Hey, if you were closer, I could use the practice! :-) Got the tube
done. Not fast, but done. Made a point of doing it while Jeff's at
work so he wouldn't keep "helping" me. ;-)

So, back on topic...this Scrapefest really has me excited. Scrape,
you better get your buns out there.,.none of this waffling. Looks
like this is going to be a good opportunity to meet all the RMD biker
scum Jeff's been hangin' with the last, uh, what is it...20 or so
years?! Beside, I'm expecting I'll get properly de-n00bed.

Jutifiably so. The only two tubes I've messed up in the last 20 years
have both been yours. I owed you a tube.

Waffling.... Reminds me of the discussion on proper folding of egg
whites. Is the correct technique anything like *not* pinching
tubes? That would explain an awful lot ;-)

Paula,
While we will all miss Jeff's tales of the misadventures of "his
friend", what with the chainsawing of the front tire of the XR and
all, we are all very proud that he has found someone who can
appreciate him and take care of him. I think he's earned it (and that
he's a lucky sob).

I think that something is mellowing him a bit though. I haven't
hear of any recent jeffications in quite a while.

OMT. If Scrape makes it, and I can get Deb to skip the youngest
granddaughter's third birthday that week, he and I will definitely be
along for the chick ride (as long as you all don't make it too rough
and tough for me).
(I may need some help from someone to properly jet the Husaberg. I
can, and will, quickly and easily have the GasGas ready for Idaho, but
this 4-stroke jetting stuff is sort of new to me.)

Good Riding!

Jim
Fort Collins is just past halfway from here to Scrapefest.

I guess that makes me a lucky dob.

Not mellowing...he's getting Paula-fied. Been teaching him to knit.
Apparently, it's taking its toll. He was complaining about a hurt
thumb last night. Nearly had to call the waaaahhhhmbulance. ;-)

>I haven't
> hear of any recent jeffications in quite a while.

The weather here hasn't been helping; however, you could say that he
Jefficated some folks in UT taking them on 5MOH. So much so that they
all weenied out on the originally planned loop and headed straight
back to camp (where the malted sports drink container was nicely iced
down...) while Jeff rode on. There is something about a snow & ice
ride this Sunday...

> OMT.  If Scrape makes it,

In UT, someone proudly presented his buttocks as a target for the
potato gun though I never did hit it...came close a couple of times.
Seeing as how Scrape seems to enjoy baring all, he'll have to be in
attendance so I can practice my sharp shooting. It's the least he can
do, don'tchya think?

I'll try riding nearly anything, but generally it's not pretty or
fast, so you'll probably be ok. I'm a little concerned about
following Tami... :-D

If you're coming out I-80, Laramie is directly on your route! Hope it
works out for you to make it.

Still not an idjit....but does question one's judgement :-)

Not touching this one as I can truly and properly operate a sewing machine
(do I get testosterone points back if 6 hours of said use on Dec 26, 2008
was for the sole purpose of attaching 50 bajillion patches to 3 new Boy
Scout uniforms?)

scrape has already begun collecting excuses not to attend, please refrain
from providing legitimate fodder for that list. <VBG>

I hear that she's fast for sure, but your biggest worry by *following* Tami
will be the possibility of being hit by snapped and discarded bike parts.
