Great news Tom , you can't take the KC out of the guy. I'm happy that you and Christine can return to the home state.

Just in case people are wondering why I will be missing the Cirque, I am heading further East, to the New Haven CT area, on short notice. Sell house, buy house, move start a new job July 2. Open to offers on some less than draft horse size bikes also.

KCTOMMY is going home, with orders to report to HHC, 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley Kansas. For a while it looked like I would have to miss Cirque X but now my report date is pushed back to 1 July, so I'll be able to squeeze in le Cirque between HHG shipping, pre-positioning Christine's car west of the Mississippi and generally taking care of all those billion details associated with a big move.

If any of you are passing through Manhattan (Kansas, that is) please do give me a ring or drop me an email. The door will always be open.

Mikey, Gabriel, Steven M., Steve W., Dave, Ray, Rita, Kevin, Joe B-Z and many others I know I missed, I will miss all of you. And Vaya con Dios to the Potomac crew: Dan, Wayne, Harvey, Paul, Ken, Ben, Peter, Larry and Jill. I didn't get down to ride with you nearly enough.
