The Zippo factory is in the Bradford Area. You probably rode through my neck of the woods. I live near lake Erie, about 35 miles SW of Erie.
I passed my MSF/PAMSP class on Sunday with flying colors (Stupid figure 8!!! :frusty: Got 3 points for going outside the lines). Now, I just need to save up the cash for a bike. My wife is insisting that I buy a new one rather than used. Guess I won't argue with that thought pattern even if it will take me a bit longer to get one. :laughing:
Hopefully, I'll be looking for some riding partners next year. |

There is an East Penn Biker event in Bridgeport NJ on the 27th..Bikes, Cars and Wrestlin...
I think I will be doing the Run to the NJ and POW/MIA Recognition day... |

My daily ride is an 82 Yamaha Maxim XJ750.
I'm currently restoring an 83 Midnight Maxim. I also have a 73 Honda CB750F(four) mint original cond. that I only occassionally ride. My uncle bought it new and I purchased it fom him about 10 years ago.
I have a garage full of bikes. Some like new but most are R.I.P!! (Resting In Pieces) :laughing: Someday I'll resurrect them. I'm an impulsive buyer of used bikes that don't run. Some only need minor work. But people either don't have the know how, or don't want to pay someone to fix it so they dump it cheap. The wife gets mad at me cuz I buy 'em and they just sit in the garage/yard. I've got so many that she can't recognize when I buy another, and I don't tell her. :wink: :laughing: |

| Behave out there in Tionesta. My medic station covers a big part of it! I work out of the Emergycare-Titusville division. We cover Titusville, Hydetown, Pleasantville, Cherrytree with ambulance and, run a medic unit to meet up with the ambulances from Townville, Spartansburg, Centerville, Grandvalley, Tidioute and Tionesta when they're headed our way or, when we're the closest paramedic unit. |

Will do!! :wink: I had a friend in Tidioute who was in a very serious ATV collision a few years back. The medics took him to a field where the STAT-Medivac helicopter flew him to Pittsburgh in less than 20 minutes. You probably see that alot up there. |

If any of you are around on Saturday the 10th, I will be showing my 48 Simplex at Smaltz HD in Eagle PA (Rt100 North of the PA turnpike). Stop by and say Hi! I better get a friggin trophy...I just dropped 11 grand there... :roll: I will either be standing next to the bike answering questions, or walking around with a hulking big digital camera setup..
