Bill ;)

If you need any slightly used parts while in Lou-A-Vull drop by Magnum's on Dixie Hwy and tell the owner Bob that Drug Man recommended him. Not a pretty place but it's basically a wrecker with good ole boys with 2 old run down houses full of parts and a pseudo-shop in the garage. Bob likes Bud Light now that he's switched from Old Milwaukee.

As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Don't know if any one has mentioned KG but I think that Edmonton can be a bit brisk in the winter.
