Sorry to hear it Bill. Been in that situation more than once. For the same reasons I have been through so many bikes. Hope you get back on two wheels as soon as possible.

I Ride: with dubious judgement, but niceness

Bill, that sux hard....just saw the ads on C/list and decided to check the site.
I feel you pain....was going through a similar situation a coupla years ago, listed up two of my bikes and found work within a week. Ended up selling the '04 CBR1000RR later, but still have 2 of the 3 bikes.
I CAN PROBABLY GET YOU HIRED WHERE I WORK!!
If you are interested...it's better than nothing, clean, inside, excellent benefits, and I am able to almost pay my bills (along with my 2 other jobs!)
But I can hang on to both my bikes, and my experiences have shown me that's better than bills that are paid.....anytime.
Times are tough, my friend....we talked about it last week riding the Lowman Loop.
Anyways, lemme know if I can give you (or anyone else here) a head's up about a job.

I Ride: Lets leave it at that.

I think there's a couple positions open at St. Als also that just require a High School diploma or GED. No medical experience at all. Pay isn't outstanding, but it's better thana kick in the butt.

Holler at me tomorrow and I'll check on those positions.

Thanks for all the well wishes and job leads.Am still collecting my $328 a week unemployment until Dec.Of course it doesn't cover the bills when I was at $1,000 a week.The $10 an hour jobs would be less than unemployment after taxes.

What are you looking to get out of the Falco. I may buy it and "hold it" for you till you're back.

serious bummer. I have heard of a couple jobs in Mtn Home but that seems like a long way to go for work. If you are interested PM me.

A sad day indeed. I hope things turn around for you and Debbie soon. There will always be another bike when the timing is right. Being a responsible adult is hard sometimes. Especially when your still a kid on the inside. LOL!

I'd steal the Falco from you if I could afford it. But what would "red" think? Let me know if you need help convincing anyone what a great bike you have. No clue on the ST, but I'm sure it serves it's purpose just as well.
