Don - yep it is small indeed. I had a similar instance today. I am working up in Cheboygan this week, and had a package I had to ship out (some bike parts I sold), so there I am at a UPS shipping place getting the box weighed in. A guy walks in carrying a box for a MX helmet, evidently to ship it out as well. I take care of business, and the guys notices the box I am using has Dennis Kirk stickers on it (gotta recycle all those boxes!), so he comments about it and we start up a conversation. He rides a 200 EXC, has been thinking about doing some enduros (I suggested the Jackpine), we discuss some set up topics for the 200 (my sons bike is a 200 MXC)...then he comments "yeah, I rode last weekend down by Weber Lake - saw some guys there at the trail head unloading some KTMs... " hmm, I rode the Wolverine C loop Sunday evening with a buddy (CR250@winters) - green Ford Excursion with a hitch hauler, about 4:00 PM..." "was your buddy in a green Chevy truck?"
Turns out he and his buddy and their kids were sitting there taking a break as Mike and I pulled in and unloaded! We never did get a chance to talk to them before they left though.
Well, the lady behind the counter is standing there waiting (for me to pay...I had not done so yet!) listening to the conversation and says - "boy small world - what are the odds you would be here from out of town, and the two of you would walk in here at the same time, ride the same brand of bike, and rode the same trail on Sunday?" I told her us nasty dirt bikers are everywhere lurking in the shadows!
I pointed him over here to DRN MTR - hopefully he will show up sometime soon.
