Scott's Ride 5-8-10 Hebron, CT

That's what the comforter would be for.... I think Wa-loaf got a new one for his B-day last week

I thought that was for your sleepover.

Sounded like it's going to blow through in the morning, which should be ok for the afternoon ride unless the place is really wet.

I guess we won't really know until Saturday... But yeah, if it's really wet, better to not trash the trails.

I got my rear shock back together yesterday with new seals and it seems to be holding air, so I'm def. down if it goes down. Hoping the weather cooperates.

No additional holes in your face?

No, although I should have been wearing hearing protection when I dissassembled the thing. I knew it'd make noise, but it sounded like a gunshot. My earings were ringing for a bit afterward.

Oh well, live and learn.

Good to know.

 

[Marc]

Good to know.

If you're just taking it apart to grease the seals, like I should have done periodically before it did the stuck down thing, you don't really need the protection. It's only if you're taking it apart under pressure, like I had to. Because I'm an idiot.

Yeah, I got that part. If I take one apart it'll probably be for the same reason as you. Because I too am an idiot.

Okay kids, here's the deal...

The rain-date is next Saturday May 15th. Same time. I am keeping posted as to whether this cancels or not.

I will be sending address and phone # out via PM. Best course of action is to meet here first and arrange as much car-pooling as we can. Parking is very limited (Marc, it's not at the Cul-de-Sac, but the town lot up the road) Afterwards, there's 2 grocery stores nearby if you want to grab anything then (or bring it on down and drop-off before heading over, whatever) We will head back to the ranch and drink excessively (and cook and stuff) I would expect ~ 10 people (and Marc) if'n you're pot-luckin' Otherwise, BYO.

In the event of a rain cancellation, I can't make the 15th, prior commitments. So the ride is totally your call, but I won't be around unfortunately. What I'd like to do, since many of you are making a donation despite the crummy economic climate to help someone you don't know, is re-group and set-up another ride when the weather is more likely to cooperate on a date that works for everyone.

I really appreciate the AZ-ers who have helped-out. Thanks a ton.

Your involvement in getting AZers to participate it admirable Paul. I'm sure his family really appreciates it. I hope this event is a huge success, despite the weather.

If the weather is ok, it looks like Jamie will be coming with me. Maybe we can get him to bring his trials bike and people can make donations to watch him do his thing

 

[wa-loaf]

Sounds good. Some other time is prob better for me too if it rains out. Any idea on when they plan on making the call?

 

[Paul]

Mike should be posting on the FB event page. I'm hoping for a go/no-go by tomorrow.

 

[Marc]

Can I yell at the rocks?
