MAILBOX MOTORCYCLE BLING!

[Montana Jim]

Nick Papageorgio is one cool cat! 8)

Back on April 24th Nick was on his way to the office when he spotted this gold object (Harley Davidson emblem) on the highway. On the way home it was still there and he played "Frogger" across 4 lanes of traffic going 55 mph to pick it up! No doubt thinking he struck "bling"!

Nick got home and posted it on TreasureNet offering it to the first Harley rider/owner that wanted to claim it... luckily it was me! I say "luckily" because good 'ole Gypsy tried to win it for River Rat who is a Biker Babe with an awesome trike!

I was one second faster... and apparently not very chivalrous.

So Nick packaged the thing up and I received it today, along with a wonderful letter and the correct kind of sticky tape to reapply it to my bike.

In the words of TreasureNet member Yarrum: "He's a bloody champ that Nick. Credit to this site and himself." - I agree!

The little contest was fun, generated some great chat, a few more great motorcycle pics and shows that Nick is one of the reasons I keep comming back to TreasureNet! I appreciate your efforts and kind words...

Thanks Nick!

Here she is...

Jim,
Looks great on your bike! I know a 75 yr old lady in a 1-piece bikini that would LOVE to take a ride on that baby. Put on some cologne.

Nick,
You're a great guy to give Jim the only gold he's found all year.

Nice! We should all have a "mailbox" that looks like that, I love it! Have you changed our address yet?

Hey Nick,

Send us a picture of what Jim forced on you in trade. That will complete the story in my mind.

You guys and gals all rock.

 

[Montana Jim]

Send us a picture of what Jim forced on you in trade.

I wanted to trade... Nick refused. I can't help he didn't want that gold ring I found...
