So Long Marianne!

"We met when we were almost young
Deep in the green lilac park
You held on to me like I was a crucifix
As we went kneeling through the dark"

I should shed a tear!

I asked Daniel to remove me from the staff. I hardly ever log in anymore, looks like 10 months ago was the last time, that feels like it was on a different planet. Yeah, I still ride, yeah, I still have a bike but I go about it all differently these days.

Daniel, I will be forever grateful for PNW Riders that happened to me at the right time and I made so many friends, some of them still here. In whatever form this forum will end up existing, I might still pop in if I can and smile. Ciao!

Stay safe my friend. Good luck to you and thanks for all that you have done for riders in the Northwest.

Ciao' bella! CU down the road...

Well, Darlin', now that you are not a moderator you are free to troll the heck out of the forums.

curve addict · Dec 15th 2020, 01:19 PM

I, for one, miss your smiling face.

DGA · Dec 18th 2020, 12:24 PM

Well shit...maybe the new forum software will have a thumbs down emoji... But understandable. See ya around.

I thought some day I would meet and ride with you. But that's how things are on forums, people come and people go. Kind of sad to see old timers go....Not very many left.......

Hey! My favorite moderator.

See ya sometime!

Well there goes the last of the remaining adult supervision.

Nothing for it, but to start an illegal gravel/BBQ sauce/chain/oil/how to carry concealed thread.

Then skip out and go riding while shenanigans ensue.

No Prisoners!

I didn't want to trigger anyone's PTTD (Post Traumatic Thread Disorder).

You were the reason I came to the forum... back when it was the other forum. Such an experience. Thank you!
