Pasta Burner Posted July 11, 2021 #1 Posted July 11, 2021 Haven’t seen any posts from @cowpuc in a while just hoping all is ok.
RDawson Posted July 11, 2021 #2 Posted July 11, 2021 Puc usually pulls his disappearing act when he and Tip go visit the grandkids. I assume and hope that’s all that’s going on. 3
SpencerPJ Posted July 11, 2021 #3 Posted July 11, 2021 His page said he visited 7 hours ago, it also says expired membership 🤷

WRIDR Posted July 12, 2021 #5 Posted July 12, 2021 hey Pucster, whar the hyall are YOU??? Hugs, WRIDR
Condor Posted July 13, 2021 #6 Posted July 13, 2021 I've been wondering the same thing since he's so active and one of our mainstay members. I know he has health issues and hope that it's just visiting the GK's....
Pasta Burner Posted July 13, 2021 Author #7 Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) I only ask because yes as @Condor says he’s a mainstay member and this is the time of year when his experience and advice is invaluable and so much appreciated and anticipated. Hoping all is well. I’m still new here and haven’t met any of you in person yet, but I have a connection with a lot of y’all. Edited July 13, 2021 by Pasta Burner 3
saddlebum Posted July 14, 2021 #8 Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Maybe @cowpucswitched to an E-Bike forum .. Since him and tips got E-Bkes. On that note, Knowing old puc he probably found one with no second gear so he could score a deal. Edited July 14, 2021 by saddlebum
SpencerPJ Posted July 14, 2021 #9 Posted July 14, 2021 So he posted on youtube 2 days ago, I'm guessing that the expired membership status means he has moved on to his next chapter in life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ag5sECa0dj0 1
RDawson Posted July 15, 2021 #10 Posted July 15, 2021 @videoarizonahave you heard from the Pucster? Kinda quiet around here without him stirring the pot.

Not a word, Ronnie. I sent him a private text as well. He seems to be ok judging from his ebike riding with Tip on you tube. I'll call in another day or so if he doesn't check in..... 3
videoarizona Posted July 21, 2021 #12 Posted July 21, 2021 Yesterday, I left a message on his phone asking him to check in as we miss him. Hopefully he'll drop in and say hi at some point. david
videoarizona Posted July 21, 2021 #13 Posted July 21, 2021 Just heard from Cowpuc. He and Tippy are doing well. Taking time with grand kids and playing around with their Ebikes! He knows his membership is expired and probably won't renew. "we are on to the next phase of life"...in his words. He does miss us and wants me to say "HI" to all for them! So we shall see where the Pucster ends up...and I'll be keeping in touch with him and let you know how they are doing. Sniff, david 2 1
SpencerPJ Posted July 21, 2021 #14 Posted July 21, 2021 I'm sure it's tough as I believe he has given up riding. I wish him the best and thank him for anytime and every time he has helped me. His extensive knowledge will be missed. Just like another older Great, Dingy, I saw on a Facebook Venture group that he recently sold his yellow Venture / vMax ride.
Pasta Burner Posted July 21, 2021 Author #15 Posted July 21, 2021 Thanx @videoarizona for the update. Glad all is well and he is enjoying life with his “other” family . Wish him all the best from here and I can’t Over exaggerate how much thanks are to be given. I know he knows how much he’s loved and appreciated, but don’t hesitate to tell him again. - Tom
WRIDR Posted July 22, 2021 #16 Posted July 22, 2021 Pucster checks in, but is 'checking out'!! Wow, sure didn't want to end The Day with News like THIS!!! Let's hope he drops by occasionally to say "Hi". Rgds, Wordpecker

Sniff, david Thanks Vaz. Remind him for us he still has friends here, I miss his humor. 2 1
saddlebum Posted July 22, 2021 #18 Posted July 22, 2021 Another of the old guard stepping away. Another one to be missed. when you next chat with the old Pucster make sure to let him know saddlebum thinks about him. I am surprised Dingy sold tweety though they seemed inseparable. He did have another project bike conversion on the go though. I wonder if he completed it. 3
WRIDR Posted August 1, 2021 #19 Posted August 1, 2021 Simply cannot believe The Pucster is GONE!!! This is TRULY a HEART-BREAKER for us; NOBODY can fill THOSE Shoes!! Sadly, WRIDR
Freebird Posted August 10, 2021 #20 Posted August 10, 2021 I have talked to Cowpuc recently. Here is what he wrote to me. I don't think he would mind me sharing it. Hey,, Hi Don! As always, good to hear from you, hope all is well with you folks. Miss you too brother! Life has taken a ton of changes for Cheryl and I, as you probably know, due to my health, we are no longer riding (we did get out for a short spin yesterday, it was great to get out again) and spending a lot of our time in California playing with the grandkids. I am taking a break from cyber world as much as possible as I attempt to sort out this next phase of life for us. Dont give my screen name away though as I plan to be back,, faster, stronger and more able to stir pot. Well, at least able to stir the pot adequately lol. Thanks for touching base my friend, I appreciate it! Tip sends her love as do I!! Me P.S. - we did go thru Sturgis on our way home from California a couple days ago and get this, we got to ride (was driving our car so not actually riding with them) with the Hells Angels!! After 200 miles of riding with them we partied with them a little in a gas station parking lot and Tippy stood in the middle of them and started telling ride stories of days past LOL... I am building a really good supply of ride stories to tell on my return to VR in the future.. PREPARE YOURSELF BROTHER!! 5 4
RDawson Posted August 10, 2021 #21 Posted August 10, 2021 Glad to hear they are doing well. Awaiting his return.
videoarizona Posted August 10, 2021 #22 Posted August 10, 2021 I'm happy to hear!!! Miss them both.... Thanks, Don!!
videoarizona Posted August 10, 2021 #23 Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) My second most favorite picture of Puc and Tippy... Watching sunset over Lake Michigan! Edited August 10, 2021 by videoarizona 5
videoarizona Posted August 10, 2021 #24 Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) My most favorite picture of Puc and Tippy. Both pics taken 3 years ago when I took my RSV out to visit them on way to MD. Never made MD due to rain..... But great trip regardless!! Edited August 10, 2021 by videoarizona 4
