Title: I'm out....
Post by: Duck-Stew on April 05, 2010, 06:34:57 AM
Been in SoCal for 7 years now.  Had a BLAST!  Made a shit-load of good friends!  Rode some amazing roads and generally had a kick-ass time.

But, I have a daughter that needs me now so I have to pack up and say 'Adieu' to SoCal.  I'm moving to Albuquerque, NM to take a job at the Ducati dealer out there.  Unfortunately, I have to sell off my '95 M900 in case anyone's interested.  It's in the 'Monsters for Sale' board.

I'll be around for another couple weeks trying like hell to finish up some loose ends that just need finishing...

Take care everyone!
--Stuart

Dude!!  I'm so happy for you!!!  As we have discussed in the past, the universe has a way of delivering what we need when we are open minded enough to go with the flow.  Of all of the great experiences that owning my Ducati has brought me, getting to know and ride with you is at the top of the list.

Godspeed Stuart!!

It was nice to have met you a few times before you departed.

Good on you for doing what you need to do.

Stu,

It's been a pleasure...... you are always so helpful whether it was on here on on the 33 ;)

Glad you're going to take care of your daughter....... it's the right thing to do [thumbsup]  The most beautiful thing I have is my realitionships with my children........ you can't put ANY price on that.

Look for Al Unser Jr. wwhile you there....... he should be in a bar or a strip club [laugh]

Thanks all for the kind words and well-wishes.  It's been a great time in my life, but this chapter is over I feel and it's time to focus on more important things (like my family...).

I go knowing that a part of me stays here, somewhere up on Upper Big Tujunga Road actually...  [evil]  [moto]  [thumbsup]

Likely be moving to NM by the end of next week by the way...

Best of luck in your new locale and career "change"

Alexandra and you are the winners in this scenario for sure [thumbsup]

Sorry I didn't get to meet you, let alone sign over a few paychecks to you to Stuify my beast.  You sure add a lot to things here so I'd like to thank you, though I'm a newcomer.  Best of luck.

NOoooooooooo,  Oh, man are you serious?  Actually never mind obviously you are.  I don't really ride that often, (neck issues from previous accidents) but i'll put my bike back together and make it out if your going to be there.
