Way back when decisions were being made about the 2020 CB1100 Eastern States rally, Inhouse Bob offered to produce the official t-shirt. He offered it not only to those attending, but to others as well.
I thought to present one to each of the 5 really decent Australians riding CB1100s I've met through this forum. So I ordered 6.
Due to that virus it took a while for them to arrive, but eventually they did and, after a further delay that was entirely my responsibility, they were distributed to their final owners. I delivered the last one yesterday.
Here's the point of this story. Bob has refused to provide me with details of his bank account so I can steal all his money pay for the t-shirts. He has also refused to let me pay for the postage which was more than the cost of the t-shirts.
Thank you very much Bob. I and my fellow Australian members really appreciate your generosity. It's yet another example of the ethos that has grown around this forum of which I'm proud to be a member.

Yes, that is very true.
We, the Ontario's members like GoldOxide, Alain Lee and peterbaron received these t-shirts absolutely free, including shipping
We already thanked Inhouse Bob for the shirts and KiowaEagle (who I believe is Alan from Pennsylvania) for free shipment. You guys ar not forgotten!!!
These were done through posts, PM or emails...
 again, Inhouse Bob and KiowaEagle 
P.S. Correct me if I was wrong

My wife Jackie and I have met Inhouse Bob and his lovely wife Tracey a few times in the Asheville area and they are some of the kindest and nicest people you will ever meet. We truly hope that one day they will move to this area , I even offered to mow his lawn !

Aw shucks, y'all 
I am very happy to have found this bike and by extension, this forum. The internet can be a nasty place but the CB1100 Forum is a peaceful little paradise. Guth, Ferret and Cormanus make it a happy home.
I look forward to the next rally. Y'all stay safe and healthy!

I'm afraid I can't take any credit for the shipping but while we're on the subject, how come you charged me $100 for my t-shirt Bob?

Consider coaxing Cormanus++ with you too, maybe to a Covid-free (no borders) rally. Would be a blast.
