    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pulled up beside an SUV the other day with a little dude in the back seat, about 5 or 6 I would guess. He was just looking over at me with the biggest grin on his face. He raised his hands as if on handle bars and acted like he was revving a bike so I did the same. His dad looked over at me and I nodded to the kid, he looked back saw the grin on the kid's face and popped one himself. :D :D The light turned green and I let the SUV pull ahead of me and then just cranked on the throttle through first and second and past them right as I hit about 7,000 in first and the kid was waving and the dad gave me a thumbs up.

No real point, kept it under the speed limit (55) and it was some good clean fun with a little guy and his dad. I felt like I had just made one or two people's day :D :D Well maybe not the dads because I am sure the kidding is bugging him to get a bike when he gets old enough! 8O :P
 
I'm sure the little guy was thrilled. Imagine what's going through his mind.
Ahhhhh... Wouldn't it be nice to be that young again? :)

no bills, little respinsibility... dang it sure would be nice...

Either way Wesv it's nice to see someone brighten up someone else's day a bit. Way too many folks today are wrapped up in making themselves happy that they forget about others.

Funny, my thoughts about that no bills no responsibility time revolve around being on the parents' dollar, which meant owning a motorcycle was Verboten.

I'll fork over the 60 bucks a year, thanks.
 
My grandson always got a thrill out of me riding him around the neighborhood when he was 4. At age 6 I bought him his own little Suzuki and now I delight in seeing the grins on his face as he twists that throttle of his own. Kids, ya gotta love um. :D
