Merry Christmas
« on: December 23, 2008, 01:00:46 AM »
Well Christmas is almost upon us and for those 'Down Under' it is almost perfect riding weather - I certainly feel for our brethren in more northerly climes. For your generosity of time and effort in making me feel welcome and helping with a number of answers to some fairly ordinary questions, 'Thank you'.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to wish one and all, and all your families, a:

Very Merry Christmas
[/color][/b]

I trust that you will be able to spend time with those that matter to you the most, and may the season bring all that you had hoped.

And if you are heading off on holidays, please take it easy on the roads and I hope to 'see' you in the New Year.

Take care
Tim

Same to you, Tim.  In fact, I've been listening to Kevin "Bloody" Wilson's "Kev's Kristmas" album all morning!  ;D

This should be a good Christmas for our family.

Several firsts in that all four grandchildren will be here together; both son's and their wives will join us; first time great-grandmother will see all her great-grandchildren together,

And we're most thankful that our Soldier-son will be home for Christmas... So many he has spent in far away and dangerous places. He departs for Afghanistan, first week in January, for his fourth World Tour.

Peace to all,

Merry Christmas to you-all.

I get to work on the eve, which means I won't even wake up until about 3 PM on Thursday!

Which reminds me, I need to get to the library and check out a bunch of movies for the long weekend ahead.

I also get to work New Years eve, and will be driving home from work with the "liquidated" crowd...

Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas to all my two wheeled friends!

We're especially thankful for our June gift of our first grandchild.  This will be her first Christmas and the entire family is gathering this afternoon at our home.  

Hope to see my daughter, her husband, their daughter, my son and his wife.  My son-in law's father and stepmother are visiting from the North Carolina mountains & should join us as well for dinner.  

It's supposed to hit 61F (16C) with clouds.  I'm scheduled to blow the leaves off the driveway, sidewalk, deck & lawn (again).  Sure beats shoveling snow.

Very best wishes,

Ed

Merry Christmas everyone! I thank the proper energies out there that kept me alive and I thank all on this Forum for just being there!!! So many friends now and a wonderful season upon which to partake of family love and friend's steadfastness and endless support.

All the Best! Sue
From a very white snowy Meaford by Georgian Bay, Ontario. Rumour has it that All across Canada will be having a white Christmas, the first time this has happened since 1971. And here some of you thought the whole place was one big iceberg all the time! LOL! Just kidding because members on this forum are very smart!

I would also like to extend my best holiday wishes to all my forum friends here at R65.org.  I hope everyone gets "a little something" for his or her bike in their stocking or under the tree!  ;)

Merry Christmas to you all!
This is such a great group of people and I'm thankful for each one of you.  

I'm supposed to pick up my Mom at the "crack of dawn" (Bwwaaaaahahahahahahaha!   [smiley=Oscar.gif] ).  Well, I will be picking her up early so we can have a nice Christmas breakfast at my brother's place.   ;D  It's all within 10 miles of here so it won't take long at all to get there.  Got the presents completed and wrapped and ready to go.  

My niece is down from school in Portland, Oregon.  She had an adventure getting here from there, and ended up getting a ride with some other people she met on the shuttle on the way to the airport who were coming to Santa Rosa too and decided to drive instead of trying to wait it out.   Good thing they did.  It all works out!

You all who are having to work, take care out there.

I'm at work.  It looks cold outside, but no new precipitation and the roads are clear, now, so they should not be a problem.  No snow in the forecast for awhile.

The Merriest of Christmases to all of you fine folks here.
Melena, enjoy your Mom and brother, and Rob, wrap it up at work and enjoy your time off.
Keep healing up from that crash too, ok? That'll be my New Years wish for you.
Still see you in Johnson City in June, and a whole buncha R65 regulars too, I hope?

Happy Holidays to you all! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
