Hello Homies,

I am looking to acquire another project (gasp). A basket case 75 Moto Guzzi 850 T3 in Bethesda, MD. I can handle getting the $$ to the guy, but I was wondering if one of my friends out that way could pick up and maybe store until I can get out there in about 2-3 weeks?

So many of you in that area are friends of mine, it is easier to ask you here (as I forget who lives where).

Thanks in advance!

Your humble master,

Dr. Evil

I'm sure Rod "the mad X-biker" would help ... Bethesda is right across the "crik" but Spraggi is closer.

It's on! Who can get there first? Spraggi, maybe I can have you pay him for me tomorrow. I don't want some one else swooping in.

OK, here is the scoop: He is near Bethesda, I can get a better location when I get someone available on Thurs night for pay and pickup. I will forward that person the $$ for the bike, they will pay for and pick up the bike, and then I will come out and get it when I get back to town after the PNW event. (sounds almost like a Nigerian scam (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) ).

So, who is available on Thurs night????

I'm available to help load the bike Thursday, but I do not own a pickup truck to move it, and I have no indoor storage for it.

I am not worried about indoor storage, just safe storage. If you are close enough and available, I can kick down $$ for a Home Depot truck rental or something similar.

Cinco de Mayo? OK if it's way after rush hour, like 9pm. Is it dismantled? Will it fit in a Vanagon? PM root to see if he can help, he also has a pick'em up truck and storage space at his company although Kyle might put the engine in his ride.

Luck. The guy was just about to list it for sale on Craigslist and his mechanic saw me asking about one on a moto Guzzi forum and connected us (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) He even told me of the low ball price that it was offered to him for so I knew what to offer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I can forward the phone # to you if you wish to try and organize this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I will, of course, owe you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I was off for a couple of days. Looks like you got it worked out. I'm still available if needed.
