Hi Choppa!! Nice photo, glad to be able to put a face on a kindred Limey biker and auto mechanic. Gettin' edgy with the cold and snow as I'm sure you guys are.
Best, Gene

Coilygirl, Thanks. The first 26 miles was a piece of cake, its that last .2 that gets ya!
Gunsil, Edgy doesn't even begin to describe me. Pretty bad when 28 degrees feels like a heat wave LOL!
Did get a chance to detect for a few hours when I visited my daughter and grandkids in Greenville SC last week. Dug a 41 Merc and a handful of wheaties

Howdy Choppadude,

You are a great looking couple, congratulations on your run. My hat's off to both of you for being able to do it, and for caring enough about yourselves to stay fit.

When I was able to run, as a sprinter, I could beat them all, was even dubbed "Speedy Gonzalez" in school. I could also jump any barbed wire fence on the run, but I never could run the long distance races, I only won the 600 yard dash once.
