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.

    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.

T-Nation Thread (My 2nd Thread) 3rd Overall (I think)

Too bad it keeps falling off the site. I note others models following the attempt. It's a common thread concept in my other forums including one on an Avalanche site showing 2500s and an Isuzu site I play on.

I took some really nice pictures in southern New Mexico. Since I am not riding at the moment, I'm getting withdrawals:

Painful ain't it, last time I've been on the bike was about 2 weeks ago, shoulders haven't been feeling so good with the weather changes every week.

Painful, yes....mentally. Physically...I'm ready to roll.

I just don't wanna bother any of my friends with keeping my bike in their garage. Even though I'm being teased by "Maintainers" that I don't wanna do the maintenance.

I'll be treking my trailer around as well and I don't wanna pay to keep it in storage.

I've got alot to think about and things to do before I scadadle outta here this weekend.

No sympathy.

Winter photo of my T under the blue cover behind a red sea. Frankly the red ones get out more often for mods and winter foolishness by the respective kids.

Oops, didn't mean to trample on you sense of ok-ness. Lay back on the couch and finish your thoughts.. Take the rest of 2014 if you need to.

T= time to get out and ride!

Hey Bill,

I returned to JAX without my "T". It's just not the same as when I did the roadtrip to NM. It was like a TDY (Temporary Duty) when I was active duty. Now that I'm on home station, it just doesn't feel the same.

I can't put my finger on it but somehow, it doesn't feel right. I'm not gonna go against my gut feeling.

Some things will have to be evaluated and I must decide what path is best. For now, I will do my duty as best I can and press forward with great optimism.

Think you need to find a permanent duty station in NM, seemed like NM suits you very nicely.

Hey WileyPete!

Yes, you have a TZ (1982). Yasser gave some differences...one of them being the 140 speedo, black engine, square lights, & black chain guard...which is the TD (1983).

Thanks for posting!

New Mexico was definitely fun...and my Mom/Aunts/Uncles/Sisters/Nieces/Nephews/HS Friends live in LA so it was nice to be close to where I grew up.

One of the Maintenance gurus that eventually became a good friend, found out I had a GS and suggested I bring it to NM. He has a GS650 that's he's working on for his girlfriend/now wife. Give him kudos for helping me adjust my "T's" valves. See Here:

Holloman was suppose to be a 6-month gig that turned into 10. We all knew it was going to come to a conclusion once the aircraft testing was done...that's the beauty of a TDY...there's an end date and we're getting daily per diem...so we did not mind being extended.

If you stay around long enough in any location, one can make good friends...such as me meeting and greeting with you Bill. I simply enjoyed the scenery once I got my bike on the road and did some group riding with you and a couple of friends. Those are definitely times I will not forget so thanks to you for being a guide.

I still haven't found what I'm looking for...and I think the military movements I made got me use to picking up and relocating 8 times! Once alone and seven times with my family.

Delaware seems to have grown on me. When my family and I first arrived, we weren't impressed with the location. Once we immersed into the school district and me transitioning at work, things become normal for a time. This assignment was accepted at my retirement eligibility (20 years) so we purchased a home in Dover. My family and I have learned to appreciate our final stop. It takes being away and coming back to see that it's not such a bad place.

This is why I make comments about liking or not liking a place because I/we have moved around so much, we quickly assess our current residence.

I'm glad I have a friend in southern NM who I can visit when the opportunity presents itself. For now, I'm trying to find something closer to Delaware which is where our family decided to plant our roots.

I'll give you a call soon Bill. My current job is very demanding and I think I need to slow down. (People at work have even told me) Whatever my plans are buddy, I'll keep you posted.
