Yep that's all true, but you didn't hit on last part of my post. Just let it slide?

Your not talking about a gun to your head and have to decide whether to pull the trigger or not. There are alternatives to the two choices you mentioned.
It sounds like you've been all over the world but I'll bet there are lots of cool places in the US you haven't been. Think of all the women you haven't given any money to yet.

That's true. What money? That's why I don't have a bike.

A scan of a sorry photo of my 1st bike. A short time after this was made, my wife & I was headed down a trail away from beach, an old man came in from right on bycycle. Bamm. Ladys ride side saddle there so she didn't hit ground. In a few minutes we had a crowd with big knives, "parangs" all around us.
someone came by in a jeep from the Indonesian oil compamy and helped us out. Anyway I agreed to pay any Dr. bills. He showed up at house w/a bill that took 2 people to carry. So after feeding some of the chiefs in my neighborhood, I made him an offer that he took.

One of my neighbors who died recently was in the oil biz as well. He had some awesome stories, with occasional embellishment, about mixing with the locals in various scary places. Pretty adventureous crowd he ran with. I'd like to hear any stories you've got bb. Maybe start a thread and spin an occasional tale?

I'll second that, Griff

busterb · 05-22-2005, 07:15 PM

Well someone tell me what to name the thread. And realize that I'm not great at spelling or the written word. And hope I don't stopping drinking

The BS might not flow as well then.
Maybe about the kick off of the Biafra civil war or when the Shaw of Iran was crowned back in 76. Which BTW I have a few great tales of. Or perhaps about the jungles of Peru. S.E. Asia was kinda slow. Open to suggestions.

Look familiar? Unless yours was a Binta?

busterb · 05-22-2005, 08:27 PM

Humm, you really think I can remember that far back?

Depends if it was a Bike or a form of transport. I sent it to show that not much has changed at least in the basic requirements in the past 30 years.
