  1. I am getting near the end of the items for the St. Jude Auctions. I have just posted a new auction for 1 Crusin for St. Jude T shirt( XX Large), 1 Crusin for St. Jude Hat, 1 Crusin for St. Jude Pin. Remember, all funds raised are going to the Kids at St.Jude Childrens Hospital. We will be organizing a ride in late September to deliver the monies to St. Jude in Memphis, Tn. Squidley and Snarley Bill are also raising funds for St. Jude with their own efforts and will also be joining the ride to Memphis. So, mark your calendar for the latter part of Sept. and join us on the wonderful ride. Last year we had 19 bikes from various parts of the U.S. and hopefully we will increase the attendance and the amount raised last year. My thanks goes out to all who have bid,donated items for auctions, and supported the great institution that St.Jude Childrens Hospital is..................Just remember its all for the Kids, our future depends on the youth of today and who knows some of them may have been helped by St. Jude. Danny Thomas did a wonderful thing when he founded this hospital back in 1962. I want to be a small part of keeping it going and growing. Thanks and God Bless each and every one of this great organization, especially our founder Freebird. Lewis & Charlene Cramer DragonRider & DragonLady
  2. As a newbie your are presently excused for the lack of pics........Rule #1, when you acquire a new ride, modify said ride, or brag on your new ride, pics must accompany your post.......Take this as your first warning, get them pics posted or else you will face banishment...................:confused24:or at least the wraith of us senior members................ Enjoy your new ride and word of caution, this group is addictive:bang head: and we havent found a 12 step program to cure it...........but we really dont want to.............
  3. Lyle, BRScooter, sent me this, I thought it would be good to post it here, it makes it easy to thank them without words and is an easy to do...........watch the video, it is moving. http://www.gratitudecampaign.org/shortmovie.php
  4. Looks really good from what I see, I hope the paint job on my bike comes out as good as your trailer did...........Looking sharp...........
  5. I have been caught a couple of times by surprise when the bungee I was trying to stretch to its limit reached it before it should have and those things can leave a nice mark......lucky for me never got close to my face, but it still hurt:duck:
  6. 1Rooster is the winner of the 1st Gen seat........Congratulations........ Thanks to Brad for donating this item for the kids..........
  7. I do believe he is refering to the rear end, it is sort of a chunky piece...........
  8. If I could afford it I would buy it in a heartbeat......you gotta see it to believe it............costs about $150,000.00.......but wait till you see what it does............. Terrafugia
  9. Sent you a pm regarding the seat...........
  10. Only 12 hours left to replace that old torn used up seat on your 1st Gen. The auction will end in a little over 12 hours and remember all the money goes to the Kids at St. Jude Children's Hospital, and if the bid goes over $60.00, Squidley will pay $15.00 of the shipping charges, so lets make him put up some more of his hard earned cash :mo money:............ Thanks to Brad everyone else who has offered up items for auction to help the Kids at St. Jude, and thanks to the membership for helping make it possible with all their generous bids..........
  11. Very well said, I wish I could write so well as to get something published............. Keep on plugging away at Yamaha, maybe they read it too:think:
  12. I have had several encounters with birds, mostly very big ones, when I lived in Texas I was driving to work one morning and a flock of albatross were in the road and they started to take off, but one was not doing a very good job of getting airborne and I ended up hitting him with the front of an 79 Plymout Volare, that bird went straigth up in the air and I saw him fall back to earth in a pile of feathers in my rear view mirror..........left a gigantic dent in the hood of the car when he impacted it. Another time I was traveling through Alabama late at night in my van when I saw this dark object come hurtling at my windshield from the right, it hit my windshield right where it meets the hood and the impact took off both of the windshield wiper arms off the van............To this day I dont know what it was, but it scared the living crap outta me............Hope I never encounter one while Im on my bike.......had a couple come close. The largest thing I almost his is a black bear, but thats another story..
  13. After reading this post.......I didnt sleep well at all last night.........at least I didnt have dreams about Beer30 running around in a thong..............but the image still bothers me.........I think I have been scarred for life. Thanks Gene
  14. Hang in there Pete, it may take some time but things will get better, have faith, we are all praying for you. I have a couple of friends that have had strokes and both have made full recoveries and are back to doing their everyday things, hasnt slowed them down one bit, now neither rides a m/c, but I am sure if they did they would be riding. Keep us updated on your progress, God Bless and good luck. Lewis & Charlene
  15. That mental picture blinded me, and now I am afraid to go to bed thinking about the dreams, or nightmares I might have about Beer30 in a thong...............:shock3: Even though his post was about Thongs (Slippers), that 1st mental picture still is there..............thank goodness he clairified his explanation..............but that other image still haunts me.
  16. If you drop it this year or any time, I think you better give up riding on anything less than 4 wheels...........

  18. We got a great group of VR members in and around the Atlanta area, so if you get up this way, good excuse for a meet and eat...........have a safe move and keep it touch........
  19. Well everything does eventually have a price, but I aint gonna find out what this one is........:no-no-no:

  21. Crash, if you love the shirt I think you are gonna love this. I received this from St. Jude a few days ago.........I was floored, I had never seen one of these before.........Charlene said to hold on to it cause when I have to send you off to your final resting place I want you to be wearing that tie...........Sounds sort of ominous doesnt it..........Gee, I wonder if she is making some plans I dont know about........... But I thought you would like to see this...........the picture doesnt really do it justice.......Its beautiful!!!!!!
  22. I thought someone had been mia for a while........Hope things are getting better for ya.............Good luck with the wisdom teeth, I had 3 removed at the same time many years ago.......man that was a drag, had it done the day before thanksgiving.............on the plus side I did loose some weight!!!!!!!
