I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do. Evacuated to BR for Katrina and wound up in False River for a few weeks. Hated it. I'm planning on staying now.
Bill, you hanging or leaving?
Oh...and I'm throwing the 8 in a multi level garage if I don't leave. I'll have the motorbike for post-hurricane exploring. Easier to go around trees and ****.

Boy did it rain hard up here! I wouldnt think of moving down to new orleans for about right now. I was down there for the army during katrina, even though it was a bigger hurricane, This one brought alot of rain and N.O. did get flooded in some areas. I would suggest letting the workers and volunteers get things straight bfore moving down there. There would be great opportunities for a job though.

Made it thru fine. Kept the 8 parked, used the suzuki. Needed to conserve gas.

Hey all, just checkin in. Hope everyone made it ok during the storm. We had a little wind damage here nothing too big tho *down trees etc*. Just got power back yesterday.
I talked to nightmare on the phone yesterday. Everything is ok there, hes just without power and utilities right now. He should be back soon tho.
and yes whody i think the rim will fit but it prolly requires some fender rolling.
