This is the page that got me started with HCS. Rob and me had some pretty good conversations about the 02 XC600sp that we both owned.

I joined in Dec. 2002 when I heard about this site that had Firecat info from Arctic's engine guru Greg Spaulding.

It was I nice having access to Greg. He would post almost ever day answering questions on the F7. Joined HCS in Dec. 02 as well. Many don’t know where “Mileage Psycho’s” comes from.

My F7 was crazy fast.

He had been doing great for the past year or so. He told me several times getting the Focus RS was what helped lift his spirits. I'm just glad that we got a chance to spend some quality time together this fall. Not only was he my friend, he was my mentor. He taught me everything I know about photography and building and maintaining websites. It's going to be strange not chatting with him daily via email.

So sorry for your loss, CKF, and anyone else who knew him.

Very sad news!

Ask Denny....I was teasing Rob and him one day back then, and called them both "mileage psychos", because they rode so much.  That and a buck fifty will get me a cup of coffee.

I'm not sure if Denny knows about Rob. I'll send him a message on FB and let him know.

I never even thought about that, he hasn't been around much, I know he broke his wrist recently, and has been dealing with that, and his mom dealing with her Alzheimers. :bc:

I've been chatting with one of rob's neighbors about moving the weather station and webcam to his house. I think rob would have liked to see the webcam and weather station continue on. Because of their elevation it gives sledders an idea of how much snow they might find on the upper elevation trails.

Great idea.  Is the neighbor interested in having them at his house.

It sounds like they would be honored to carry on. He even said he would upgrade his DSL service if needed. His wife was rob's lawyer so they had a pretty close relationship.
