Ahh it’s good to be back. I am originally from the CP area but have been out in the Buffalo area the past 5 years attending school. I just recently took a job back home and I am now here to stay. IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK! I hear there are a few guys on here that I haven’t seen since higschool. JClark, JAdams, and MFantauzzi (who recommended me to this forum) as well as other I am sure. I am currently DD’ing a civic and I am in the process of selling my '06 636 in the hopes of stepping up into a ‘real’ car soon enough. Well, I will see you guys around for sure… Oh and to those who may remember me from back in the day… One word… AFRO! -Paul :thumbup ---

Haha yeah, as soon as I heard there was a decent 518 forum I had to hop all over it. The Buffalo forums are great but I just won’t be out that way too much anymore. And Jesse, long time buddy. I hope all is well my friend. ---

Thanks guys:thumbup Heres a pic of the bike that will be gone Thursday… it’s making me rather sad. ![http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo65/maxwell8888/DSCN2257.jpg](http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo65/maxwell8888/DSCN2257.jpg) And the DD, a 97 hx. It’s clean for what it is, and 38mph highway was nice throughout college. ![http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y229/jamzrowear12/DSCN1638.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y229/jamzrowear12/DSCN1638.jpg) ---

It’s got its fair share of wear and tear from the past few years of Buffalo winters, and approx 35k miles a year worth of driving… but I like to take care of my stuff… lol Thanks! ---
