Just wanted to give a shout out to your very own BigIan and Rachel. We've had the pleasure of hosting them here in the Bay Area for a few weeks, and I have to say it's hard to see them leave tonight. They're on a flight back to Syd, and I'm sure you guys will be happy to have them home. As I said many times, once a year just isn't enough! One of these days BikerGoddess and I will rob a bank and scrape together enough cash to get down there again.

And a huge happy birthday to Rachel! We kept hearing about how you'll be 3X in a few days, so I figured it's time to wish you a happy birthday!

LMAO!

So guys...what happened?
- Goldfish, circa 2006, Illawara

Actually, I was on a VFR that day. The Beemer/glove warmer went up into the Blue Mountains.

And the Supersport is alive and well. I put a few stickers on it to remind Big of how to operate it.

On the tank:
<-- LOOK LEFT
      TURN RIGHT -->

and on the tacho:

Remember:
1 Up
5 Down

I just want to let it be known that the need for Monster fixing has _nothing_ to do with me!

I'd love to hand the baton over, but I think that BumbleBee is looking good right now and doesn't need any more rashes and I wouldn't wish it on anyone, so damn it, I better keep it.  Embarrassed

Oh by the way Joe, I have a souvenir piece - a bit of mirror that my boss collected but handed over to me!

Nice Smiley

BTW - Love the avatar. Big can tell you all about the new coffee places you get to sample next time you come by.

BTW - You usually come in January. Isn't Rob visiting about then too? I'm not sure SF can handle two Aussie crashers at a time Grin
