Randy has been in hiding for a little while but I finally talked to him the other day.

I think it was last Friday I decided to try and give Randy a call. Surprise surprise he answered the phone. He was on his way to Daytona for bike week. They were towing his rocket(lucy) down and planned on riding it back up. He was in the car with a friend and the friend will be bringing the car back.

Randy is very happily involved with Michelle. They met a while back and he has been very happy ever since. Michelle was going to bike week with Randy and they will be riding back to Tennessee together on Lucy.

There is one little issue. I think they have been hanging with Harley riders. Note the use of said trailer. So he may be a little embarassed around us. I don't think he is planning on doing the bash this year.

All kidding aside Robin and I love Randy a lot and wish him all the best and plan to go see him as soon as it warms up a little bit around here.
I am an individual. Just like everyone else.

Good to hear he's doing well and havin some fun too. Do hope he can make the Bash (and Michelle too) but he really should leave the trailer home as there might be someone with a boat who will need it. lol

When I went to buy mine I thought Triumph would at least give a color option in John Deere green.

Hey Billy, how bout that sweet stretch between the campsite and downtown. Remember the sincere tracks in the runaway ramp; man, there must have been a real "ahh shhiit" moment before that happened.

Hey Todd

I remember that sweet stretch but I was probably going to fast to notice the tracks lol.
I am so looking forward to seeing everyone again this year.

Yeah man, those were the first "runaway ramps" I ever saw - and the first time I ever heard of them! Not an inspiring sight or concept for a motorcycle rider, LOL.
I got there so late last year - and left pretty early, that I had little opportunity to ride the roads, see the sights. An earlier start this year for certain. Hell, I never even got to see the Bennington Monument up close.

Yeah that monument is pretty cool. Jimmy, Speed and I went to check it out at the first bash. I'm not surprised Billy didn't see the tracks. When wer'e up to the Bash have him recount the story about a pissed off cop and a yes sir no sir explanation. lol

Can't wait!!
