In response to numerous emails I’ve received...
Top 10 reasons I haven’t been around much.
10) Madly in love with Neko Case.
She won't respond to my emails, but I know she wants me.

9) Dog died (10 years ago).
8) Won 1st prize (‘90s) at a vintage bike meet. (Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group Montreal Rally).
7) A cutie told me I was too old.
6) Starting manopause.
5) Self-conscious about wearing prescription glasses for the first time.
4) Can see everything way too clearly now.
3) Started adjusting speed (slower) to save gas on long rides.
I still speed all the time, I just don't overspeed as much.
2) Bike running IMPECCABLY since last flip.
Rapidly approaching 00000 kms again (and looking it).
1) Boxerworks is no longer feels like a grassroots airhead website.
It feels more like a typical “Official BMW Store” website now.
I’ll surely adjust to it with time.
Thanks guys,

Your presence makes all the difference, GS.

Sorry about the dog.

Looking forward to some hi-tech on anti-fog compounds.5) Self-conscious about wearing prescription glasses for the first time.
I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

I figure some of the reason Boxerworks feels a little less lively is that a few of the more flamboyant posters have drifted off or have toned it down a lot. There was dissatisfaction expressed about the heated discussions, even on Speakeasy. I thought it was just getting good. In other words, the discussions/arguments, especially when they were actually respectful, livened up the place.
So here goes...........gspd..............it's clear that you don't ride that bike of yours. Very pretty, but once again, we've never seen a picture of you riding (or flipping) it.
And.........oil........tires.........tubeless on snowflakes.........wheel bearings........religion.......politics.......liberal........conservative...........Fox News........c'mon. We can get the spirit back. Choose your topic. Oops, forgot guns.
