Sad to hear about your Canine mate Menace
amazing how their loyalty and devotion grow on you,
also Mine and I reckon every other OB are thinking of TB’s matealways sad when you hear of these events occuring to people you know.
The country where you boys were riding looks smick :woohoo: very nice. Nice wheel stand over that creek crossing Drew.Ollie

November 1, 2010 at 12:09 pm #189918So much bad news for one report. Very sad to hear. The big C sucks ass we have it in the family and loosing a dog can be like loosing a child. Not fun by any means. Will be thinking of you guys. On a positive note the pics looked great though.
November 1, 2010 at 1:26 pm #189946Iam so sorry to hear about your dog menace and as for your ride well sometimes it just happens to turn out bad at least you got out there and had a go
November 1, 2010 at 7:33 pm #189947Condolences on your mate Tonka Menace, I know the Hound meant a great deal to you. You even mentioned him on your very first post on OBT.
As for your crap day on the bike, we all have them from time to time, but to have a whole heap of crap things go down in one weekend sucks big time. Keep your chin up mate,happy days will reign supreme again.
Cheers
MickNovember 1, 2010 at 8:26 pm #189948thanks for all the well wishes dudes.
they mean a lot coming from mates
im kind of OK now. Sammy is a dribbling mess still
but she is getting there.
its just the little things like expecting him to be at the door when i get home or under my feet while im cooking dinner,
that sh!t hurts
as for the riding….
it could have been anything i have already blamed, it could well be one of the bullsh!t, figjam reasons that TB has given :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
na, it was just a bad day. :laugh: :laugh:
maybe i was supposed to stack :dry: to make the family trifecta :S
and Lord Kato kept me upright against all odds….
so praise the Lord boys :laugh: :laugh:

I reckon Nickj might back you up on that one Scott:D
Hey Jeffro from what everyone tells me the might FE550E are not to bad at throwing the odd rock or two.
Also I had the 16LT tank on for this ride, it sure makes a difference on the front end.
November 2, 2010 at 3:32 am #189971Sorry to hear the dad news mate my thoughts are with you and Sammy.

Yeh Bill, heard that too
. Almost bought myself a 16L tank the other week but decided I didn’t really need it. Good time to buy one though with the dollar the way it is.
