I've heard thirdhand rumors but I'm not interested in them.  I consider John not only a friend but also a Ducati savior.  I know others here would also put him in one, if not both, of these two categories.  So is he OK?  Does he still ride?  Does he still wrench?  If this is a sensitive topic I'd love a PM so that I know not to ask such obtuse questions.

I've wondered the same and sent him a couple of emails and he hasn't answered.  But then I may have pissed him off because I kind of like Paris Hilton.  Don't know what he's up to but I'm assuming all is well and he just has other priorities than posting here.

+1 to all of what you said.  I would TOTALLY do Paris Hilton.  First I'd double bag-it.

Oh my, I was thinking the same thing just the other day when I needed "back up" on this board.  The old crew has blown to the wind apparently.

Do you guys remember that slide show that was put together on the other board which had "Love Will Keep Us Together" running in the background?  Makes one sort of want to have a reunion ride of all those folks.

Nope, don't remember any of that stuff.

Haven't heard much of ducman851 since he left the boards over a dispute. Wow... It's been so long that I don't remember anything more than that. Just a "dispute." Huh...

Ya know... It never hit me but there's a ducman on another board I found. Wonder if it's the same guy. I'll ask.

I had forgotten until now but I do remember! I think bobspapa put that one together. No more Luca, no more John, Dan is NY, Trouble is in San Diego, Erik is not in SLO, BadDog haven't seen a post from him in ages.

Sounds like a reunion ride might be in order. It is about time for the end of summer 33 ride and I know a certain spikey has been inquiring...
