Author Message   Roadrunr Posted on Thursday, January 08, 2004 - 05:25 am:        Phillip, Your wifey ride on the back of that m2? Bring her.   Roadrunr Posted on Thursday, January 08, 2004 - 05:27 am:        BILL, I got some bolts I can do some beer swapping with! Not sure what they go to but what the hell.   B2m2 Posted on Saturday, January 10, 2004 - 08:31 pm:        Jeff, I got the new bolts and isolators today!! M2 reassembly has started.......we'll need to have a beer anyway, thanks for your offer. See ya a at Tom's Ranch.   Hootowl Posted on Saturday, January 10, 2004 - 11:33 pm:        I do not envy you the task of reassembling an M2. There's no easy way to do it. There's an easier way than the manual specifies, but it's still not easy. Let me know if you can use another set of hands. Jeff   Buellistic Posted on Sunday, January 11, 2004 - 02:56 pm:        HOUSTON BUELLERS: Whom ever has the final say on the BBQ for the 14th of Febuary(SAT.) please give me a call... OR "PING" me your phone number and "i" will call you... My home phone is (813)661-2664... Have "QUESTIONS", WHEN, WHAT, and WHERE of BBQ... In BUELLing LaFayette ljenne@tampabay.rr.com   Road_thing Posted on Sunday, January 11, 2004 - 06:30 pm:        The 14th is looking good. Wives are of course welcome and will not be subjected to any domestic chores at Rancho Chingadero. But if any of them want to split some firewood or string some barb wire that's fine with me... Children are also welcome, but you'll have to do your own baby-sitting! Given the Houston weather in February, some people may decide to come in their cars, that's not a problem, we've got plenty of room for parking. I don't have a whole lot of bed space, though, so if you want to spend the night, plan on camping out! I've got a bare room in the garage that could accommodate a few bedrolls, and there's plenty of room for tents or such-like outdoors. I'll be asking for a firm head count as the date approaches, so watch this space! If the group starts to get large, I may have to pass the hat to help cover the food & refreshments. r-t   Philip Posted on Tuesday, January 13, 2004 - 05:57 pm:        please do pass the hat. i don't expect you to foot the bill for this bash. thanks for the kids invite, i have an 11 year old daughter who loves a campfire. the wife will drive up in the car but unless there is ice on the road i will ride. sounds like a fun time for all!   Road_thing Posted on Tuesday, January 20, 2004 - 07:56 pm:        OK, I want to keep this thread up on the screen, so here's what I need you Houston Buellers to do: If you're coming out to El Rancho Chingaderoon the 14 of next month, e-mail me at tom_mccarroll@yahoo.com and give me a head count for your group. That'll let me plan for victualling and refreshments. I'll put together a mailing list and, shortly before the big pachanga I'll contact everybody that's expressed an interest and get a final confirmation. Then I'll e-mail directions, etc. to all the confirmed attendees. This is a no-lose deal--if the weather is good, there's lots of nice roads to ride, followed by food and camaraderie. If the weather doesn't co-operate, there's lots of room to park your cars/trucks, followed by food and camaraderie! Of course, Hootowl will be riding his amphibious X-1 regardless of WHAT the weather does! How's that sound? r-t p.s.--Blake, did you get my e-mail? We'd love to have you & Mrs. Blake join us...   Roadrunr Posted on Tuesday, January 20, 2004 - 09:16 pm:        SOUNDS LIKE A WEINER, WIENER, WEENER, OH HELL! A hot dogity good time!.....Amazingly enough Shannon said OK!   Road_thing Posted on Tuesday, January 20, 2004 - 10:45 pm:        Ya gotta love that girl...   Philip Posted on Wednesday, January 21, 2004 - 03:19 am:        looks like we're in! the wife, daughter and myself. will send the email. thanks for putting this shindig together.   Hootowl Posted on Wednesday, January 21, 2004 - 05:35 pm:        I have busted another rear shock. Unless my front mount comes in so I can mount the new style shock I bought, I will be in my '67 Chevy. Here's to hoping the UPS man comes and the rain doesn't.   Roadrunr Posted on Wednesday, January 21, 2004 - 06:51 pm:        How the heck do you keep bustin shocks, you can't weigh 180 lbs....... wet!!!   Hootowl Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2004 - 08:52 am:        I have no idea. The boinger is still there, but all the fluid has leaked out of the blown out seal in the rear of the shock. Makes for an interesting ride.   Road_thing Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2004 - 10:42 am:        Hoot, I almost hope you have to bring the car--I've never seen you when you weren't wearing leathers! r-t   Roadrunr Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2004 - 04:39 pm:        HA, bet he still wears the leathers, maybe even the helmet!   Philip Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2004 - 06:52 pm:        he needs to roll out of those stoppies instead of crashing down on that shock so hard!   Hootowl Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2004 - 11:05 pm:        I have never done a stoppie. I don't carry a change of underwear in my tank bag. Just for that RT, I am renting a leather tux if it rains.   Hootowl Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2004 - 11:09 pm:        BTW, got the shock bracket today...   Roadrunr Posted on Friday, January 23, 2004 - 05:22 am:        If ya need another hand give me a holler hoot.
