Hello

Hi. Ed and Stephanie here from Cincinnati. We just traded up to a new FR3 from a Coachmen Prism and looking forward to many trips. I was a motorcycle tour guide and traveled a lot of the world. Now I have cancer and had to retire and we decided to spend more time together traveling. So my wife retired and we purchased a MH. We have been to a couple of state parks in frozen Ohio and just returned from a week long trip to Pensacola. I am retired from the Army and local police department so we are trying to take advantage of the military campgrounds. I have two weeks to travel between chemo. We are trying to get chemo out west somewhere for 6 months to allow us to travel there. Upcoming planned trips are back to Florida, Brown County, IN, and Nova Scotia this summer. More plans to come.

Welcome from Ontario. Hopefully the clean air and living and travelling with your wife will give you the inspiration in between your treatments. Soldier on.

Welcome, Ed from a former motorcycle engineer with Norton-Villiers. I worked on the Commando program, then the AJS Stormer, as a test engineer. Got paid for riding the Commando prototypes all over the UK 40 hours a week!

Gave that up to come to the US in 1968 to a job with Boeing. Retired in 1998. We were RVer's for about 10 years before rising costs drove us away. We sold our Class A just before the end of last year.

F and E. I have a good friend that races used to race a Commando in AHRMA and now restores British bikes as a retirement hobby. You may have met him, Bill Atkins.
