A few updates....

Due to Paypal limitations on raffles, we can no longer use the Paypal option
on the site. They already wrote to me when using my test account.

I'll change to mail in only.

I guess they informed Lucky also.... sorry about that.....

It's fine to send the checks to Lucky direct, but I will need his address.

Lucky, you can PM me with your address if this is OK.

Everything else stays the same....

I understand your feelings,,, but understand ours too... You have saved me money and time and maybe even saved my life with the info contained here-in. I like to think of people, who have helped me for no reason at all, as being my friend. There arent many out there. But, you are one. This is an opportunity for me to give back. Dont feel bad about that,, I feel its a privilege, and an honor, to give back to someone who has helped us all, and me personally, so much. Dont feel belittled,, feel as though you are being honored.  By a group of guys who are your friends. As has been said before,, I hope its enough to carry you through.. So, dont thank me, this is my little way of saying thank you.

No body seems to be interested in a custom fork crown , so I'll substitute, a fork brace , Bids should be 10.00 . Here's a chance to get one , for a song, this particular one is no longer available . I have the same one on my bike. I'll try to post a pic.
Same deal, send it to Lucky, or his pay pal, marked "Fork brace"
Also , send me a PM , with the transaction number. If you don't have Pay Pal , just  send Lucky a PM for his street address and send him a money order, then send me a PM, that you sent him the 10.00 dollars.

I totally dig this thread.  Since I've bee laid off myself I can see how this new economy gets real very quickly. 

Would this all be considered a form of socialism?  I hope fox news doesn't get wind.

No, since it is not a government program of taking over business :-)  More of a community taking care of fellow members..

Fox News has enough wind of their own...

I stopped by the shop that did my saddle bags to donate a little more blood today to pay for the job.  :o  Ended up getting one of the guys numbers that was interexted in my bike.  I called him and told him about Lucky's bike and he actually lives close to ACE where he works and has seen it there.  He says hes gonna call him and take a look at teh bike.

Cross your fingers and say your prayers.  Maybe he will buy it...and we will have another SoROV member.  He's got a fully dressed and customized harley but He's looking for and older bike that's fun to ride and tinker with.  I Think He'll have fun...don't y'all?

Hi guys,,,, just got in from Yes Bay.. In Alaska you can still pick the fruit from the trees and not have to pay...

We went to Yes Bay with a buddy ( yeah and exharleyflatracker) we set nets and pickedup 60 Sockeye Salmon for the three of us...the state allow 20 each in posession.  Now I have my partial winter supply of Salmon... Silvers are yet to come.. the sockeye is the best and reddest of the salmon and I think the best eating..

Just like picking fruit... the cleaning is messy and we recycle for crab/shrimp bait.


We are clicking along... thanks for the support.     David.... if that guy buys the Lucky V... He better pay.... in the end it will be Lucky's decision... I am ok with that..

I know that the current effort has helped and is really more meaning full then the dough..it's the "family".

So anyway we will proceed... the drawing is going to happen on August 21 at NOON "Alaska Daylight time.   The computer will snag a winner..

I will give you all an update sometime this week..

Rick.... I exempted my self from the stator thing... But would anyone object if I made a bid on the Fork Brace...    I will watch for a couple of days.. and if no one objects... you have to outbid me to get it..

Thanks for the donation.. as I understand it the bids will close on August 21 too???

I understood from Rick's post about 5 up in this thread that the fork brace was $10 raffle rather than an auction.  I have already forwarded mine to Lucky via paypal, and dutifully emailed my trans ID to Rick.
Be in there by all means.

Rick G

Its actually a raffle , maybe I should have made it an  auction. But any one really wanting it, could buy more chances and increase the chance of winning it.
