Dave,

Welcome back. This is uncle Jerry from Okieland. I rode a Harley FLTHPI. I missed the ride for Vinnie. I was in the middle of wheat harvest. My brother and I stopped and visited with John and Lil face to face. It was nice visiting with them. I talk with them a few times a year.
I will guess the lady from Hawaii was Lei, South Dakota probably is Val Australia may be Louise. Talk to more later.

Vita Bona - Life is good,

Jerry

Karen,

What exactly what is wrong with a 30" inseam??? <asked in jest>, A dwarf is a little people who has a normal size body and short legs and arms. So I guess that I am a six foot dwarf. I tend to sit tall. When I had my heart attack a young lady was pushing me in a wheel chair. She left me and went to make an adjustment. When she turn and looked at me and said, "OMG, how tall are you? six foot eight? six foot ten?" She didn't believe me until I stood up.

As usual I waited until late to check the forum. I got busy about quitting time. Now I am sitting n the dark. OH well. No bit deal. See you later.

Jerry

Absolutely nothing wrong with my 30" inseam, as long as I can sit a bike LOL.  The Ninja would have been perfect for me, but I'm afraid my riding career is over.  Riding two up with Mack was plenty for me.  You take care, now.

Hi Karen

Heard from Uncle Jerry last night that You are trying to revive the Old Forum, hope you have good Luck.

Hi Dave

We are trying to remember and place You from Vinnies Memorial Ride, did You use a different name then, the only one from the ride that was from Nebraska We remember was Mattoid. And yes the tree and Vinnies Kids are all grown up now. If You are the one I'm thinking off You gave Heather a ride to the Fire Station on Your Bike for the Tree planting. And Heather is now married for 3 years already.

Thank you kindly, John and Lil.  We'll see what happens.  I've had a few bites.

 Thanks Jerry, I'm preparing for corn and soybean harvest at the moment. This summer was a busy one, I only rode about 6,000 miles.

 Take care, Dave

 Thanks Karen, I'm sure you could ride a motorcycle if you found the right one! If not, I hope you find/found an activity that keeps you young, active, and happy.

 Dave

 Great memory, I am the one that Heather rode with to the station. My given name is Dave, and yes I have used Mattoid as a forum name. Mattoid is a diagnosis, thankfully not mine! I'm not sure how my forum name got switched from that to ne243, it had to be my doing.

 I'm glad to hear from you and congratulations to Heather on her marriage, she and her brother are great kids.

I'm not looking, but if I get an offer, you never know.
