Last I saw him, he had a hole in the wall shop down in Socorro NM. I haven't seen him for at least 17 years though. Nice man, though a bit eccentric. DaveP

I've been informed offlist by a CR member with firsthand knowledge that I have been mistaken for 25+ years as to the identity of Joy's ex-husband whose name is still on the shop. I first met Joy about 1981, whereas I'm told she and Dan slpit about 1976. I always just assumed her ex-husband was the Houston auto dealer Daniel Boone. Never asked her, as many folks don't like to talk about ex-spouses.

Turns out the Daniel Boone whose name is on the shop in fact has lived in New Mexico for many years and has remained in the bike business most of that time. Any members in New Mexico know him or his shop?
