Received a text message from Da'mit today:
"Hey TexasYeti, where r u? Got the new motor in, am ready to roll. The guys here at Big Twin r great, fun group, but I belong on the road not in a shop.
Got other suitors eyeing my wheels so get your gear up here and let's ride... before another Yeti takes me for a spin. Da'mit"
Had to tell her to cool her heels. I'll be there bright and early Friday morning to pick her up. Then we'll GO DA'MIT. The ride will continue, .. not to Texas... just yet. But to Salem Oregon for the BMW Rally starting next week. That will make Da'mit happy. More roads to explore, things to see... admirers for her and adventure for me await around each turn in the road.
Nite Da'mit, Nite all

Yes, we will need to remind Darling Damit that she has had heart surgery, and like any cardiac patient, she will need to go through her rehab paces before she's up for her usual work load. But you know those URALS: they don't have a middle ground (as you and Dom found out...it's either smooth sailing, or waiting for the tow, with not much in between).
ReplyDeletewishing you both a happy reunion!
Don't call the hearse just yet. Da'mit still has a lot of life left in her.
DeleteBetter hurry before Boris tries to mount her. He's been giving her the eye at Big Twin. Enjoy your voyage!
ReplyDeleteGood thing I had her fixed...
DeleteSix days to get from Boise to Salem. Even at Ural speed, that seems generous ;-)
ReplyDeleteAs you know, any road that isn't the shortest or quickest, is a Ural road.
DeleteTake care to break in that new engine nicely Sir.
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best of luck from this point onwards....say hello to RichardM for us when you get to the Beemer rally.

Am babying Da'mit for the next ....... miles. Not too many miles in a day, not too fast and not too steep....
ReplyDeleteThe guys at Big Twin really did me right. Am very pleased with how they handled Da'mit and the new engine install.
