OT: iron butt and message boards

I met some other motorcycle riders on the Yahoo HDI board. After a few years of arguing over COG and cash flows we agreed to meet up. One guy was doing an ironbutt time trial from Florida to California. He would end up in San Diego. The people in CA agreed to meet him in San Diego. I rode my bike 130 miles south and met up with him. He showed up. No one else did and they lived even closer than me. One guy felt so bad he didn't show his face on the board for three months then made up some bull story about some secret government mission ;-) Anyway we rode around, visited my grandmothers grave, talked about bikes and stocks then he hopped back on his bike to go back to Florida. I rode home in freezing cold weather, could barely move my hands. My teeth were chattering some badly that the taillights were blurry. I rode my bike into my backyard, took off my clothes right there and hopped into the jacuzzi for 45 minutes until I thawed out. I had a little frost bite on my you know whats even. It was hot when I left.
