As for me, I'm working some desperately needed OT due to losing my second job & missing work while Mama was so sick. Plus unpacking. I hope to have most of it done by Sunday so I can look for 2nd job. Christmas is coming soon & I want my kids to have a good Christmas this year to make up for last year's. Plus get some stuff paid up & off. And extra money. I have big plans for next year that involve another bike & 3 road trips! ,

I don't know you or her. But I'm sorry for your loss.

Wow...Sounds like your a Rock...Indeed it has to be said as I think I speak for ALL of TWFix when I say I'm sorry to hear about your Loss. I'm fortunate enough to have both of my parents alive and well...But I've lost my Grandfather who I was VERY close to...It's been about 2 years and I still think about him everyday.

But You seem to have a good head on your shoulders and also very ambitious...3 Road trips...where to??

Losing a parent is hard. I lost my dad 20 years ago when I was in my teens. But I was very close to him, moreso than what I was to my mom. We didn't have the best of relationships but I still love her. Before she passed we were able to reconcile alot of issues, which made her passing easier to handle, I think.

I'm not ambitious, just stubborn, hardheaded, & very independent. Plus I'm alwas looking a reason to ride!

I have a short weekend trip to New Orleans in the spring. I'm riding there with a couple of friends. Late spring is supposed to see me close to the Gap (first time to go!) at what *was* going to be a southern CF Rally, but I don't know if the Rally is still going to happen (the rally was going to be elsewhere, then I was heading to the Gap). Regardless, I still want to go. Later in the summer I'm trying to make a trip to Austin, Tx to see some friends there. I had been making that trip once a year it seems, but couldn't go this year. Austinites are good people with some damn good roads. It's a short trip too, only about 1,000 mile round trip. And a friend of mine is trying to talk me into a trip to Arkansas to ride the mountains...we'll see.

Austin is the fartherest I've ridden so riding to the Gap is going to be a big deal for me. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I'll be able to make them all, but if not I'll be happy with doing one or two.

It beats the hell out of all the commuting I do, which is about all the riding I get to do....and I live about 5 minutes from work. I get maybe a couple of 200-250 mile rides in a month.
