    Default a long time member - Gene " Chupaca " 4/6/20

    I won't get into all the details, but I spoke with Him last nite ...... Both He and Linda (?) are Virus free as is His daughter & Her husband ...... a few months ago Gene developed some medical issues, not life threatening but as we get older things start to wear out. He has finally gotten past the worst effects, but at our age things take time ..... while this was going on, they sold their House - had to find new digs, there was issues with that .... moving company's ( the ones that are still functioning ) are having Virus issues also ...... then there was a last minute issue with the folks they bought the new house from .... annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd as this wasn't enough His 08 (?) GS has developed and knock / sound in the lower end .... He has a stethoscope and has decided it isn't in the valve train ........... His garage has gotten a lot smaller so that's an issue, plus His longtime Dealer doesn't want / can't deal with any difficult V-twin issues..... so this memo to all is what is His present state of affairs are ........ Mike

    Mike,

    Glad to hear he is on the mend.

    There is actually someone else I was thinking about, but I wasn't sure if I would be allowed to ask. Have you heard anything about a mutual acquaintance from NY?
