Actually, I was referring to the one on the 7th next Sat for the 2 valve service.  Guess I should have mentioned that!!!


brew   [drink]
Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver. Deep Thought, Jack Handy

I'll be there, but it's no help to you seeing as I'm in the wrong direction. ;D

So anybody thinking about going to this???  It would be a 130 mile drive for me, but I think I would learn a bunch! And getting some hands on on a bike thats not my own is even better!  I'll be heading from Augusta if I do make it down if anyone else is interested, we could carpool or something!  As far as I know there's one person further north tan myself!

If you want to carpool, I am leaving from Auburn.  Its a solid 2hrs from Auburn on winter roads.

Had fun guys! (and gal)

Its always fun to hang out and talk bikes, it never hurts when someone brings good food and its warming up outside.

Spring is on the way [moto]

Eric,

What is the date for the suspension tuning workshop?
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions.

I vote that we petition to push this date back...

Chances of me finishing reassembly (HURRY UP POWDER COATER!!  [bang]) are very slim and I had eric rework both ends and would like to have him do final setup as well.

How about it?

I think you should show up anyway...

and bring the bike to him when it's ready.

Sorry to get back to the board  late but as you guessed it things are getting busy.

I will not be able to push the date back, my suggestion would be to come to the class and learn what needs to be done/checked. After you get your bike together ride it up some day and I would be glad to see how close we are and check/ set sag.

I also hope the powder coater is not too far backed up as I have a bunch more for him.

Don at PCA is only about a day late as of today  [roll] I have to admit I am starting to get a little anxious and with the weather warming up (now) I'm even more stressed about getting it done. They said it should be early in the week.

Actually I think I am having anxiety about seeing my color choices come together it could be  [thumbsup] or  [puke] in which case I will either be  [moto] or  :'(

Anyways can't wait for these clinics because I lost the notebook where I took down the tighter valve specs that were recomended for the 4 valves and so am holding off on digging into the valves.
