DA,

Sounds like Bob-O is buying all weekend to me.

What does it pay to haul a sled from the UP to Lansing??

Looking good DA, cant' waited to see it in person next week.

Wow, that is one fine looking unit. I bet that new owner is really happy with that purchase.

Great re-cap Brian. It was great finishing with you, Guy and Tom. I had turned into a one man wolf pack. Left Fishtales with Roger, Dand and Keith. Dan went out on the Polaris you mentioned going through the Root Cellar with Keith. Rodger turned back part way accross Cisco with the MotoSki giving up...

Don my friend (I think I can call you that now), you are truely a class act. Your efforts and passion on this project are model to live by. Mark, you too are a class act with your actions to give back this little piece of history. I hope I have a chance to shake your hand and meet you in person next...

Has there been any discussion with anyone about posting some kind of signs for the HOF route? No offense to our trail guide last year, but he wasn't even sure of the route. At several intersections, he was asking for approval on the route. Just a thought since it sounds like the VC folks are leaving...

Don, "Helen" is looking pretty good, I've give here the once over with a little TLC. We'd almost be twins with the way they are stickered. At least I know I can stay ahead of him with the SRX. He's been in Germany for 4 years, I just hope he remembers how to ride. Especially a vintage mach...

Tom, Cat is looking good! I'm getting my herd of clunkers around. Got the SRX just about ready. With a lot of help from KWC on some paint, the hood is ready and just installed the new seat. Heading back up to the UP in a couple of weeks for some more tuning changes. Pic of Kevin's 800 on it's maden ...

DA,

Not a problem on the windshield, Kevin used all of the strong arm techniques he learned from you. The words no beer really got to me though. Since I won't be able to make the build day in a few weeks, I figured I better do a little more besides taking pictures of Kevin painting the hood.

Ross

You can do me a favor Brian, I need this thing out of the back of my truck.

Glad I could help. Nice couple of brothers you bought it from, they were happy it was going to a new home and not going to become a part sled.

Later,

Ross

Brian,

Great job on recalling the adventure.

Kevin,

Does that mean the Phyclone project is now on hold that we engineered all the way from Wisconsin to K-zoo??

Well, after all of this time hanging out with "The Deere" guy's, I've been emotionally guilted into joining the site. Mostly since Don keeps me in the pics and even remembers my name. I had a great time hanging out with all of you guy's again even though I didn't bring the 77 Liquifire for...
