Where be Boxer Bolshie?
« on: January 02, 2013, 10:59:57 AM »
Last we heard and saw in the Forum's Restoration Progress Logs, Bolshie had ridden his highly modified R65. That was back in mid-July 2012. Not a peep since. What's happened with this formerly very active member?

Didn't he get a GS and sell the R65? I think his interests changed. I also kind of think this was a great place to buy/sell parts and get advice. You'll probably find him on a GS forum somewhere.

You know how, you're best friends with a guy, life is good.  All the sudden he starts dating some new chick.. never comes around any more, never wants to hang out like old times?

Yea, kinda like that.  Except it's ok if's a 500 lb horse.
