Thread: Old gear grinder from N. California

Tweet

Welcome to the sight Bob. Where's 153? I don't recall that one. My favorite local ride highway is highway 20 from Nevada City to the coast. We call it the shake and bake ride when we do it on the Harleys! Like your track roadster a whole heck of a lot!

Welcome to you DeckOfficer (and your beautiful "T") from the right coast! LOVE the photo's and thank you for sharing them! (the story is cool also!)

Nice thing about Speed's, all roads are smooth, nicely curved two lane highways. Picture of each event below.

Thanks for the suggestions Bob, my car time has been limited some lately but hopefully I can make it to one of these before too long. Nice looking venues and rides.

Pat

Whip, you are slipping to not have introduced me to this site, Stu and Pat, hope to see you at a foothill gathering. Coloma is where 1 mile long Hwy 153 is located.





At the Speed's Diner gathering, sometimes we run down to Yosemite National Park.

Robin,

Would that be a reference to the HAMB?

A belated "Welcome aboard".

Cool lookin' tracker, and good discussion on the grunt vs. hp and it's real world affects. You should fit in just fine.

Well, you'll fit in if you take heed to one thing. Beating dead horses, or berating other equine species won't get you in too much trouble, but the passing of a cat on here is a VERY solemn occasion. So back off on that swingin' of the carcass thing! We've got a rather aged member here from South Florida. He's our version of the crazy cat lady down the street. I don't see any posts here from him, so you're probably already in deep poop..................but then you're from California, so expectations are already low.

The site is small, so it's easier than some other places to put your oar in the water and not be ignored. You've already seen we even give equal time to the Kiwis. You do know they're all insane.........................that's why we keep them on those small islands down there. And don't believe anything bad Whip says about me, he's a pathological liar (though he's got a heart of gold)..............especially if he mentions something about people from Washington being stump broke or whatever.............but I've got pictures of him with sheep.........................

Now you got me confused, but don't worry, us left coasters are typically in a fog. Tbuckets forum is mine and I just checked my member's list, are you using a different handle over there?

For the older gentleman in South Florida, this is the truth, I love all animals and have owned cats and dogs. I just got back from a week in Mountain Home, Arkansas (BucketHead Bash) and I'm still talking a bit folksy. So truly disregard the swinging of.....

And in defense of Whip, I hear the sheep in his neck of the woods are the agressors.

I'm sure when (if?) he gets back to his keyboard he'll be happy to know you share in the love of critters.
