Puttz
I see its Puttz birthday today. A couple years ago he was in very poor health. He basically had the same disease that took his wife and he was expecting to go as well soon after. He had got himself a Voyager that he tricked out and had his late wife's face airbrushed on the fairing and said this was his last ride, meaning the Voyager. I was friends with him on facebook but he feel off as his heath got worse. I see he has not logged on here since 7/2013. Just wondering if any one knows if he is still with us or was he at the gates greeting Silent Sam?

I met Putz through PM's when I ask about the mural of his wife on his bike. He gave me that same story. At the time he was about to make a cross country ride and stop by.
He seemed like a very nice fellow. I see he only posted three times. I'm glad I got to friend him. I wish him well where ever he is.

Yeah he is a really nice guy. He did a ride or two into the USA but didn't do traveling of the USA. Just the short trips would wipe him out. When he got back to Canada after a few days on the road it would take him a while to recoup. The other things he did was I think take a cruise with a family member( sister maybe) and go down to south America to visit friends or family. To be honest with you my gut feeling is him and silent Sam are sharing some good old stories on some of the adventures they had.
