Hi Bill,
Well Done Congratulations on your RV find.
Looks like a chick Magnet to me Let us know how you make out
I too have fancied one of those for years. I hope the fuel savings make up for the purchase price and that you GO FAR and have a lot of FUN.
It would be good to see you at XSEast on two wheels or in the RV

Hey Max,the xs east is in my plan as I wanna do my travelling east cause I have been going west the last 20 years so time to see places I haven't seen in years or never saw.
Long bike rides are gone for me When I ride I have always been a cruiser,out for the ride and have a look see what is around the next corner.
South western OH and south eastern IN are GREAT places to ride along the OH River.But nothing like putting along a smooth black top road out in the middle of nowhere and can be alone in your thoughts plus I pull off at almost every pull off there is to have a look see.

My XS has been an important part of my life..we know each other

I did do a lunch with a friend at what we call train camp.next to the tracks and we camp..private five acres and secluded.The van did all right.

So Bill, have you cooked any hotdogs on the motor of that new RV yet?

[STEPPENWOLF]

Not yet Doug,I have a stove and microwave but cooking a chicken on the engine sounds good haven't done that in years,pizza is good but can't be too long cause it dries out.If you can put in foil you can cook it on an engine.
One time on my 11 I had bratts on the engine and put a small hole in the foil and smeled like a brat riding down the road.

Thought of you today Dbeardslee..the sky diver who got knocked out after his jump..if I was strapped onto you said if something went wrong I will cut you loose I think you are the only one I would trust to be strapped to jumping out of a plane but would hate to hear the sweet nothings in my ear as you scare the chit out of me

I had a student once that none of the other tandem masters would touch. She was 5'3" tall and weighed 235 pounds. Usually you do a thing called a sit-back drill after you get the canopy open, and it involves repositioning the leg straps to make things more comfortable. But when you get a student with that much leg fat those straps aren't going any place. I told her beforehand it was going to be uncomfortable under canopy, and I took her down a little lower than usual to shorten the canopy ride. But she decided to complain anyway.

She said "This is REALLY uncomfortable! Isn't there anything you can do?!"

I said, "Well, there's one thing I can do, and you'll be more comfortable... right up until the point where sudden-impact-trauma kills the hell out of you. I'd rather get you down as fast as I safely can."

She didn't complain again for the rest of the ride.

As far as getting knocked unconscious - I know two jumpers that happened to. One got kicked in the head and took a seven-thousand foot nap. I asked him what it was like waking up at terminal velocity, and he said "Man, I knew I was skydiving!" The other was a girl who passed out due to oxygen deprivation on a high altitude jump. I was on that load, and she passed out right as the formation left the tailgate. Nobody noticed she was missing, and she fell somewhere in the neighborhood of twelve-thousand feet asleep. She woke up and dumped her canopy, and all was good.

You know what they say - if at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.

Think I remember you telling me about her.I know you Doug and you would do everything in your power to make me chit my pants
