July 2009 finds me still in FL. The salt is to wet and rough to use for
anything but food or icey roads. Anyway 8 August is the SCTA Speed
Week start and we are going to need the extra month to get her perfect.
Well closer anyway...

June 2009, and with the 4TH still days away, the fire works has done
already started here. Got a call from Oliver, the Love Ride guy, and
he's saying him and some other motor cycle enthu-zes-asst guys are
testing and tuning with some special guests and machines at the salt
flats, Bonneville, around the 4TH of July or so and come on Bill, bring
that double shovel. AX me? I am on the way. I can't leave here till the
1st of July so then north to get the bike on the trailer/w
ramp, head west and pick up my son Bill, pit crew. So I calls Hunts and
he says come and get her Bill, she ain't gonna be happy till she hits
the salt. So The Family are all going north for the 4TH in Michigan
like
millions of others, so I got to get her the by late the 2nd cause they
hits the road the 3rd. Just enough time to get this boat secure for the
summer Load up and roll. I have a feeling that me and bill will see
some fireworks as we run on west, I-80. Now not to get sentimental, but
every time I make this trip I think it might be me my last. Over the
years I have said goodbye more than a few NOMADs and we was having a
blast. Bill and
I will try to hit every party we can find along the way there, and back
to Florida. Fun is where you make it happen and always try to leave
before the funs
over... Anyway it's raining here in FL and even though I have to leave
a month early, I am ready to be just like Willie sings "On the Road
Again". Wink Longnecker, Audio Art, is back from Yankee land and says
three good days of eight in Laconia was fun. He did the Rendezvous as
well and the stage was down hill, a natural amphitheater and with the
rain made for fun in the mud. Them fellers know how to party...So I
will look forward to seeing you all some place or other. I will be the
guy with the Double Shovel on an open trailer behind a red Dodge Ram
Diesel. Honk if you like fast Harleys and don't forget I still have a
few Hooked on Speed t-shirts left. Wink and I are working on the MP3
thing so we will have free down loads soon, even if not as soon as
thought.
