Hey DrCool
The snootie fox has been hibernating to survive the cold winter months and will be taking off to El Salvador on the 25th to increase my vitamin D intake.
As for treating riding withdrawal syndrome I sit on my bike in the garage close my eyes and play Dust to Glory on the laptop. ![MC Happy](https://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/images/smilies/mchappy.gif) (I keep forgettting to give back Mike's copy he lent me ![Wink3](https://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/images/smilies/wink3.gif) )

We have a reservation for 25people, under the name Ontario Adventure Riders.
Cost me some $ to make the reservation.... so let's make sure we have at least 15 people - or else I loose my deposit.

Hell, that'll buff right out. The front hoop looks better than the one you just sold.
You should see if Patrick Trahan wants to sell you his Honda 450. A few spare parts and you'd be all set.
Thumpers are tiring

I'm pretty sure he want's to keep the bike. From what I've read on-line.
Eye's and ears are open though... I'm looking high and low for a formidable replacement.
...see you tonight.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
