  1. EXACTLY what I was thinking.... he'd definitely be scrambling for the Prozac...
  2. That's what I'm trying to currently work on now....it gets pretty crowded on the LH side w/ the throttle's location & then adding another master cylinder/lever into the mix...we'll see how it works out.
  3. Not very well....Yet. Fortunately, I use the front brake most of the time (LH side)...but I am brainstorming a way to use the rear brake through either a linked brake system or fabing up a new lever that will accommodate the hook better. Also got the same idea for the manual shifter in my 35 y/o pick-up....yet another item on my To-Do list.
  4. Met up w/ my mate yesterday for a spin down Clark creek Rd. I had to try & talk him into getting out as he'd received some news that his Aunt was not doing well health wise earlier that morning. I was patient & gently reminded him that it would be a cryin' shame NOT to get out on such a beautiful day. Over the course of our ride, he ended up thanking me 3 times for talking him into it. The contrast of that cloudless blue sky against all the fresh greenery was amazing.... As an added treat, we ran across this beautiful little colt along this farm on the way back...had to stop for a pic.... Great day for a ride....can't wait till the next one....
  5. Meeting up w/ my friend of 40+ yrs who moved here to Elgin a few months ago....out for some Emtb'ing tomorrow. Heading to the southeast corner of town as he's not explored that area yet.
  6. God put those molecules together bud...she's another blessing in this life from above. That's awesome news!
  7. My oldest G-son now works for Amazon at a huge data center complex in Hermiston OR. He was telling me that they are about to upgrade all their servers to liquid-cooling....part of a big UpScaling phase they're doing.
  8. I used to work for an Engineering firm where the Drafters had 3 screens at each station....pretty cool for drafting. Gamers love that type of stuff.
  9. Before I moved to eastern OR, I used to meet 3+ times a week w/ a small dog group at a local park about a mile away from home. Occassionaly, this one old boy would show up w/ his Pyrenese who was the most laid-back dog I'd ever met. My tiny little Shi Tzu just loved that big beast....I'd tell the others that she thought she was gonna be that big when she grew up.... 40f deg here this morning in Elgin....looking to get another Ride in on the Mullet today. Had a visit yesterday w/ a great friend who also moved here to Elgin from the same neck of the woods I'm from....known him since '78 & now he lives less than a mile away. Have always had 2-Wheels in common...& now Emtn, bikes as well. We also watched the MotoGP race from COTA...cool to see Aprilias on the top 2 steps of the podium...AGAIN.
  10. NO doubt that Vespa is RD power'd....
  11. Well, covered over 350 miles today over to Emmett ID & back. Mrs. Hook's appointments went off w/o a hitch...even enjoyed an All You Can Eat pizza & salad lunch for $13 ea. Even after a pretty dry winter, its nice to see the Elkhorn Mtns. still coated w/ the white stuff as we head back west towards home, about to drop into Baker City OR...
  12. Another trip to ID today....to knock down a coupla appointments for Mrs. Hook. At least the weather is cooperating.
  13. Had a nice long overdue conversation w/ my brother down in TX yesterday afternoon...he's in the process of building another Ossa power'd bike...
