As MIG # 211, I beat you both....
 
I joined up after getting my first computer which was around the same time I got my Marauder close to six years ago.
 
I've lurked, I've spoken, I've changed email addresses about six times, I've changed jobs, and changed houses too, but through it all, MIG was a constant for the most part. Even through a few mail server changes, and web site changes.
 
I recall throwing out the suggestion to one member who was having issues changing his sprocket to have someone hold the rear brake while he loosened the nut. I believe that made it to the "official procedure". I haven't even made that change to my own bike.
 
I sold my stock mirrors to one member. I actually said he could have them for the cost of shipping but he threw in some extra $$ for good measure.
 
I haven't made it to Asheville, but I'm young yet. I live in Central NH where I get to attend Laconia's Bike Week every year as I have since before I owned a bike. And since it was 90 degrees yesterday I got out and rode for a couple of hours too.
 
All in all, it is and has been a great ride. Though I too get tired of the general bitching and moaning, I am thoroughly enjoying this "new" list where I don't get twenty msgs a day that mean absolutely nothing to me. I do miss the Hubert rants on occasion. They were at least entertaining.
 
I'm back to lurking....

Cool thoughts. I've been here for just over 5. I've enjoyed it so far.
This too shall pass.

that, 229 was such a high number! But I was proud to be a MIG because it was
a great group. No crap. Just like minded Suzuki Criuser riders sharing the
ride.
