Hey Mark, I don't think I'm the guy your speaking of, but I live in Pearl River La. about 40 miles north and east of New Orleans. I don't post much here but have been reading this site for years. I think I know who you are talking about in New Orleans but I can't remember his name either. Anyway, I'm single again now and and you all are welcome to stay here as long as you want. You won't bother anyone. I don't have much to offer but it's here if you want it. You can wash clothes and whatever while your here. The Honey Island Swamp Tours are only about 10 miles away. We could KLR around New Orleans if you want and eat too. Let me know. I am at work now and will be here till 3:00 AM, but that is the best time to call me as I am awake.

And yes, it's OK to call me at work. If I'm not in my office and out on the shop floor I can't hear my phone but leave a message and I will call you back. John T.985-373-3513johntripwire@...

Mark, hi..... I am the guy in New Orleans, but I can't remember my name either.......... wait, wait, I think it might be Eddie. Anyway, if you would like some info on New Orleans, I would be happy to provide it. Later today I'll type out a list of the best things to do in New Orleans (the sites and restaurants) and will PM you. Eddie

All the best,

John

WHERE OH WHERE to put that can?

I got a LARGE fender bag from fred a while back and put in my spare fr. tube, and was not sure what else I would want to leave up there, and on my trip from Mich to NC (by way of MAINE) I picked up a Large full size can of spray and was about to take oof the side box to putr it with my tools. and BAM it hit me use the FENDER BAG.

PLENTY OF ROOM in the top pouch.

TIP 2 The zippers may want to shift a bit and Mostly someone (A LOW LIFE THIEF) may see those zippers as easy access.

So I used a zipstrip and ran it threw all 3 zipper pulls. NOT tight just enough for show and to slow down it opening on its own, It LOOKS like it's realy secure from others quickly opening it , but it does open enought to use the can.

EASY QUICK ACCESS.

If you want to take a ride through N.O.'s historic district we can. I always enjoy it. There's more to N.O. than the French Quarter. I was born there and worked there many years. I'm off work now till Tuesday. Offer still stands if you can make it. John
