Merry Christmas
« on: December 24, 2011, 11:22:25 AM »
Wanted to send everything good to all of you out there.  I've been a bit out of touch on the forum with the usual busy stuff during the Holidays.  Haven't done much riding or wrenching as of late but try to check the forum whenever I can.

I hope the Christmas Season and the New Year will be a joyous and prosperous one with good health and safe riding for all of you.  I know the past few years have been a tough stretch for a lot of us out there.  I'm hoping we can all pause from our normal stresses and struggles a few days to enjoy family and loved ones during this time, even if for a few days.

Such a great forum here with true good folks.  Ride often, ride safe, and don't pass up that opportunity on the road to enjoy the simple things.  Hope to see you all on the road some day.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,

Mike V.

Hello to everyone and a happy and peaceful Christmas. I enjoy logging into the forum every day. There is so much knowledge here freely available that I feel confident that I can be directed through any problem my 83 R65Ls can throw up. We have a Christmas here in Ireland that is 24 C warmer than 2010 so it is possible  to bike. I am glad to say that I have no issues with rain since I fitted the Dyna coil as reccomended here.
Have a great Christmas and a happy and safe New Year.

I hope everyone out there in R65 land has a joyous holiday and a great New Year.  As our fellow R65 lovers in Deutschland say, "Froeliche Weinachten!"  (Merry Christmas!)   [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

The temperature is a humid 29degrees celsius. It's raining, the Police are still soliciting Christmas bribes, and people are still dying in traffic accidents on the roads but at least there have not been any terror attacks. - Another Christmas in Paradise.

My wife, who is Muslim, has been directing our housemaid, who is Hindu, on how to put up Christmas decorations - Another Christmas in Paradise!

Seasons greetings to all.
