    It's probably stuck in the up position. You could try turning the scoot upside down but it won't help much I guess. That's about as much help as I can be I suppose. When was the last time it was down? Take the bolt out and see if will free up that way.

    Off hand I would say that you need to deal directly with the area of pain, or discomfort. I would not recommend to start cutting right away, but do the opposite first, build up the other areas as a start. If that seems to address the problem, then you have a good idea as to where to do surgery. Everybody is built different, basically the same, but with minute differences that can't be addressed for the masses, so sometimes we need to make slight adjustments. That's where trial and error come in,, hopefully not too many errors, for seats are not all that cheap. Maybe your seat is too wide and so causes your leg bones to set your butt and back in a sore position, try to put a band (ratchet strap) around it where your legs come off the seat and try that for an hour or so, see how it develops.

    Don't know if this will help your situation, probably not, and I don't have it perfect yet. As you can see I have dug two holes in the foam, right where my butt bones set,,, makes a world of difference, now I still have to give relieve to the round part of the bone that goes over the side of the seat, but I wants to be careful not to take too much out. My theory is that pressure from sitting on certain parts of my behind cut out the blood circulation and then the ache starts, keep it circulating and it should or could solve the problem. Now that can be done with more fat back there, but that is an option that seems to elude me, so I had to come up with another option.

    You'd better explain this better,,,,, as we get older we tend to forget things,,, just 2 and 4 don't cut it,,, how can we remind the forgetful if we don't know what to remind them of,,, and I'm thinking maybe Hal is getting older,,, we'll see I guess.

    Is it really your tail bone or is it your butt bones that are giving you an ache?

    And so WOW,,, how come we weren't invited,,,,, could have been another VentureIn and the party could have lasted allllll night, because we would all want to have spoken,,,,'specially me. Good to hear it turned out so good,,, now forget about the work for a while,, you need to ponder the next step very carefully, so you get it right and not screw up,,,,, 'course the best spot to do some pondering is on the back of an iron horse,, away from all that would be distracting and into territories that would give new and thoughtful ideas.

    Now maybe if you got a picture of a first gen and displayed that beside your 2nd gen, we'd really get them confused.

    I'm with those who recommend a totally natural product, stay away from all the smells and softners, use plain as plain can get soap,, or just plain vinegar, but not the cheap kind.

    Buy it, they are a rare breed indeed, after all they only made them in 85. they're one of a kind.

    Insurance adjuster called and took all the particulars. First she says that seeing as the lights were not functioning, we were to be classified as both at fault and so I would have to pay my deductible, and I would have a claim registered against my policy. I then informed her that the signals were working,, if they were not working there would be no lights at all, but seeing as they were flashing, they were working, and there are provisions for that in the highway traffic act, which was written for just such an occasion as this. She put me on hold while she investigated and came back to say that I was right,,,, now can you imagine how good I was feeling to have a woman tell me I was right???????? got to find me this female,, make her an offer,, these are a rare breed indeed. Anyways we now have the van at the fix-it shop, got a rental all paid for in the drive, looking forward to the weekend, and have a little faith in the insurance company,,, not a lot, just a little,,,,, still have to finish dealing with them on the Saab issue, they ain't so happy with me there.

    to add some pictures. Not really all that serious, but the whole front is plastic, and tends to fall off at a moments notice.

    Not sure we want any pygmies,,, can't trust them any better than monkeys. just have to take the cleaver over there again, and offer to trim that monkey up some,,,, worked last time I think,,, at least he improved for a while.

    On the other hand,,,we in S.Ontario have had it allllllll right, some rain, but mostly real decent for this time of year,,, now the next week there seems to be a lot of rain forecast, but that changes all the time,,, so,,,, so far so good.

    Well it happened again. First of all we have a good sized fire in our 'back yard', our neighbors ginseng straw covering caught fire from our garbage fire, cost was about $1000.00 for firetrucks and then some lots more for the ginseng equipment. Next Marca drives the Saab right into the back corner of this guy that cut her off,,, taught him a lesson for sure, but the insurance has decided to write the car off, but won't give me enough to buy me another one, so more money needed. This has been in the works for the last two weeks and I think they are getting a little fed up with me,,,,,,,,, SO NOW comes #3 Coming home today from picking up some meat, I approach the intersection just down the road from us. It is normally controlled by a stop light, you know the kind, when the one side shows red the other side is supposed to show green, and then some monkey switches them just as you approach???? well that's the kind of light we have here,,,,, except that the monkey went on a break, and so left the lights in the flashing mode,,,, some people might think the lights are broke at this point,,, but I know better, I've had to deal with this monkey before, and I've had a talk to the traffic department about him,, but so far, he's still got the job. And today, he took a break,,, right at 'rush hour' I mean, the intersection was full. So as I approached and noticed that he was monkeying around, I slowed down,, I didn't trust him, nor did I trust the drivers who were all trying to get home before the husband ate up all the goodies left over from last night. I was cautious all right, I was only doing about 30 kph or about 20 mph when I entered the intersection. I had flashing amber and the cross traffic had flashing red. Now when you have a flashing red, according to the rule book you must stop and proceed only when the way is clear,,,, but not today, because off to my left is a lady who decides that now it is her turn to go, so off she goes, pedal to the medal, (remember what her husband could be up to?) and so decides that since she is first she'll make it and I'll just have to stop!!!!!! but not today, the monkey is my witness, I tried to stop alright, but I got her attention real fast by doing serious damage to the front corner of her vehicle first. In the process the front of our meat van also suffered some damage that needs to be repaired,,, almost the whole front fell off, turns out it's all plastic,,, ouch,,,, almost like my bike. Now I wonder what the insurance company is going to say,,,,, bet they won't fool with me anymore,, it keeps getting bigger and more expensive. Everybody is Ok, just need to have a little body work on the front of my van, and the lady should buy a tank.

    Fathers

    Sometimes I wished I was that close to my dad,,, but dad was always busy making a living for the family and doing things for our faith life,,,church and school. Glad you had a good time with your dad, but he wouldn't want you to keep moping about him,,, he would want you to carry on where he left off,,,, so when the time comes, get back on your feet and be the man he was hoping you would be.

    Generally 1 can for a tank full, but if you have problems I would go 1 can for a half tank or less. After you got that through and have run a clean tank of gas through, I would then do an oil change with filter.

    Woah you're alive as well,,,,, well now that we have a lively bunch, it's time for eating,,, after all, it is a disorder, and it needs to be looked after, right pronto. Let us know when and where. Carl
  23. Marcarl
    Sounds like you might have an extra pretty soon,,,, but then maybe someone else might have had a 'pizza' issue before,,, 'course it could always be blamed on the lawn mower anyways,,,,, just don't tell Don, he has enough lawnmower problems as it is, he doesn't need to have anymore excuses.
  24. Marcarl
    He just don't look right somehow,,,, must be the lack of VentureRiders in his comapny.

    Hey????????????????? how come we didn't tell where we got those awesome treats,,,,, oh ya, we want to have some next time around,,,,,, but ahhhhhhh they were soooooooooooo good,,,, sweet,tasty, cold,,,, and on the tip of your tongue all the way to the back of the mouth, just super tantalizing, one little scoop after the other until it all slowly disappeared and then only to be looking for more,,,, can't really be described how it makes one feel,,,, got to be the best thing going, sitting there among friends and letting such heavenly product slip through the taste buds. I think I'll just have to go back this week to make sure I wasn't dreaming,,,,,,, WOULD YOU like me to let you know? my little friend??
