    Well, the hell week of SXSW is here!! I won't be able to make it tonite until late due to work, but the honorable Zamboni Steve will be taking over hosting duties this evening. Hope everybody can make it out, and if anyone wants to hang late, me and hellonwheels will probably be getting off work around 11:30. I know it will be hard, but please try to have a great time without me...:D Thanks again to everyone who has made this thing happenin', see y'all next time--Mark

    I am planning on being there, my kids are at their mama's, and the wife is in ohio. Please keep an eye on me, it has been a long time since I have been anywhere without adult supervision.

    I will be there...with my 2 day old hangover.

    Clutch rocked,b.t.w....

    I may even wash the Wagon first. (which, if my current curse proves true, guarantees it's untimely explosion.)

    Dont wash the wagon, we dont need any untimely explosions, besides if you do it WILL rain, and I am going to be 2 wheeling it tonite. That being said, it wouldn't be the first time I got rained on.

    I put it on the calendar for every other Monday. So now, if your not sure if it's the right Monday, you can check.

    See ya'll there. Should be an extra good one this time. I'm glad Zamboni Steve will finally be "in charge".

    Edit: Just got the word the Mrs. buzzard will be joining the party tonight. We may get there a bit early so she can dock her boat.

    Aw hell... the skies are telling me it'll be fine... but I'm not sure how much more "patina" I want on the unpainted steel. I'll play it by ear I guess and hope that we won't have rain.

    I understand, they do good work, yet speed is not their strong suit.

    they're the only game in town for rear end stuff...and unfortunately, are well aware of it.

    don't get me wrong-they're an excellent bushel of bastards...but yeah, thier "giddyup" seems to be stuck in second.

    I made it out for the first time last night and it a great time. It was good to put faces, names and rides together. A few more times and I will even be able to have total recall on who is who. It was a great turnout, too bad it started to rain because it pretty much cleared out after that. I have to admit it was more than a little spooky riding home on 2 wheels. I really felt for the people who had to make their way home on cheaters. I will see everyone on the 26th.

    The only person I remember seeing with a camera was a tourist so I doubt there will be any pictures. I think it policy of what happens at the duck huddle stays at the duck huddle.

    Sounds like I missed a great night. Thanks to everyone for coming out, hope to meet you new guys next time. There were a couple of die hards still there (thanks guys) by the time I made it from work, so I guess I didn't totally miss out. Anyway, see y'all next time. Mark

    Yeah, like Mark said, thanks everyone!! It's encouraging to see new people everytime we do this!! Thanks everyone for coming out, and for spreading the word. Next time we'll start the Round up week off right on Monday night. See you all then.
    BTW, Thanks Buzzard!!
