I haven't chimed in here yet since I live locally and can simply drop by unannounced, be a nuisance for a couple of hours then go home. Saturdays weather forcast is looking pretty good sooo.... that might be just what I do. As far as work needed done on my bike, I should check my tire pressure, might do that while I'm there.

C'mon out and laugh at my amazing lack of mechanical aptitude!

I think once Sooze and I get up there this afternoon, I'll whip up a pot of chili, and tomorrow Sooze talked about making her really tasty meatloaf!

 
You all have a great time...wish I could be there
23 years she's been putting up with you, Joe... That woman should be sainted. Happy anniversary! Decide where you're going for dinner yet?

We'll take pictures. Maybe we should start a pool to see who gets "Altitude Sickness."

OK, kids.

Most of the rain has moved through. We're gonna get wet, but nothing like SFO '09 (did anyone mention that it rained for 3 damn days STRAIGHT?!?!?).

We've got nothing packed yet, but do have stuff in organized piles.

So we'll be packing up and heading out in a while.

SPOTwalla Clicky.

 
'Tain't raining here... Yet.

Things are all cleared out, just need to tidy up a bit and wait for the ensuing madness :dribble:

Follow us here:

SPOTwalla Clicky. Yeah I tried. Ya ain't moving yet Alice... :p

Just checked spot tracking.. Ya know it would be easier and you'd get here faster if you would turn the bike around...

We are in Bowling Green having lunch with the.niece and Sooze is trying to warm up. 43 degrees and wet ain't fun for her but she's pushing through it.

 
Damn... Well as you come further north it clearing up. Maybe 50 here with sun!

Be safe and try an stay warm you two!

 
I'm headed out here in about 15 minutes, so I anticipate being there around 6:00. Just look for the trailer circling the block, hauling an FJR.

Let Me Try This SpotWall Thing!

Probably screwed it up. In case I did, I'm going NorthEast.

Hey Busta Nut:

I was at your house last Fall for Tech Day 2010, but for the life of me, I can't recall where you live other than in Owosso somewhere near the downtown area.

Can you post up your address.

Too late now Pete, by this current time in Owosso Bust probably has a terminal case of "Altitude Sickness" and can't even read! Worse yet, The ******* is also probably speaking in Swahili now!!!

So we have 4 FJR's in the garage and 4 FJR's without gas tanks.

But it's not all fun and games.

Be afraid.

How Sheila puts up with this ******* is entirely beyond my comprehension! Mizz Bustanut is a Saint, she will never spend a single day in Purgatory, for having to deal with this doofus on Earth!

Enjoy 'em while ya can.. It's going to be summer here today!! The 80"s are rolling in ;)

Tech day II was highly successful again :)

A couple minor snafu's .. Well one major pain on Bill's feckin coolant tube got distorted and unfortunately couldn't be repaired. :( Andy's cam chain decided it wanted to flpo off while shims were being changed oot.. But a like cussing and reference to info here solved that.

Four valve checks, 1 cruise control install,2 CCT swaps, 1 trooper mod, and cleaning up of excess wires on one.

64 beers fought gallantly but eventually succumbed.. Sadly, no altitude sickness to report.

Great time folks. Thanks to everyone who showed up. Ray, Bill, and Jeff deserve special kudos for keeping everyone sane when **** went south :D

 
Hey *******, get to the fecking point: Just how many sheep were abused? Inquiring minds do want to know!

By any chance, you didn't happen to screw a skunk, did you? (I mean, besides Andy of course!)
