Title: Calling St. Louis area poggers!!!
Post by: bentrims on April 17, 2006, 08:41:29 PM
Is there a Pog member in the St. Loius area that can help our project?
As many know, POG member Bill Cappel has a brother stationed in Iraq. Bill has found his brothers dream bike that takes him back to the wonder years. :) The bike (1971 TS 125 Duster) sits paid for about 30 miles south of St. Looey. I want to help get the bike to Bill so he can begin the process with the bike and have it ready for June 2007 when his brothers tour of duty ends. I will be going to the MOVMX round of AHRMA and maybe even an event on MOVMX before AHRMA comes to town. When I get the bike it will make it to Colorado in September. Anyone willing and able to pick it up and hold it until we can shuffle the duster?

I live about twenty miles west of STL. Sounds like the bike may be down around Festus/Crystal City area. Not a deal for me as I go that way when I go to St. Joe to ride. I may go to the MOVMX race at Blue Springs so I could deliver it there for him. Dennis D

You will see the Blue fenders on my Penton you set me up with so you can tell it apart form your bike.

Dennis & Gary,
Thanks again for the helpfulness. As it turns out, Bill decided to wait and let this bike go. I thought it was a done deal.

Tom,

You would love the Harpers track just south of Kansas City and Moberly is always awesome. We have two new tracks this year, can't wait to try them out, missed one already due to TOO MUCH WORK!!!

Teddy,

I hope I can make one. Mark Skarpohl sid he loves the new Harpers even if he did leave a collar bone down there. MOVMX is a good reason alone to live down there!
