Maybe I shouldn't have capitalized that?...

Indeed!....MERRY CHRISTMAS to all my fellow 2-Wheelers! & may 2026 bring a lot more RIDING--

Like I said before....Depends on WHO you ask....

Well this old man got some great news today....My son has made it back to OR & is finally out of Israel! Got a text reply from him today telling me he'll be state-side for another year while he waits for his top-secret security clearance to clear before he heads off to Germany into more of an Administrative position w/ the company he works for....No More sand people & war zones to work in! He also told me that my oldest G-son is moving back to OR from NM....so I called him straight away to get the low-down. His job w/ NASA turned out to be a dead end...so he sold his house in NM & scored a job w/ Amazon at a new data center in Hermiston OR...just over an hour away from Elgin ....he starts the 12th of Jan. I'm so stoked & I can't wait to see my Great G-son...he's a beautiful boy & an absolute Chip Off The Old Block....

Oh Lyn, I feel your pain mate. I spent a good year crying my eyes out after Jana passed. I drove to a beautiful place called Black Horse creek & spread her ashes, along with ashes of our son & her Dad. She just wanted to be near water, so I made that last wish happen. It absolutely tore me up at 1st....but with time, it also brought me some real Peace. I truly hope & Pray that you find that Peace as well.

So, nobody can accuse you of just having Selective Hearing, eh?....that could definitely be a blessing!

Push-rods, lifters...reminds me of turning spanners on my SB Chevy's. I too, would like to see pics of the Hardley's inerds for comparison.

That would make a great ride for hauling Dirt Bikes & generally playing around out in the woods....

My favorite EVH tune....played by a lovely lady on a Violin... https://www.facebook.com/reel/4173683789517678

'Bout right there mate...take a number & get in line...

Waaay too obvious who wrote this thread....not a twat....yeah, Right....just depends on who you ask...

Great choices both of them.... but this useless excuse of a cyborg is casting his vote for @Saul...he's definitely earned it.

53F this morning after a night of gale force winds w/ 60+mph gusts....blew down half of a willow tree in my back yard. Then spent all day w/ Mrs. Hook at the hospital while she got a new right knee. She did pretty good but still needs to sleep off the pain meds. I'll go back down to La Grande tomorrow to bring her home. Our house just isn't the same w/o her...& our dogs know it.

If you're not already a diabetic....you probably will be...

IF you can get it past your nose...

Sounds like the speedo glass needs a new seal....

A skilled restoration no doubt.... Bitchin' vise.

41f here this morning....definitely getting a spin on the Mullet today. Got the suspicious feeling this weather is gonna flick like a switch to full-blown Winter weather soon...

45f here this morning & pissing down pretty good....last year on this day it was 31f....the year before it was 21f....crazy-ass weather! Got the house all dialed in for Mrs. Hook's knee replacement on Wed....recovery will commence on Thursday.

At least he doesn't resemble a wooly Mammoth....

That's MR. f*cking cyborg to you NumbSkull!....but my friends call me Capt. Hook. How do you think I feel trying to survive on Social Security Disability?...ya big Barge riding, 2-legged wooly Mammoth.

Prime candidate for the Billy No Mates RC....

Nice work @Saul....lookin' better all the time.

Although it might be difficult to enforce....gotta start somewhere. Holding some of these platforms responsible because of the lame parenting that results in too much grooming, cyberbullying & school shootings that are going on.

Well after another Atmospheric River hit the PNW in the last 3 days...I'm sure grateful I moved to the east side of the state. We've gotten some much needed rain, but the west side is still swimming.... Hwy 18 near Otis OR... Tillamook OR near the coast....
