Hey its cool to see a fellow Ford fan from near my old stompin' grounds!

I grew up near Hazel SD, and went to high school at Hamlin High School.

Hamlin's and De Smet's rivalry in my high school days, made the Vikings and Green Bay (in the old days) games look like Sunday School!

BTW, it was a balmy 60F yesterday and 54F today in Rapid . I sure dont miss the temps you guys get in De Smet.

Rapid City is essentially the Banna belt for SD.

I even got to see about 15 bikes on the road, it was really strange seeing a Harley cruising down the interstate in one lane, and in the other lane a snowmobile tralier loaded with selds!

Hello to the banana belt from frigid De Smet. Sorry I can't attest to any school rivals as we are transplants. My wife was born and raised in Sioux Falls or Sewer Falls as I'm want to say. Me I'm very east river, I hail from Michigan. Which I left when 18 for the Army and married into SD. I tell people I'm just a tourist

But I do love riding in the hills, 'specialy Needles. Now that's a ride.

Oh yeah it just tickles me no end when they show the 'great' Sioux Falls on tv and it is always brown with some kind of foam mixed in, hence the"Sewer Falls"

SoCal... I'm sorry, fordfan. At least you were smart enough to get the hell outta there! I feel the same way about my flight from KS...

Glad to see ya here! Yeah the word does travel slowly I guess... I threw up a vote w/ Matt to get the forum started, but then it took me 2 days to realize the forum was created!

But then again, I am a jackass.

Don't feel so bad, I wasn't even the first person to realize it was up.

If you guys see members from the states, but not in here yet, just add a line to your post,

"---- check out our new chapter!"

There are so many people here that we should be able to get something done about boosting membership, and getting a logo made.

I had to change my email, and the confirmation email never got sent, so I need to have one of the admin open it back up.

I was thinking though...I could just start another username every year, and then you guys wouldn't see just how many posts I really make.

Its kinda frightening.

Thanks, Dennis!

Unfortunately, I'm on a double-slow dial-up connection right now. I don't have RealPlayer, and it's a friggin' 10MB download.

I'm getting my cable modem hooked up next week, I'll be sure to check it out then!
