Excellent.  Thank you, Joe.  One less issue I need to worry about.   [thumbsup]

Well, the good news is that I have a definitive answer as to what's been plaguing my bike all winter.  The bad news is that I don't have a ride for Sunday unless someone wants to dump a new starter in my bike over the next couple of days.  Not a big deal hopefully, since this *is* a two-up ride, I can hop on back with someone I assume?   ;D  Is anyone coming from East Bay/Oakland area by chance?  If not, I'll be caging it to Tambux.

Oh dear lord... I'm wearing YOUR helmet if I'm riding with you.  Perhaps it will be incentive for you not to crash.   [laugh]

(You do know that we need to leave here by, like, 6:45/7:00 right?  And that means you'll be leaving your house at 6:15 to come get me?  I'll buy you a whole cup of coffee at *bux as a thank you, but I won't hold you to it.  That's ass-early.)

If I happen to get my new bike Sat, you're welcome to ride the Supersport Sunday. It's a fantastic 2-up bike.

Belle, you're welcome to ride my monster. Or we can do 2-up on the Vespa like last year. Or was that too terrifying an experience to repeat?  ;)

I'm fine with bump-starting the bike, but we've got a few stops...and unless y'all want to push me a bunch then that's not really reasonable.  Besides, bump-starting on old, cold 944 on a cold morning is damned near impossible.  I'm hoping to drop the old girl off at the shop today.  Changing the starter out is a bit of a bear as it involved removing a case cover and getting behind the alternator or something like that.  I need to find a starter somewhere.  IIRC they can be expensive fresh from the factory. 

Thanks for all the offers of two-uppin'.  I might spread my cupcake around.   [cheeky]  While riding two-up isn't my favorite way to travel, it's perfect for this ride.  I had a blast last time and would/will happily go again with MM and don't mind hopping on the back of anyone else's bike.  MM, no need for another bike for the ride, but I might take you up on it for a return trip to Oakland(??) Sounds like I might have a two-wheeled way to Tambux, but I don't want to ask Spidey to go all the way back out.  We can discuss on Sunday.

It'll be just like college.   [cheeky]

High school actually.  I only dated... well, now that I'm counting...maybe it will be just like college.   [laugh]  I married the last one I met in college, so if this ride goes that well I'll be a happy gal.   [cheeky]

Where can I get this shirt?

My hubby designed 'em.  Just gotta get the file and go to CafePress or something like that.

Suppose I should get off my ass and clean my bike for this run, gahahaha i've been putting it off for a long time now.

mostrobelle

clean your chain and fill your tires to the appropriate pressure.  Everything else is gravy.
