Flyinfool Posted April 11, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 11, 2019 Well it has been a slice for the last 12 years. But that darn clock just keeps on ticking. It was a sad day last fall when I had to sell my Venture due to medical stuff, Now this year that medical stuff has really been beating me up. My days of riding a MC are over. Closest I might get is an electric assist bicycle to try to stay in at least a little bit of shape. (Round is a shape....) Of course all the docs are standing around with there hands out. Then my job cut everyone's pay by 20%. It has all added up to receiving my renewal notice and things being real tight. My membership will end on 4-17 and at least for now I will not be able to renew it. I have been thinking about this for a while now and it does make me sad. I have so many friends here even though I have not met most of them in person. I may still renew once I find a paying job, not quite sure right now. Everything is up in the air. I will still look in, but I don't think I will be able to post. I think I can still get into chat though so I may pop in there once in a while.

slowrollwv Posted April 11, 2019 Share #2 Posted April 11, 2019 Jeff sorry to hear that your job cut your pay 20% but you don't need to leave. I know the clock is ticking but it hasn't stopped yet. If you leave you will be missed by many of your friends and brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Du-Rron Posted April 11, 2019 Share #3 Posted April 11, 2019 Well it has been a slice for the last 12 years. But that darn clock just keeps on ticking. We all appreciate you and the help you have offered others through the years. I am sorry you had to get out of the heavy bikes due to medical. Yes, round is a shape and I will enjoy that one with you. I will now try to figure out how to send you a private message. Wish me success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yama Mama Posted April 11, 2019 Share #4 Posted April 11, 2019 Flyinfool, I am sorry about all of this bad stuff you have had to go through. I have an idea of how to keep you active here. Everyone who has ever enjoyed one of your rum balls has to send in $1.00. I would think this would pay for several years of your membership. I know I am in! Love you brother, Yama Mama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvester Posted April 11, 2019 Share #10 Posted April 11, 2019 I really hate seeing you guys get this blast of winter from Wesley. My home town Omaha seems to have missed it but not by much. Iowa and the Dakotas, Minnisota, Wisconsin and maybe Michigan seem to be in the path by my research. You all be safe and warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patch Posted April 13, 2019 Share #13 Posted April 13, 2019 Unfortunately an other thread I missed.. Very pleased Hotel California came to you cause and for lots of reasons! Now the last time I visited my GP was after divorce, the last words we shared were, "use it or loose it" so staying active in general just helps me live a more carefree lifestyle.. Was telling Puc that cause of my shoulder injury last year which lead to my back getting out of shape (I do yoga for it which works super well) knowing I can't handle the weight of my big bikes this year, am thinking I'll build or find a cruiser type setup this year, too boring to just buy one;) Anyways Bud stick around your posts are relevant,,, that goes for Bongo too Patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point I don't care anymore since you are out of MY country you socialist. You can even go to Puerto Rico if you want.
