It's been a pleasure. A thank you to the great folks on this forum.

  • First, I just wanted to say, it has been a pleasure being on this forum. I've been a member of quite a few online forums in the past, and this, by far, has been the best. To see how many people go out of their way to help others is astounding. @rabtech should be incredibly proud of what he has built here. I have met and talked to some amazing people through here.


    I joined this forum because I planned on buying a Slingshot and was looking for some more info from people that owned them. What I found instead was a group of people that love their rides and care about each other. A kind of Slingshot family. (A dysfunctional one thanks to @Tripod) :D
    That being said, I probably wont be on here much, or at all, from here on out.
    I had a couple of injuries at work that delayed a purchase, but now, buying one definitely won't be in my future. Without going into too much detail, I have some health issues that I'll be dealing with over the next few months, and probably won't be in any condition to enjoy one for quite a while, if ever, so, I have to let that thought go.
    To those few of you know know what's going on, thank you for the support. You have been awesome. It'll all work out.


    But, to everyone on this forum, I just want to say, You have made this the best online community I have ever been a part of. Please take the time to thank the admins of this site. They have built something great.
    Hopefully everything will work out down the road and I can have a chance to meet more of you. Keep having fun, keep the pedal down, wind in your face and the wheels on the ground!


  • All the best to you and hope that you keep your spirits high and things go your way. As we say in Canada " keep your stick on the ice" ---- Tripod, thats a ice hockey term in case your wondering. Take care

Please - have faith!

  • @Joker256 - One thing you need to know about the people on this forum. We have ALL become a part (however dysfunctional) of a great and wonderful family for one another. Whether you ride or desire to ride...makes no mind to us. We have all been here, through thick and thin, for anyone who has the gumption to sign in and talk about, well, just about anything Slingshot. And sometimes, we don't even talk about our Slings!!!! Sometimes, we just reach out to talk...about nothing at all!!!! We just want to converse with "not-so-normal" people.


    The one thing that has impressed me about the folks on this particular forum....their willingness to help in more than just the capacity of mods!!! I have seen folks reach out and offer support in more ways than I can count. THAT, is the one true jewel of the folks here!!!! THAT is the one constant that will remain!! WE WILL ALWAYS BE HERE!!!!!!


    PLEASE, do not, for one moment, think you are alone in whatever you are going through right now. Not only have YOU built a following, here on the forum...You have accepted us as your family. And with that, we have accepted you as ours. "Never is a burden so heavy, as the one we carry alone". This need not be a journey you go alone. Regardless the outcome...know one thing...we are here for you. Should you need anything, you need only ask. That's what FAMILY does!!!!!!!! And we are family!!!!! No matter how you slice it, you're stuck with us!!!!!!


    Keep your chin up. We're here for you!!!!! :thumbup:

  • Sorry to hear about your health issues, and I hope you well. If their is anything I can do please don't be afraid to ask. Look at down times as a bridge to better times. No matter how bad it is, the good that is in the future would not be if the bad did not happen.


    take care
