Our R65 forum administrators and moderators have a rather thankless job. We all really don't notice them until something kicks over our rice bowl, so to speak.

Today, Thursday 29 August 2013, is one of our Global Moderator's birthday. I'm giving a large shout out to Mike Fugere, (aka: nhmaf) for all his efforts on our behalf.

Happy Birthday, Mike.  [smiley=dankk2.gif] [smiley=clap.gif] [smiley=beer.gif]

Now get out there and ride!

Thanks very much, everyone! :)

We're sliding in and out of thunderstorms yesterday and today, so not much riding today - hopefully tomorrow!
(might even combine it with a trip to the gun club).

Boys, boys, boys... Have both you youngsters covered by a good ten years.

Now I'm wondering whom might be our "senior" member.  ::)
I know I rank Bengt Phorqs by a few.

I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that I am older than Bob AND Rob.   :-/
Keep your bike in good repair: motorcycle boots are not comfortable for walking.

Happy Birthday, Mike, ya ol' buzzard!  Just came up for air from under the car...

I think I beat Grandpa Bob by a year and three months but not even close to ol' decrepit Monte or some of our more "experienced" members.  I think with this psych-boost I might even feel a bit younger for a couple days  if I can remember where I put my muscle relaxers and pain pills!  :P

Let us all revel in our success at staying on the right side of the dirt.  Monte "Methusela" Miller has me beat by about a year and change.  I just qualified for Medicare a couple of weeks ago.
