Chilly out there. Imagine there will be some lonely headlights running around this early AM.

Thank you Brian for hosting this again! And thank you George for doing my fork rebuild! Got everything put together including the new steering head bearings (converted to tapered roller bearing), I adjusted the suspension to HyperPro recommend numbers and I'd have to say that it is definitely better than stock.

Thanks for hosting the get together today, Brian. It was good to finally meet some of you guys (as long as I've been here on the forum, this is the first time I've actually met any other members)...even if I wasn't "officially" there (since I didn't ride down that poopshoot you call a driveway

).

Great thanks to Brian&Marissa for organizing the meeting. Thanks to all of the help and advice received I got done about 300% of what I hoped for

 

[AdamK]

Thanks for putting this on Brian. And food was fabulous!

Even if I'm not doing something to my bike I always learn something!

 

[escapefjrtist]

Thanks again to Auburn and Marissa for opening their wonderful home to the gang. Since Auburn was still under the weather a bit, he put me to work on fork rebuilds...gotta say, every day's a learning experience! Glad we got everything back together and working better than when they came in.

Glad to assist where I can. Good seeing all y'all and sharing conversation and laughs, makes for an enjoyable day.

Yes a good time and nice meet up, I really found out just how much of a Opie I am!

I rode a new 16 up at Skagit's Yamaha Demo Day and thought to myself that it almost had to many bells and whistles. AdamsK's 16 was even more over the top with his blue toothed fuse block and wifi code reader.

It was good to see Matt on his new to him 14 that he got from Pops friend yesterday

It was fun riding down back as I ran thru 5 gallons fuel doing some back roads with the guys.

Oh and the food was awesome! Thanks some much for hosting again and again and again.............................. The Aubrun's are the best!

No guts no glory...we have only had two tip overs in all the years and both were people who got short legged getting on their bikes.

 

[Hudson]

Great to see everyone today - Marissa, you outdid yourself with the grub!

 

[harper]

There is no better bargain for eats and education anywhere I've ever been. Thanks for hosting this get together once again, Bryan and Marissa. Thanks to redneckj, ahchiu, and Fontanaman for showing me how to remove and reinstall wheels, replace tires, and balance wheels. It's always fun seeing familiar faces, meeting new people, and coveting my neighbors' farkles.
