Title: Dust um Off to Breakfast With The Beetles
Post by: lovebus (jack) on May 09, 2009, 04:05:51 pm
Well only 4 guys showed up for the cruise so we changed up and went for "Breakfast With The Beetles" instead. Bob, Greg, Mark and I went to the Clayton Diner for breakfast.

Guess who showed up at the park with his BUS, yup, Mike P.  Mike surprised us by showing up in his bus. Way-To-Go-Mike!! :icon_cheers:

Thanks much for the props Jack ... I could not have done it without Marty's help! 2 very long weekends trying to get that rear axle nut off! It gives a NEW meaning to nut buster! It's a long story.

Anyway ... good to see you all and being seen in my Bus .... "Lucky". I did remember seeing John G there ... he was nice to me and very complimentary to my Bus. HOLD ON ... that couldn't have been John .... don't tell anyone but I think he has a non-evil twin!

I hope we wern't going 65 mph. That means my Speedo is reading correctly. It's usually 10 mph higher than what I'm actually going!  :police:

My speedo said just about exactly 65 all the time we were in the left lane. My tach was reading 3,000 RPM's. Seems about right :D We passed a lot of cars that were in the right lane. drive&&

Ooops  ;D Well didn't Hitler design them to cruise on the autobahn at around 65 mph? I forget what the kph is. Cause she really purrs around 65-70. I've had her up to 75 then she start to sound scary.  ;D

What I ment was didn't Hitler require them to cruise at 65mph I thought that was one of the specifications or whatever of the bug.

I think 65 MPH is around 100 KPH. Nice even number.

ROFLZ yeah, my car seems to run best around 60-65. Lately it's been running poorly through 1st and 2nd gear and my valves are tapping. Going to mess around with it on Wednesday.
