Hello Lads and Lasses. It is I, Jimbo, of the Black Sheep Scooter Club in San Francisco Ca. I met a few of you last year when I visited. I apologize for my lack of German skills. I was introduced to you via a local Scooterist Arne Gerhart. I want to let you know that our annual run is coming up in 2 weeks so if by chance any of you are in the area you should come. The dates at August 9-12. PM me to get details. Ta

You sir, truly are a Freak! But the kind of Freak that I like. I will be back again. I figure every 2 years or so. I can't believe that here they sell Airwalks with lace protectors. I should have taken a photo. Make sure to tell the guy with the Santa Cruz shirt to contact me, I'm sure I can help him realize his dream of vintage skater t-shirts. You all are very nice, not at all like everyone said.

Wow, missed this and didn't get a chance to explain. What, Sir, do you know of Miss Wine?

Mein Gott! That was some good Schwabisch vittles. What a great back up spot you picked. Thanks so much to all of you for showing me a good time. I am enjoying your beautiful country very much. I hope that I have dispelled the idea that I am not a real person. Cheers, Jimbo BSSC

Hey gang, I checked the website for info on what's going on at the castle tonight. No dice, looks like a nice joint though. So what gives, cats and Kittens? Is it a DJ night? Pull my coat, bitte.

Yes I'm real. Been real for a while now. May I ask, what is happening at the Romer Kastell tomorrow anyhow? Is it northern, Skinhead Reggae, a band? Last time I was here I went to Potsdam and my friends the Aggrolites were playing with John Holt. That was fun. What time does this thing start? We are doing a Necker tour tomorrow and Oma is watching the kids later so we can sneak out and play. Anyone have a link to the festivites. Thanks for resorting to a little English for me. I am a guest in your country and appriciate the courtesy.

I'm the big guy in the Cocksparrar Shirt. Arne and Michelle and the rest of us are the Dodgeball Champs at the SF Classic, the largest vintage only rally in the US. I am the Vintage enforcer. My wife looks nothing like this, if you think i'm posting a picture of my wife for you whacked out scooter boys you are more mental than I imagined. But thats kinda cool. Here's the Blue rally which I sold and the "Two Tone Commando" 66' SX 200. Engine specs (Just completely rebuilt by myself) Race Rapido, GP crank, Jap rod stroked to 218, LTH Reed Manifold, Cylinder and MBD Race tour piston prepared and ported by Tony Simoni of 226 Vintage, 5 Plate clutch, 30 mm Lectron carb (get one they are the shit) Taffspeed pipe, Electronic jazz, 15x46 SX 200 gearing, Spider and Crown welded for strength, AF light flywheel, Rebuilt SIL electronic with Piaggio electronic trigger (all wiring replaced with good wire and solder). Chasis wise I've got BGM front dampners (so much better than daytonas, an R6 shock in the rear, Clauss engine mounts, Heidinau tires, stock SX disc up front, reverse pull but going to a drop in hydro conversion when I get back. I'll be building a TS1 225 cut down street racer for the wife as soon as I can afford an LTH front disc. The wife rode a Vethspa for many years all over San Francisco but ditched it finally because "I want something faster". There you go, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Hallo, that's the extent of my German. Apologies. Arne told me to say hi. I'm a friend of his from San Francisco. My wife and I are in Leonberg and wondering what's going on at the castle Romer on Friday. I'm Jim, Black Sheep Scooter Club. I ride a Lambretta.
