Dear Mr. Strout:
Chicago will miss you. You’re a stand-up-out-of-the-saddle kind of guy. You’ve inspired us to ride long, very long, so damn long. Your family is fortunate and so are the franchise owners of the Waffle House. You’ll be a great addition to the new company, no doubt. Thank you for the encouragement, the insight, and the camraderie out on the trails that has helped us out. We only ask but one small favor of you as you prepare your new home and new life.

Make sure you have enough floor space for all us bozos who will want to crash at your place to ride what’s around you!

Sincerely Derka,
The Bonebell Crew

P.S. We make excellent crash test dummies *wink wink*.
