Kick Uli out of the country

So, it finally happened, I've got my orders (pending tomorrow's medical clearence exam) and I'm shipping out to Iraq on the 15th of November.

Ja, ja ..., who the hell cares, you say? Good point and I just can't come up with a good comeback to that one. None the less, comeover to my place on Saturday if you want to take the opportunity to see me drunk on Mescal one last time. I'm kidding, I better not see or smell any of that mexi-fuel in my yard.

When: Saturday the 1st
Where: 2139 Orchard Ave, Grand Junction

So, I'll make some green chili and fry a turkey (must celebrate passing the med clearence). You pay homage to me with beer and other fabulous refreshments. Bring yar bike and we'll have an old fashioned KTM engine-oil-leaking competition -- it's my specialty this year and I've been in training with the 625 --.

Since the ex moved out of the house (I know you were all wondering when that would finally happen), there is plenty of room to crash out on couches, a guest bedroom, soft floors, and holding on to the toilet as you swear for the umpteenth time that you really love this nice cool porcelan god.

Please keep in touch as best you can. We are proud of ya man!
be safe!!!!

Damn, I wish I could come over and see you off, Uli. We're really gonna miss you around here.

How long will you be gone?

Uli be safe over there man!

Ahh Sh*t it finally happened huh:huh I hate to see anyone go over there ya know but I have good faith that you will watch your back.Brainlesswife and I would love to come to your little party but its just not possible at this point and time,plus there is no 31st on Saturday so that makes it really impossible.Take care and be safe!

Brett & Anna

P.S. This should mean that you will be back stateside for riding season correct?

Uli, Saturday is the 1st.

Stay Safe over there and let us know where you will be so's we can send ya SHTUFF!

Never met you but as is typical for this site, feel like I know you through various posts. Be safe over there and come back to ride, ride, ride!!

Best of luck to ya, Uli! Kick some serious terrorist keyster over there, and come back safely to Colorado and tell us all about it later.

Uli,

Yeah man what they said. Never met (at least not that I remember) but be careful and come back safe. You have to show me the Uncompahgre single track someday.

Steve

good luck, I go to Afganistan in the spring.

Uli, best wishes sorry I wont be able to make it up for the send off. I know there will be kick ass food eating and drinking happening.
Stay safe

Hate to see ya go big guy but the timing couldn't of been much better JA?
You'll be back for St Paddies?

If the get together is indeed Saturday, We'll be there, the whole fam that is!!
We should have our camper on by then so we can just crash in the driveway.
I mean SLEEP in the driveway, no crashes allowed!!

Looking forward to it Uli!!!

I can't believe you are actually going! You are going to be sorely missed around here Uli! Please take good care of yourself (especially while frying that turkey -that's dangerous work there! ), keep in contact as best ya can and we will see ya next spring!

Good on you and stay safe.

I hope all of your days in Iraq are safe ones. :huh

You will be back for O'Kokopelli III, right? If not, send me your address, I'll send biscuits.

You will be missed (and worried over).

Julie

I'll be there for the party and will bring the mezcal and some good cigars!

Good luck Uli!

Uli, I liked you instantly, though we only met once (at the Escalante jumpin' pools). Stay safe.

OK. I'm polishing my ass kicking boots to knock you out of here, but good! Looking forward to it bro. Wouldn't miss it for the world. Hope to see as many ff's there as possible.

I'll try to get by... went with you and a few of the FF's to Mineral Springs at the beginning of the season and tried to catch up ever since... You're a stand up guy...

Be safe and I hope to see you Saturday.
