Good ,bad or ugly (based on feedback already given) I had a great time. Hats
off to Rob and Karen, as well as Tom for leading us around for 3 days and the
Mob, for their participation too. So what if everything wasn't perfect? It's what
you make of it that matters. I gained some new friends and I hope to be
scootering around with them for a long time. JohnI think John summed up Scooterpalloza, In three words."Good Bad Ugly"
First I want to thank my wife, She truly is the love of my life. And she is so great at almost everything. Without her my life would be less than half she makes up for all my faults and she still stick by me through it all. She Rocks!
As for scooterpalooza the good. The new members they seem to be great people and will add allot to our group. let's hope they feel welcomed and want to join us .
Also some old friends are back Geneva and her husband are really nice people. And Al always makes me feel happy, his smile is wonderful and he has Wisdom and knowledge, of people that must come only with age. I think he is a great man.
A1 scooters Rocks there new scooter line is very respectfull and a lot better than the line he sold before. It will make his life allot easyer and his customers happy. plus now we can recommend, him more to potential scooter purchasers. I feel our club would fail without his support "Thanks Erik".for all your support.
Next The bad ,first of all Karen and I tried to get support .from some of the club members. But the cold seems to make them hibernate. and lack of participation breeds, discontent and lack of progress, Leeds to procrastination and finally. Why should they try no one seems to care . so they give up and think why should we tryat all.
Thankfully It's warm now and they are awake and things are moving forward again. my frustration is fading and soon, all will be well again we have a couple of cool rides, planned for the summer .with Tom and Sarah I hope things will return to the way they were in February soon. learning to be a good friend is harder and easyer than it seems sometimes. I will try to look at it from their point of view more often .and not make them wait on me as much.
And finally The ugly the event in Hyde park got my goat. the Sobs and I still haven't got things worked out sometimes I feel I should just move on. But It is still bugging me and It's been 2 years Now. I will delegate the relationship with them for someone other than me so it wont bring me down.or just move on.
Next Waiting for input, is very very frustrating. Next year i will set a date and time and just go, with it good, bad or ugly. Marketing is the key word for me in the rest of 2008-2009 let's make it happen. become a leaner, meaner, fighting machine. Delegate better and lead at work and in life succeed ,with a positive attitude and make a positive result."Become a better dog".
I will strive to stop the drama in my life. And make them the reason they fail not because, I was involved. Make my life and my friend's better and succeed.
Fly with the eagles hang out a little less with the turkeys. or at least be a really awesome turkey until next time ,
peace love and scootering is all I need. Rob
