    Another week from hell, here. I'm sitting in the ER - 2d trip in 5 days for my father-in-law. Keep in your thoughts, please.

    waddyou mean "LOOK LIKE" most of them are! not too interested in the country, only special intrest groups.

    NICE "EYE". my biggest is 29 1/4", 7lb. 14 oz. my buddy has one 29", 9.7 lb. (9lb. 11 oz). this size is considered big for our area, although there are some over 10 to be caught.[/QUOTE]

    I have alot of Revolutionary War history around in my area, Valley Forge National Park, Washington Crossing Park, and within walking distance of my house we have the Moland house where G.W. stayed with his troops before crossing the Delaware...they have a re-enactment camp out every fall and it is really interesting to see and talk to the soldiers as they are very informative about their part in the battles. Some even play the part of a person from that era and tell you their history...really a great learning experience...everyJanuary, they do a G.W. crossing the Delaware River renactment up near New Hope...It is amazing to watch...like Jim said, they had the odds stacked against them with little or no food, poorly dressed for the cold and the cap and ball muzzyloaders for armament...but thanks to the men and women that gave us this great country we live in today...:woot:Thanks to them all:thumbsup:

    I'm 65 and taKing delivery on a 2012 4WD on Saturday, but after browsing the forum I think I'm too old to drive it! On good days I am planning to just go out in the garage and sit in it and dream of what I could do if I were only younger!

    Welcome to our little slice of TW. Lots of good guys and dolls here and most of us are more active than the younguns. ;)

    Carl:
    The seller tossed in two fenders but no mounting hardware. I oedered the hardware yesterday. Cost was $4. ;)

    Oriville and Wilber did not make bikes for old farts with minor medical problems. This is a really comfortable bike. I test drove 6 other comfort bikes and this one blew them away.
