George -- Is the Fulton Rig currently RFI? Might that be a way to snag the 'Bone out of his flower guild meeting?

George -- Is the Fulton Rig currently RFI? Might that be a way to snag the 'Bone out of his flower guild meeting? 'Bones 'Flower Guild' is a renegade splinter group from the 'Book Club'. Fulton Extraction Unit overdue for 100 point annual inspection, last inspection seen here, could be risky to separate 'Bone from those hard core flower children. Just sayin'. Regards, Cosmo

If it's possible to get around and see what we want to see I'm still in.
If to much snow for this trip then the next time I can make it is the official winter classic on the 15th.

Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | We had a good time. I found one 19.5" single wheel, which I'll fetch in a couple weeks.
Alec is researching and considering a 261.
On the way home we took rt42 and stopped to visit my knife maker Friend, interesting as usual.
Looking forward to the classic next month when more of y'all can make it, a little lonely this past Saturday.
