    Is Stator finished with Australia? We need to see him hanging onto Simon's 1000S for dear life.

    How to get a "What's New" feed without the Vortex, and without permanently quitting the Vortex

    Comment


      I reckon there is enough to keep Stator busy in Auzzie until Simon leaves end of May, it gives two months, hell between Pete and Simon they could still give him a good time, I would suggest he moving on to Pete next then Simon, to be taken across the pond.
      What say ye?

        True enough, but without occasional assistance from members like tkent or Flyboy, he is going to have a bit of difficulty hopping from one continent to another.

        Then there is Simon. (And Deb. )
        They do their own continent hopping every once in a while, so they can move him right along.
        Any other members on that short list of continent hoppers?

        OK, it's not a GS, but FedEx does use bikes in some areas:

            Stator prowling with the skunk pack

            ok guys im back, sorry about the delay its finally rained and i have a day or 2 off !
            ive been working 7 days a week traveling 75 mile to work 10 to 12 hrs on the machine and 75 mile home again for 4 months ... im over driving atm

            Stator has been passed to another forum member max parsons for a trip into the mountains



            so Stator arrived safely then hibernated as bears are known to do we managed to rouse him for the outback poker run
            after many late nights cleaning carbs and repairing previous owner bodge repairs i got 4 skunks up and running


            rounded up sons Sean and Dillon to ride a couple of the skunks and a mate Non to ride chucks bike

            poker run was a trip to the Maude pub back to Hay the the Booligal pub plus a stop at the One Tree pub about 150 mile all up

            Stator on my 78 Blue Skunk






            hanging out on the skunk i got from Chuck Hahn

              parts 2 !!

              on to Booliga

              number 2 and 3 sons with Tyler jane




              another mate Screw has his nice looking car along for the trip




              skunk pack



              sadly the old pub burnt down and was replaced



              then on to the One Tree pub










              sadly Stator proved to be a very average poker player pair of 7s ....so not a winner

                Hey , well done old mate .
                We were getting a bit worried Stator was buried in a State forest somewhere .
                I know about the work stuff .
                I'm doing 12ies as well , with a 1 hour commute either side and only getting a day or two a month off . Glad to hear you're OK as well (we was getting a bit worried about Stator and about yourself).
                I'm only to happy to accept Stator and bring him to the States in May , possibly after a trip to Brisbane with Pete and those Katmen (although they look like a pack of bear molesters) . Maybe Sharpy could be encouraged to give him a bit of a cuddle as well ?
                Can't guarantee what condition he'll be in when I'm finished with him though .

                Cheers , Simon .

                  WooHoo! Well done Ozman. Good to see the little fella hasn't been too neglected and still has his head (arms and legs) about him.
