Hi Andy,

If only we all had brothers that wanted Loops. When asked by a friend
when he was going to get a Loop, my brother replied he just wasn't old
enough yet and there would be plenty of time to go slow later! His
current ride is a Ducati 907ie so I guess a Loop would seem a tad tame.
He also forgets he's three years older than me! :-) He doesn't
understand my obsession with Loops - it's one of those things that if I
have to explain, he'll never understand. Hope you and your bro' get a
chance to ride together often! Cheers,

Charlie

so here i am, a spineframe to my right, almost completely sorted out, an
eldo on my left, repaired and ready to go back together, and on the
bench,
most of a nice, low mileage ambo ['70] waiting patiently. my [slightly]
younger brother walks in- "soooo, what's the scoop on that ambo? gonna
ebay
her when she's done?" yep, afraid so..... "well, i would like to buy her
now, and you finish her up." WOW! WOOOHOOO!!! OH, YEAH!! GREAT! AMAZING!
OH,
YEAH! OUTSTANDING! RAAAHHHHHZZZZZZ!!!
my bro is a great guy, who devoted 100% of his time to marriage and
family [ me, i'm just too selfish for that stuff maybe 80%!] he's
easy-going, knoledgable, and very likeable [unlike me], and apparantly,
my
"guzzi-itis" has finally rubbed off! so Caroline has a damn good
mechanic, a
very careful new owner, and the rally trail will be more crowded, as it
were!
wow, i'm still in shock! see ya !!!
