Title: Congratulations and thanks to Jags, newest Hero Member
Post by: Danneaux on September 25, 2012, 02:48:26 PM
Congratulations -- and thank you! -- to Jags for 1000 posts contributing to this forum and his new status as a Hero Member! Very well-deserved!

Jags, it is a real plasure having you here as a Forum member, and as a worthy friend to all. I don't think there's a more honest, generous, or giving person on the Forum or off. You can always be counted on for an insightful point of view and your comments get to the heart of almost any issue with humor and directness. It's a pleasure knowing you, and I look forward to your next 1000 posts.

All the best,

Dan.

Thanks Dan. 

I'm thinking about a Sherpa as a suitable model for installing a crank drive motor, if I can settle on the size ( I'm between sizes on the MK3).  So more questions (and posts) to come no doubt.
