Hey folks

Ok, been a while since I've checked in, looks like we are up to 19 now. Just read PaulMays profile, if you want a good read go there and check his life story out. Paul, you've been through it my friend!! Props to you! I like the centralized mountain family thing, pretty amazing.

Been riding a lot, made a nice trip up to MA for a long weekend, close encounter with a bear two nights in a row. Something about sitting around the fire, mellowing out for the night, hear a noise, look to my right, a f#$*$&in BEAR!!!!! Did all the right things, stood up, made a noise, raised my hands up over my head, bear kind of looked at me and went along his merry way. Unnerving would best describe it!

Weather is getting cool here in the NE, broke out the chaps and 3/4 jacket this past week. Summer was full of great local and long distant rides. Maybe I'll wash the bike now!

How about the rest of you?
