Slammed DSG on Soutbound 680

Whoa!
On my may to work who was that DSG, which looked like a 2/4 drop, lower billet grille, with disabled tags?

Your truck looked awesome!

At first I though it was BillP, then I saw the tails and they were NOT L tails.

Anyone from here??? I was that little 4-banger blue Tercel, trying to keep up with you

don't ya hate that? it always seems to be when you aren't driving the truck that you see another HD on the road. they probably think your just some weirdo following them or something

i usually beep at the other person if we both have HD's, and they usually wave or beep back. sometimes i forget though and beep in the old truck, and they are probably thinking wtf?

The DSG passed me at the top of Sunol and exited at Montague. He punched it once and he was gone! Took me like forever to catch up!

Hey Guys, that was me commuting in my pride and joy. I really wanted to join up for the BAHDFOG gathering at the Hopyard but was busy working on my motorcyle so I can ride again. FYI, the drop is a 3/2 from Bell Tech and the disable plate is because I'm a paraplegic. Didn't you notice the wheelchair casters poking up from the passenger seat?

BTW, when is the next BAHDFOG gathering??

Hi Kirkoman!

Didn't notice the wheel casters. My mind was trying to identify the truck... is it 4WL HOGG?, is it BillP?, is it 2002Harley(Gary)? then when you passed me, I knew it wasn't anyone of them. I was putt.. putt.. puting my way up the grade when I saw you.

Is that your regular work schedule? If it is, I have a feeling that were gonna see each other's truck a lot.

You have a nice looking ride, it makes me really want to get drop shackles on my truck now.

If you see a Black 02, with BLWN HOG tags, that's me!
Oh yeah, if you see a blue Toyota Tercel that sounds like a lawn mower, that's me too

We're planning the next BAHDFOG after the holidays. We're open for suggestions and this time, we will be picking a place with a good back drop to get some group shots.

See ya around!

Welcome Kirkoman!! Did you send me an email to get on the distribution list?

If not, send me an email at BAHDFOG@hotmail.com and I will put you on the list for future events. Won't be doing anything til after the holidays now. We are talking about going to the Grand National Roadster Show. It is either in Feb or Apr depending on who you ask.

Hey BillP, Yep I'm on your distribution list.

I know there is a lot of confusion about the Grand National Roadster Show and the Oakland Roadster Show. I believe the official Grand National Roadster Show is held at the San Mateo Fairgrounds in Feb. This is the Show that awards the America's Most Beautiful Roadster troghy and was held in Oakland for ever up until 6 or 7 years ago when the promoters had a falling out with the Oakland Collisium.

Some other promotor is trying to capitalize on the Oakland Roadster Show name with an event held at the Collisium in April. I went last year and was disappointed.

2002Harley,

They were not on during the meet. I already have the courtesy notice from the Pleasanton DMV to pick them up there and swap my old plates. I will have them on very soon!
