56 on Thursday.
« on: January 21, 2009, 12:21:23 AM »
The ride is on, everyone take half days or call in sick.

40s in Fenton?
Flood wall?
Carondolet before Lemmons?

Its about doing it the right way once instead of a convoluted way every time you want to make a change.

I'm riding to work tomorrow, and get out at 5.  I'm down for a ride after that.  And obviously Lemmons for trivia.

I plan on the night ride although I won't be able to stop because my bike might die and not restart for a while,  I still need to mess with the carb.  Suggestions welcome!

Yeah one day I'll get a new pipe. I'm ok with the speed for now. It is perfect for me since I am still learning.

when the bike is running wary anything that seals with carb cleaner. If the idle or running speed drops there is a leak there. Throughly check base, head, exhaust, and intake. After that if nothing is present check the case halves.

You put new seals in, right?

I'm going to try and ride with everyone but I am going to pass on Lemmons.  Everytime I walk in that place I always walk out drunk!  I wonder what that could be?

I'll be leaving the 270 and Olive area around 6 so I don't think I'll be able to ride with you all.

I am gonna try and go for a spin around the neighborhood tonight though.
