Patman stinks and I'm calling the lurkers out!

[singletracker500]

I think Okie told me once that I was member 136. Does that count as an old timer?? Of course, I have never left DRN...but I sure have seen alot of changes.

 

[bwalker]

How old is old?

I started lurking in sept of 99 and joined in January of 2000. Drn was way different back then. BTW Ivan, where is Tuner? I havent heard from him in eons.

 

[High Lord Gomer]

Since everyone else (other than those that have had the chance to experience your wierdness first-hand) is probably wondering...

This is the 12th anniversary of the day when Ivan was first allowed to come out from under the front porch (where he lived for the first 15 years of his life). Every so often he opens his eyes and realizes, "Wow! It is a big world out there!" Sometimes he lapses into his Steve Martin voice and says, "If this is out there, think how much more is out there!"
At times like these, we usually pat him on the head, make sure his medication hasn't run out, and then steal his bike!

So are you talking about people that remember when Shaltac moderated the Flame board? Or the first time the vintage forum came and went? Or what when we all got called old school tightie wearin' sumthin' or others?

This thread reminds me, what ever happened to yellowphart? Does anyone besides me even remember him?

[Patman]

So, you are saying I have a screw loose?

No, just that we now know where all those "extras" were supposed to go. :p

Geez, remember when those "X-Bobber" guys showed up? what a bunch of loons they were! what ever became of them :think

:confused:

So are you talking about people that remember when Shaltac moderated the Flame board?

I remember those days. I think there were 900 members when I joined. It was and still is a great place to hang out.:)

 

[Creeper9]

Yes, this was / and still is a fun place on the web. It was almost possible to know everyone on the site back then too. Now it's REALLY hard to keep up with all the new members.

[Senior KX Rider]

And hard to keep up with all the posts.:)

 

[High Lord Gomer]

YellowPhart aka Uwe Hale is a great guy. I rode with him at the '98 Texas Spodefest.
From the Flying-P Ranch...

 

[Patman]

He had a comment for everything.

Yeah and it may not even pertain to the subject!:confused:

 

[DirtFamily]

Anyone remember Dirtcrashr?

I used to be on here about 2-3 years ago and just recently returned....who knows what my name was back then :confused:

Maybe he was on RMD.....I never go there anymore....this is soo much more user-friendly....

DirtCrashr (Keith H) is still an RMD regular. I got to meet him at the Colorado Spodefest in 99. He's a really nice (and smart) guy, even if he is quieter in person.

 

[DirtFamily]

thanks Gomer...

I used to talk to Keith all the time....I wanted to go to the 99 Colorado Spodefest reeally bad...circumstances didn't allow .......:ugg:

hmmm.....Taylor Park in mid-august has been mentioned... :D

[High Lord Gomer]

We went out for a full week and did several tourist type things. Troy maxel and family cae out shortly behind us and stayed a few doors down in the hotel. It was a great time. I wish I had pictures of our makeshift garage we setup in the hotel parking lot.

I got to spend some time with Merf, too. Definitely the high point of going out there.

 

[Camstyn]

Hey Mike, whatever happened to Troy? I haven't heard from him in ages!

I switched ISPs and have no newsgroup access, so no more RMD for me. :(

 

[DirtFamily]

forgot about Merf et al....

I've looked at all the photos that were posted...I'm smiling ear to ear just thinking about the old group....and all the new folks here!
I might have to bug over to RMD just to say hi....

Dirtcrasher

The next time you guys talk to Keith, refer to him as "Professor House Wrecker".
Approx 6-8 years ago Keith & I, as well as about 20 others, rode street bikes together. One Sunday a large group of us went to visit a friend in Santa Cruz and, well, to make the story short it was a house warming & Keith hit the guys house with, I think, an XR 650L, but it was one of his first ever rides on a dirt bike.

 

[DirtFamily]

Cam...

You can search on www.google.com for "RMD" and get to the newsgroup......it just won't be in the same format....

Katie

 

[DirtFamily]

LOL Famer John!!

Ok ...now I HAVE to go say hi to Keith!!! :p

 

[Okiewan]

I'd probably refrain from any "been over at DRN" statements when visiting RMD :confused:

 

[DirtFamily]

But Okie....!!

:p I wouldn't do anything like THAT!!!:)

BTW......you've done wonderful things here in the last 2-3 I was away!!
They should worry!!:cool:

Katie

 

[singletracker500]

Just talked to KCGroundhog on the phone the other day. He's still around, but doesn't post much anywhere. He's coming out here in March for a weeks worth of riding.

 

[Okiewan]

Travis, right?
Tell him Howdy.

 

[BigBore]

I think I joined when there was around 300 members, but I'm not sure. Yeah, I remember the name Shaltac, and the tighty-wearing homo thing. :eek:
