I've got something I need to do before I can get in any wrenching.  Problem is, I got plenty of wrenching to do.  But one thing I've learned in the few short years that I have been married; a happy wife is one who lets you go wrenching.  Tina says maybe I can have you guys over here once the kitchen is done.  Have FUN..!

Hey Trapper. I've got to gut my kitchen, including the floor.  I've got soft spots in it because of leaks the previous owner didn't fix. I knew it when I bough the place, but got a good enough deal that it's worth it.
I'm going to take of week off sometime around next May and get the project started. I'm thinking seriously about concrete counter tops.
Anyway, good luck with your project. I'm sure you'll be happy when it's done.
I'd rather be outside than in.

Just wanted to thank Greg and Queen for opening their house up once again.  I made it home about 3:30, it was a cool ride.

It was a cold day at the Cothern house, but turnout was great.


Greg prepares to "blast off" on the rocket ...........Bob's Triumph Rocket III of course!

Browsing for on line manuals, no doubt!


I had to.  It goes without saying..............

What are you looking at ME for?


Mingling.


Mostly Magnas .........with a few Valks, the Rocket and a C90 thrown in there.


Jeff, Charles and Brenda surrounded by friends .........and the Rocket, surrounded by admirers.


What a great day.  It was good to see my friends from the old MOOT days, my friends from recent MOOT days and even a new face or two.  Lunch at the Cotton Gin was great and true to MOOT tradition we took the "long way home".  The road through Combine is getting to be in bad shape though, it tried to toss me a couple of times.  As far as work done, I think we had some valve adjustments on a V65, Carb work on a 3rd Gen going on and I had to replace a fuse that fed my Gerbings (thanks Jeff) due to my ineptitude.

Please add your thoughts and experiences on today's event.

IT was a cold but GREAT day!  Thoroughly enjoyed everyone's company and even got to take the rocket for a blast off!  IT did too, blasted my sunglasses right off my head!!!  So I had to remove about $30 worth of Bob's rear tire rubber when I hit the rear brake.. 

Thanks to EVERYONE whom braved the cold to come join us for the wrenching and jawing.

Trapper, maybe we should come to your place for a construction session????!!!!

That was a great time!! you all missed a really great time if you were not there. What a surprise that Chris and Rueben showed up. It was like a reunion. It was great to meet others that have only been names on the forum.
Can't wait for the next one!

I heard that rumor.  Not to contribute to the rumor mill, but I "heard" that we may be partaking in those famous links down Pittsburg way.

Thanks Greg for hosting the session, it was great. Enjoyed meeting the gang.
Thanks Allen for tuning my bike.  I really think it is running better than ever and I really learned a lot. It was pretty cold coming and going but was really worth the trip. Looking forward to many other meets.

Always time well spent.

That Triumph is one fine piece of iron, Bob.

Thanks for the cup of Joe, Kristi.

With a little more heat, I might just ride next time, hehehe :lol:
You are not paid for what you do, but rather for what you will do and when that time comes, you will be highly underpaid.
