Hi Bud, I wondered when you would decide to join in the fun.
Do you know if Fran is also coming?

I just got some bad news. On Monday I had a cath. dye test done on my heart and they told me the veins are clogging up again and its time for them to go. No more stents, it will be a triple by-pass this time. Its going to happen some time in April. That means I will not be able to go to XSNorth. DAMN! So, I will be cancelling my room shortly and that means it will be avilable to somebody else. If I don't go, I guess Bruce and David will not go either. They were both on the fence and now, I knocked them off as we always go as a group.

Next year I hope.

Mark... My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this rough period.I am saddened to hear of your maladies, but am hopeful you'll gain a most favorable prognosis after the surgery. Medical technology is amazing and has come a long way since my Dad has his triple bypass way back in the mid 70's. There will be other XS events that we will see you at I am sure. Take care...

Good luck, Mark. I had 4 bypasses, including a 99% block, last summer. In on Monday, out on Thursday. Took 3 months in the gym but by then it felt like it never happened.

I did have to winterize the bike in June last year, should be on it next weekend for the first time.

Wasnt in the loop on this one...holy crap... So glad you're completely healthy...amazing how something like one's health or ill health can put things in their proper perspective(s). Glad you're getting back on the FJR it wont take long to regain that "vestibular memory"...Lookin forward to seein ya at Ohio STOC...errrr XSEast...doh!

Wow Mark! that is bad news, health wise, but it IS good news that they found it now and not later. Yes, you will be missed this year, but your health is more important. I wish you the best and my prayers are with you.

Yes, I am planning to go. I reserved a room today. There was still one more room left.

Hi Brent,
That's great news you are coming to the rally. I'm looking forward to seeing you again. By the way, I know you will be able to replenish your maple syrup stock there.
