It's a reference to a Reddit thread... It's kinda silly, I probably should change it back.

I'm definitely not a stalker. Just because we live closer to each other than was thought, doesn't make either of us a stalker. Marietta is not that big and since we both live on the east side of the county it would be logical that we would eventually cross paths or at the very least drive around close to each others house, especially since certain parts of this county are more populated than other parts.

I wouldnt be getting too close to Maddie for 2 reasons:
1) If I understand that reddit thread, the detailed emoticon thingy he is displaying indicates he is so angry he wants to flip over tables!
2) He is already 'in a relationship' with GN2 (according to You You) and you dont want to get on GN2's wrong side!

I think he was stalker alerting Taz. ;)

We're just neighbors. I'm sure I'll see your wife on her PCX sometime, Marietta is relatively small. :D

We always ride together. I trust my riding because I have been doing it for half of my life, but she rode dirt bikes when she was a teenage and that was about . She has never driven in traffic, so she is building confidence now. We go out as often as possible now. She is getting really good now. I know from experience that too much confidence can be a problem also, but she won't believe me if I try to tell her to be cautious now more than ever.

Me and Maddie went riding at a scooter rally this weekend. A friend got our picture:

Sadly, we were the only PCX in attendance. :lol:

It was warm last weekend, mid-70s when that pic was taken. It's gotten cold now though. :(

The rally had a good turnout, but not great because there was rain the day before and rain in the afternoon after that pic was taken. There were probably 1.5 to 2x more scooters last year. Here's all the scooters from the rally when we stopped at a park for a bathroom break:

Dave, it looks awesome! Don't forget to use the rubber gasket from your original seat or it will leak into the storage box when it rains.

Where did you order it from? We got ours from powerbypcx. Yours has a tag on the left side that ours doesn't, so I am thinking that you got yours from a different place than we did. Still, it looks a lot like ours. It is really nice looking.

A shop called Noiwatdan in Bangkok makes them. They make them for most of the shops that distribute the seats, including powerbypcx I believe. They told me that they ship them in lots of a hundred the sellers.

If you go to the shop in person, they will custom make the seat, usually within two hours. Here is the link to the post I made earlier with pics of the shop. It is like a store front with metal garage type doors that they pull up at the start of the day and basically work in the open air. If shipping wasn't so expensive, and if I wasn't so busy at my job, I would probably start a side business distributing them because I can purchase a seat for less than they are being sold to the dealers for when I go in person. http://hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1888

Here is a link to their site. It will be in Thai, but if you view it with Google Chrome, you can translate it. http://www.noiwatdan.com/index.php?opti ... e&Itemid=1

And in case anyone is wondering, I do not have any connections to this shop, and I do not receive anything from them. I simply posted this as an FYI for fellow PCX'ers
