This is one of the cases I wish was not true. These people are great down to earth and not the squids I would like to see thinning. I just picked up this guys/gals TE250 and this 510 is a great bike and great price. I would have picked up both and resold the 510 if I had the squish. You can not go wrong with a bike this well maintained and little miles. He needs to sell, so the bike is WAY under market value IMHO. Good Christian honest people that have to get rid of toys and stuff do to the economy. I rolled the 250 away yesterday and his wife had gator tears in her eyes because she loved her bike and riding. I called George before I left and asked what to look for, he said at that price get them both, nothing wrong or to look for on those bikes, I wish I could have helped these people out like that. If anyone would like to have it shipped and he/seller will not, I will help with that. I looked at this bike and it is a great deal. I can probably get a shipping box from George if needed. http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/mcy/2010880254.html
the world really does require good ol Uncle Sam to fire up. The Europeans can't do it Australia is going gang busters but with 20 million folks (same size as the lower 48) we are a tiddler in the global scheme of things. Japan is a basket case. China and India are growing strong-they are so huge that they have enough internal drivers that they can really be isolationists and still grow, albeit from a low base.I hope Bernake and Obama et al can re-engineer the stimulus package.
