Saw a few folks post on the member location map, and also recent stuff on the Around The World Relay threads. But haven't seen updates on the maps, or posts from him.

Lost login was Jul'14. Anyone know??

They seem to have moved on to other bikes and their tbirds apparently are no longer their main bike. I think thatch has a moto morini or some such thing and probably spends most of his forum time at a forum for those. Birdy i think is into sport touring now like the trophy or one of those. They post here still but rarely. Dizze, i dunno. He's been trying to make a turbo for a couple years now and his bike has probably therefore been inoperable during this time so he likely has little interest in posting till it's done.

I wonder if Birdy will share the "key" to keeping those maps up to date, then??? It'd be great to see him here, more, but would like to keep his work going, too.

Didn't he start doing some stuff on the LT seat to fit our birds, too? Or is that another Birdy? And yea, Thatch has been MIA as well as AlainD. With some of the recent mods folks are posting about (like EdBob's caf??) I would have thought they'd be all over it!

Certainly did Matt. I live in Veryan on the Roseland peninsular a mile from the beach. I own the local shop and post office with staff to let me ride and fish to my hearts content , mostly. Pub 50 yards away and some prety stunning scenary. Couple of kayaks for fishing and getting away from the tourists in summer.

Bike in summer is a neccessity as the roads are prety narrow round here lol.

my local beach

Oh jeez where is the picture link on this forum , oh well just look it up , Pendower beach.



Lifes prety laid back mostly when not worrying about the 20% profit lol.

Nice one. Glad it all went well. Bet your pleased you don't have to work in that shithole of a place anymore. Look stunning where you are.

The last time I traded emails with Birdy, he said he has a new position at work that keeps him very busy and he just doesn't get online during the day anymore and has been staying off the computer at night. He also has a Tiger and Trophy, but it sounds like the Trophy was more for two-up riding with his wife. I believe he still prefers the Thunderbird and Tiger to the Trophy.
