On my way home from work yesterday, I saw somebody on a blue 2006 pulling into a gas station on Rt. 21 in Brecksville...anyone from the forum?

 
Hey EL TORO, I almost did the same thing, I waved for you to turn around but you must not have seen me. That was my brother on the "KAW" we were going down to the "BARN" in Smithville for a cup of coffee and a piece of Pecan pie. I live in Brecksville, and have been riding,almost every chance I get, I just got the bike a couple of month's ago, and it's taking a little getting you'se to. Like I said in a previous post, I hope your wife mends quickly, we'll see you around this summer, You get some time to just ride for a couple of hours give me a shout.

 
I almost fell over when I saw the word Brecksville, I grew up in Brecksville, my Dad still lives there.
wow, so did I. well, Broadview Hts actually.

No way! Very small world. I haven't thought much about Brecksville since I left in '77 and when I rarely visit every 5-6 years or so to check on my father. We graduated in the same class.

 
Hey Topanga, Small world this internet thing, isn't it.

Hows it goin out there. Spent many a winter in LA when I was a kid. Lived in Newport Beach, and if memory serves me correctly [and I'm sure it doesn,t] I was in your neck of the woods for something the locals called the "Rennisance Fair" I think I had a good time, I can't really remember. Come on, it was 1969 or 1970 lots of "CID" back then. Like I said before can't really remember, any way nice talking to you.

Now I'm worried.....some of those memories are best left undisturbed! ha!

Topanga's changed a bit since you were last here. (Although I technically live in Malibu). It's budget Malibu for the most part now.
