Yea, The last ride was in November and it was only you, me & Darren? Then no ride in December unless he's counting the Toys for Tots thing. Now it's a Saturday thing again?
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Normally I'd prefer Sunday, but this weekend Saturday works out for me as I have autocross on Sunday...

Decisions, decisions, decisions.  I was planning on doing an oil change on the 848 Sat morning and then running it down to Will to have him replace the cam belts.

Then it was to be back to the shop to work on the 240D. Something happened a week ago and it's only making 40 mph up the Pali. Changed fuel filters the other night, no diff. Throttle is getting full travel so it's either tight valves or a clogged screen in the bottom of the fuel tank.

Hmmmm

I will be join you and the rest(2? :)) on this Saturday's ride.  I will be putting on the polyurethane coating on my bare-wood kitchen sliding doors.  It gets moldy when it rains too much.  It was disgusting during the rainy weather couple weeks ago.

i would blame it on that, except i figured out it's the flu. this thing is kicking my ass.

but serves me right, as i forgot to get my flu shot this year.

Next time take some Umcka at the first sign of a cold or the flu, i.e. scratchy throat, runny nose...I swear this stuff works...

Maybe we'll see you next month, maybe before, but as of yesterday we're not doing anymore Saturday rides if I have anything to say about it.  >:(  Not that I didn't have a good time while it lasted with the few folks that were there but 4 or 5 guys doesn't really cut it unless it's my group of 4 or 5 guys and we're out having our own ride.


BTW... where did you guys go after I split off yesterday in Kalihi?  I had work to do at the shop.
