Brake Pad Posted April 13, 2016 #1 Posted April 13, 2016 This is my last post. On 4-17, is my renewal, that's not going to happen. I to, just make bike payments and don't use the bike. and I'm in the process of changing careers. I'm dropping my contractors license in august, But will be starting CDL course, in 3 weeks. I'm going back out on the road. It's were I was happiest. So I'll be selling my bike & trailer as a package. $16,000.00 2012 Honda Goldwing with 31K & a Matrix Rover Trailer w extra tires and rims. It's been a great 9 years. I've made friendships that will last a life time, and have gone to places, I had never been, because of this group. The wife retires in 3 years, and I have another 15 to go, , there is no work for me in Vero Beach, so I'm heading out for the mileage game. chow for now, see ya on the road
gez Posted April 13, 2016 #2 Posted April 13, 2016 Mike, so sorry to hear this. Glad to have made your acquaintance and to have rode a bit together. Sometimes in life you just gotta do what ya gotta do. Safe travels, wishing you all the best.
BlueSky Posted April 13, 2016 #3 Posted April 13, 2016 Well, you don't need a $12k rig to enjoy riding occasionally. A cheap small bike in the garage might still be nice to have to feel the wind sometimes. Nobody enjoys biking more than Cowpuc and he keeps his investment very low in dollars but huge in stickers, personality, and loads of pleasure packed miles! Maybe Tweeks sister is in your future!?
Trader Posted April 13, 2016 #4 Posted April 13, 2016 $12 a year is a pretty cheap way to stay in touch with the folks you have met here. I enjoy the site for the entertainment value too. Whatever you choose to do...stay safe and have fun!
dave_wells Posted April 13, 2016 #5 Posted April 13, 2016 Good luck on your new path. I do hope it works well for you. We will be here when you get back.

LOL Wish you the best of luck man. Sorry to see ya leave altogether, but I understand. I enjoyed Gunterville and thanks for that as well as many RTE. Stay safe. Dion, either you, or Mikes lovely protege Karen can pick up the pieces. I certainly don't mind a joint commission , like in the justice league, however my schedule is pretty booked...
djh3 Posted April 15, 2016 #15 Posted April 15, 2016 Barry hope we can maybe do a couple meets this summer. The jig is up now man. Steve took the wife and I to THE Mexican joint and oh man!
Barrycuda Posted April 16, 2016 #16 Posted April 16, 2016 Barry hope we can maybe do a couple meets this summer. The jig is up now man. Steve took the wife and I to THE Mexican joint and oh man! Isnt that place awesome?? We are meeting Steve there tonight. After May 4, my summer is free from school until some time early sept. I very much would like to get back to a monthly or every 6 week RTE. I miss the gang.
djh3 Posted April 16, 2016 #17 Posted April 16, 2016 OK Barry I will try to remember that. My class is done June 17th. Then I think I'm off until mid Aug.
ragtop69gs Posted April 16, 2016 #18 Posted April 16, 2016 Hate to see you go, but a man's gotta do, what a man's gotta do. Stay safe out there on the road.
cowpuc Posted April 16, 2016 #19 Posted April 16, 2016 Hate to see you go, but a man's gotta do, what a man's gotta do. Stay safe out there on the road. Hey Raggy,,, does it seem to you like something changes with that statement as age creeps up on us? I was thinking of turning in an addendum to section 12, line 18.5 in our Man Card Manual where that "mans gotta do" clause is found... Something along the line of "after 60 years of age it is acceptable to change "do" to "go" (as in peeee)... Wonder how everyone would vote on that addendum....
ragtop69gs Posted April 17, 2016 #20 Posted April 17, 2016 I have just the solution for your needs. DEPENDS, Cuz you need a little PAMPERING. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
saddlebum Posted April 24, 2016 #21 Posted April 24, 2016 Sorry to see you go Mike. I was happy to make your acquaintance, when I first met you and Karen in Galena and then again in Guntersville, not to mention all the postings we shared on the site. I am sure at some point you will miss us and return to the site so until then brother stay safe.
