Damn that's a long one. Was fun as hell last time though.

Anybody else coming?

That is a really long route.  It looks like fun but there's no way I am going to be able to make it for 1/2 that distance. :)

Seriously though, my friends are going to hang out in the afternoon, so I don't really have much time.  I'll try and meet you at Bob's if I am able... no need to wait for me though. :)

I think last time we were done by 3. U can bail at any point u like. We may not even ride the whole thing. Just come, it'll be fun. I wish one if the "older" guys would show up to lead the group, I really suck at following routes :)

Me too, it's always nice when the old farts haul their tired asses out.

Had fun today with you guys.  Too bad I had to leave just as the riding was getting really good.

Hopefully the S4R stopped leaking oil. :)

It did, thankfully.

However, I now have a different (worse) problem

joh and mo, remember looking at my tire  and trying to figure out that noise? Well those were my Cush drives backing out. And eating away at my eccentric (the metal shavings everywhere that you noticed John). So now I've got to take off my sprocket which I can't do until Monday until my chain adjuster comes and replace them. Going to get a different carrier with the tabs that will keep that from happening again as well.  :-\

at least it didn't eat through to the swingarm. I think my eccentric is still ok too, we could still adjust the chain at your place John.

Also found some Cush drives, new in the package, on craigslist in Denver for $50.

As long as I can still adjust my chain, is my eccentric ok? Any other damage that might of happened that I should look for?

Oh yeah, other than that the ride today was great! Andy you took off right before the good stuff. Could of been a little less windy though.

Jake,
Let me know when you have it apart. I would like to see the dissassembly.

Will do. Should have it all apart tonight. Will depend when my parts come in before I can put it all back together. But if you just want to see it all apart it, I'll probably be doing it tonight after notte.

Really? That's up near my neck of the woods. Riding around Mille lacs? Who you going with? It's a nice ride up there...

A cousin is graduating up there. Riding up eating some potato salad riding back.
So you are from the malmo neighborhood?
