As noted by road2you above, we're on track - just some personal time required. As long as we all just drop a quick line if we're delayed, that will suffice.

I'm loath to up the post requirement since we've had a pretty good run for over a year; there's only been one BOC stolen and just a few delays here and there. I think we're doing pretty well, so for now I'll leave the post count set at 50.

draig and jrhii - you've both been re-added to the queue. Anyone else want to be added/re-added, just let me know.

RaleighSport - do you need a mailing addy for me? Now that a new batch of BOC stickers is good to go, I'm salivating in anticipation

Hot off the press... or in this case on the press..



DD If where you'd like them sent has not changed than no, if you'd like them sent to a different addy please PM me with the specifics.

If a Mavic 671/672 headset wrench is still in there, a member is looking for one in the ISO/For Trade thread. I had one but I'm pretty sure I sent it off in the BOC. Just thought I'd mention it in case it's still making the rounds without finding a home.

Maybe Road2You had to go back to visit his grandma and forgot the box in his trunk?

This is kind of funny, kind of ironic.. kind of messed up... I'm currently waiting on a couple framesets that are taking quite a while and then this happens, hopefully patience is the better part of sanity and I can keep both.

As a garbageman I've become the go to guy for a lot of people to deal with old crap. Shipping it in a box isn't the best route. I also garage sale and tend to see a lot of people throwing away usable items. My garage breathes full and then blows empty a few times a year. If you want to move this box, it's $15. You may not get anything out of here. Ha, then you have to post pictures.

Alright, I've got some stuff I could start a new box with, however not enough to really get it going I also have the decals that still need to be clearcoated but a few days and they'll be ready to go too (damn humidity), so does someone else want to start a box and I'll send them the decals, do people want to send me crap and I'll reboot the box, or are we still waiting?

I have a few things. I'm not on the list at the moment, thinking I'd sit out a couple rounds. I'll try to remember to check when I get home and let RaleighSport know what I have.

I would be happy to send RaleighSport some items for a reboot. Maybe we should wait until someone tries to contact Road2you? How this issue is handled is up to DD and other BOC alumni.

Whenever the box gets to me I can put a significant amount of crap into it. It might be pretty crappy crap though...

I haven't given up hope on this box though, R2Y did imply that his grandmother wasn't in good health, and Frantik still has a phone number (has it been called yet?)

He hasn't been logged in here since he checked in to this thread on May 24, so maybe he's still out dealing with her health issues.

I am prepared to make a significant contribution if it becomes necessary to start BOC v5.
