Has been a long time since I have been active on the forum... Like the new look- Great Job Gary!

Anyway- life has been crazy for me last couple of years with Retirement- moving from Colorado to Texas- Building a new shop.... on and on...

Now finally getting back into my bikes to bring them all out of a 2+ year storage and to get them all Running again and will be starting some Restorations on my collection of Badge Tank bikes...

Anyway... will start some new threads as I start each one and post the progress along the way... got my Daily riders all cleaned up and running good... working on the Black Widow now for a much needed refresh as this bike has been all over the country with all of our Endurofest events / rides over the years.

I hope you are right Greg.  Yes we are still in Flagstaff.  I bought a KTM 500 right after I moved here and it tried to hurt me many times so I finally gave up and sold it.  I still have my 76 Honda MR and all my Yamahas so Senior Level is all I got.  I see you moved to Texas which is too bad because my son now lives in Carbondale, CO.  Hopefully we get a chance to ride somewhere!

. I will NEVER forget the super great Endurofest riding you and Dave Meis put together in Ouray Colorado. Unfortunately, my enduro riding days are pretty much over. I now get my thrills traveling to Europe three times a year with my beautiful wife. This past spring we went on a 26 day trip to Germany. This fall we will be in Vienna, Bratislava, and a couple towns in the Czech Republic. Wishing y'all the very best living in Texas

Thanks Don- Will never forget all the great Riding we all did for many years in the most amazing places.

Sure miss seeing you and everyone out there... but doing great in Texas-  We have adjusted very well as our kids and grandkids are all down here which lead to us moving here.

Who knows... maybe we'll do a So Cal meet-up / reunion one of these days to all get together again to share stories and riding memories.

I would definitely be up for a So Cal reunion. We have just bought a second house on the west side of Phoenix which put us about 1 1/2 hours closer to So Cal. I am almost 70 but still in good shape, I could probably pull off a day of "senior riding" in Gorman.
