I think the time has come...

[Charles Scappaticci]

Congratulations Rob,

I'm looking forward to seeing your new Connie.  Very Nice!

Dave,

I understand wanting to let it go, I don't think I put 800 miles on
mine last year.  That said, there is no way I'm letting mine go as the
old gal and I still have lots of adventures ahead.  My last brood
leaves the nest in about a year and I will be leaving this nest as
well.  I'd like to get back to northern California and Oregon
sometime, back up to Banff, Canada and beyond and out to Deals Gap and
New England/Northeastern Canada.  Not to mention I want to ride
Australia and New Zealand sometime, although the old GPZ will have to
stay home for that.  At 52,000 miles the GPZ still has a lot of life
in it and hopefully so do I.  I'm thinking a trip to the motocross
track this weekend is in order.  I'm not dead yet.  :-)
