Hey Zeke, KC!

Work turned into bottomless spiral of suck so after 23 years I gave my boss notice and moved on. Landed a better gig in a different industry but am still connected if it doesn't pan out.

Had some bizarre health issues, thankfully now under control.

Bought an automatic Kia. Sure, it's a Stinger GT, but it's still a Kia.

How are you guys doing?

Thanks gents! Supes, you still owe me a picture of the bike. I hope you're enjoying it.

Oh, I finally had the SC painted. Mostly just clear coat and various touch-ups, but it looks 1000% better. Unfortunately now I'm afraid to drive it and get a ding in the paint - I seem to be attracting rock chips lately.

Welcome back!
Have you thought of a clear bra? It makes driving a lot more enjoyable I have found.

BSJ, thanks tons for checking in. It's great to hear that you're still kicking and doing well (other than driving a Kia, I'm sorry!)

These days, we notice when folks drop off, and it's especially scary because of the past couple of years. We've had several folks pass away including a few due to Covid.

Hearing that someone has gotten too busy or decided to step away is not bad. Hearing (or not) that a regular has passed away sucks.
