#114 & #115 is done and will be on way for #116 to St Paul, Texas. (NE Dallas)
I’m having 2nd thought about InZane this year. So many in Colorado that need my service. I don’t know yet I will see what happen when I get home and I only have like 1-1/2 months at home then go on road again...

Bill, you have been gone since last year and worked on a boatload of motorcycles.

Thank you very much for your service by the way.  (I didn't need you this year, but did twice in the past.)

If you decide you need a break, sure you will be missed by all who know you, but no one could possibly fault you for not making it to Roanoke in June.

I know from the past that you like to take care of emergencies and easier quick fixes at Inzane, not major tear downs and big jobs that will take all your time up.  People should not ride to rallies (long or far) on bikes that already need tires and brakes and ordinary maintenance before they even leave their house.

Do what you (and your family) want to do.  You owe us nothing.  We are the ones that owe you my friend.   cooldude

Bill,

Jess said it very well indeed. It's always good to see your smiling face, and you have been one of the 'constants' at IZ. Your reputation is sterling, and we all admire you for the good person you are. You do what you need to do, and we'll be OK with whatever that might be. If I see ya, then that would be nice... If not, I will certainly understand. Like so many, I, too, appreciate your help when it was very much needed... You'll always have a good thought coming from this grateful rider!!!

Jess and Bruce are right. You've been gone a long time. If you don't make Roanoke, you will be missed. But, you won't lose any esteem from us.  cooldude

   You have done quite a bit of good on your tour around the states.
We all look at your being at Inzane as  one of the things that has become expected.
  But after your tour I think  we all would understand you not being here with us.
      I have to say, I for one will miss you and watching   a master at work..
    Can't tell you though how it hurts to see you working  those late nights to keep
our beloved  Valkyries on the road and back to their owners before  the rally  is over.
      God bless you Bill for your work!

I won't quote all the other folks, just know that you're always welcome at my place and I'm looking forward to seeing you again, regardless of where that is.

Do what you gotta do.   cooldude

HEY Bill.  Kudos to you and your great service to our community!

You're coming to Colorado?  I didn't know that.  I'd like to buy your services if you can shoehorn me into your schedule. I have two daily riders that can benefit from your expertise on the carbs and other tunables.  Not to mention George, my blown bobber that apparently has a bad accelerator pump and is hard to start when cold.  I understand if that one's off the table - it's nowhere near stock.  But if you like a challenge - there it is!  You can PM me or email valkstuff-AT-horseapple.com to comm offline. I'm 45 minutes N of CO Springs if you are stopping there.

THANKS!

Mark, I may be sending you a small welding project.  My unobtanium dragon hitch cover came off the mount, and needs a tac job. I'll snap and send some pics.
