But I hear that there is a move afoot among owners of Pathetic Blue machines to take over the Salem rally!
Just a rumor of course!
Bill Johnston
What the...?!
A hit below the belt with that Pathetic Blue crack, indeed. There will be retribution meted out at an appropriate time.
The movement, though still secret, is on for "S" owners to take over the rally. Even Pavement Grey / Schoolbus Yellow ones are included. We have recruited a couple of "RS" riders to work as a fifth column. The overall plan, or pusch as it will become known, is taking shape. With a new BMWMOA leader about to be put in place, the time will be ripe for fighting in the streets, er, popping the caps off imported beer bottles. Don't blow it. Remember, loose lips spill beer.
Beer from bottles?
PERISH THE THOUGHT!
Bill Johnston
Even more so- why go imported, when there's all that awesome local stuff?

Well, someone made a remark about Mandarin Oranges, so I just let things devolve from there. And, if you can't take it...toughen up.What the...?!

Be careful with that putsch talk, we don't want to let it out that we're taking over!
On the beer front, perhaps I could 'import' a few brewskis from our excellent local brewpub? Think I just might be able to smuggle some into Oregon in the sidecases!
Cheers!

I was planning on doing the same thing. Can't carry a lot as I'll be on an extended tour but you'll be able to sample some imported stuff from Canuckland. Provided, of course, your customs guys let me across the border with them as four of 'em, drank in succession, might be termed a WMD.

I think I will start a list too. S Bike trouble makers:

ANDYVH - Got to sneak up to Wisconsin and ride his R100RS while he is at work.

Well, at least I'm at the head of the class!
Bill Johnston
Good luck on that Bluehole; I work from my home and my R100RS is in the front atrium of the house, AND you'd have past my two ferocious guard kitties! Their "meowrs" are worse than their rubs.
Woodenshoe to Cheesehead
Serious change of plans on ANDYVH. -7?? this morning! Holy Moly that is cold! That is crazy. I will have to wait until at least May when it warms up into the 40??s.
2000 R1100RS

Trying to bring a little class to this joint
You just never let up, do ya!!!
OTOH, looks like some nice weather, but was that today?
If so, I'm green with envy! We had 9 straight days of solid fog and heavy overcast down here on the Hood Canal. FINALLY saw the sun for awhile yesterday...
Cheers!
PS. Mandarin Oranges are still faster than Pathetic Blue S bikes.
Bill Johnston
Uh...yeah! Sure was. Beautifully sunny and 25 degrees C - like it always is in Vancouver.
Kinda thought that was the case!
Never ridden the road up to Whistler (hard to carry 4 people with ski gear on an S), perhaps I need to do that next summer. Ferry from PA to Victoria, ride the Island a bit, then ferry over to the mainland for a ride up to Whistler. Then maybe Mt. Baker on the way home.
SO many roads, so little time.
Cheers!
