Ughhh, the dreaded UTI....I couldn't continue the trip for about a week if i had it. UTI's knock me down n out!! Hope you recover quick, and I'll see you this weekend probably. It's incredibly HOT here right now, like an oven, so maybe AB will rub you down with BBQ sauce!!

It's incredibly HOT here right now, like an oven, so maybe AB will rub you down with BBQ sauce!! Here too. Mid 90's with incredible humidity. As for the BBQ, I am intimidated to do any comparative grilling with an Aussie. If I were from Texas, I might give it a whirl. Fubb is more than welcome to BBQ with me and my Stubbs Moppin' Sauce. Shrimp on the barbie anyone?

No worries, mate....I know you're headed in this direction, only a few hours away, so I'll be meeting you tonight sometime. Actually, a little Key West-style bar is right next door where you'll stay, so maybe we can catch up on your version of "Pee Wee's Big Adventure". Now, it's just too damn bad we don't have some Devs to join you, me and Tridawg...

Well, met my Aussie mate a little while ago, and what a cool dude!! A local bar/rest where I go is almost next door to his hotel, and we pushed down for drinks and fries. Fubb even helped push my quad ass up a big hill while still pushing himself...that musta looked damn funny to an AB spectator. Think we'll hit the beach tonight!! Sure would be nice to have a few Devs, huh Fubb??? lol

Sounds like a good time, Tony and fubb! Actually, that (wheeler pushing wheeler) can't look as funny as a training technique my IWS team uses...all of the Strikers will grab onto one person's chair like a train and that person pulls half the team around the facility's campus.
I, too, met a person from the board very recently.

On the way to middle school, I used to tow my to friends on their bikes. Each one would grab a handlebar on the side...

I have no idea what a IWS team is, but I'm guessing it's like 'pullin a train', only no drunk girl. lol In rehab, I had a great c4 quad friend, and I used to wrap my arm through his armrest to hold on, and he'd hit da gas, off we'd fly. I'm talking FAST! I had to try and keep my knob-handrims from hitting his wheels - not easy while holding on with elbow!! Needless to say, many accidents!! I could write a book on the accidents I've had being a pushing quad...you become a master at reading ground levels and danger spots, but only after many crashes!
Not sure Fubb will ever leave here!! The girls love that 'exotic' Aussie accent. haha
