Relocation
« on: September 12, 2015, 11:32:43 PM »
An announcement to the forum: I have joined a new rider's group. I have found a new job in Nashville, and my new workplace is dominated by riders of all sorts, from a Ducati to a Honda NC700 to BMW and various Harley's and clones. Introducing myself as owning a Guzzi, I get equal responses. Half blink unknowingly, and half say "Oh, really?". I look forward to being an emissary for the brand, and to getting out on the terrific middle Tennessee roads.
Anyone in the area looking for a ride, I'm looking for tour guides. Opry passes might be involved...

Congratulations on the new job.  I own a little land near Lynchburg but haven't been there in over 30 years.  Once I retire I'll go down there an build a small house and hide out.  Beautiful roads down there.

Sounds like a very cool workplace.  Back when I worked in an office, it was just the occasional HD rider I ran into.


Farmer Dan, isn't there a little distillery in Lynchburg?

Think I still own a square inch too.  Does that make me a Tennessee squire?

Back in the early seventies I had a tomcat named Grey Ghost - no relation, probably...
That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.
