Well, I figger that if I tell my mom we are coming over for Fathers Day dinner, and since she already has the kids, that will probaly buy us a couple hours in the afternoon. We'd have to be there for dinner at the latest probably by 4. So If you can make it down between 11 and noon? That will gives us 3 to 4 hours of riding. I'll just have to think up tham many hours of routes around here :)

Let me know if that sounds doable.
A dog had his chain reduced one link at a time, every few days, until his chain was so short he could barely move. He never resisted because he was conditioned to the loss of his freedom slowly, over time. Are we in this country becoming like the dog?

That sounds pretty good to me, so count me in! I'll let ZooTech know (if he hasn't seen it here already). I'll call you tomorrow for a final check in. Also, please PM me some sort of directions to whatever meetup location you want to use in your area. Yeah! This will be fun.

Cheers,
Loonette

Going riding on Sunday. Anyone in the area up for a ride. Looks like thanks to Loonette I'm off duty and on the motorcycle.

Not sure yet. I have a butt-load of upgrades and maintenance piling up for my bike, so I figured I need to finally take a day and just do it. I need to flush and fill the coolant (got a gallon of Engine Ice waiting), flush and fill the brake fluid (Valvoline synthetic), install the Caddman Kit and TFI, and remove the reed plates and install coasters in their place. If I manage to knock it out on Saturday I'll give you a call, but for now it's weather-dependant (which isn't looking too good for either day).

I need to get some work done to my bike as well. Now that I have my break-in miles completed, I need to change the oil and so on. Also, I'll be working at the tattoo shop on Saturday, and I'm 90% sure that I'll be subbing for someone at the theater for the matinee show on Sunday (to which I'll take the kids with me so that Dave can still ride on Sunday afternoon).

Hey ZooMan - if you're still doing work on Sunday morning... maybe I can take you up on the offer to use your bike lift...? I'll call you tonight to see what's up.

Cheers,
Loonette

do you guys out in ohio ever ride near the pa border? If you ever have a group ride type thing out that way i'd be interested in meeting up with you. I need to get some longer rides in before my cross country trip and the distance to the pa/ohio border would work nicely for me.

Just thought i'd ask.

Ya never know. I'd like to get out there just to take the tunnel on 70 between Ohio and Pa. I'll keep you in mind anyway.

Tbonee- Loonette may be tied up in the morning working on her bike, but she plans to free me up by 1pm-ish. We could meet somewhere in the middle, or you could ride up if you were free earlier. Let me know you situation and it still sounds like a go to me.

Things changed. I'm free for the day, and I'm hip to either ride down your way or have you up this way. Let me know your situation here, or give me a call.
