June 10th-Tech day at Rybo's!

[rybo]

There have been a lot of tech questions lately, so let's start looking at doing a tech day. My garage is huge and I have a decent set of tools so I can offer it up as space. It's pretty far for some of you, but it might just be worth the trip!

Cathy, up north here, was looking to do this a while back too. I'm pretty handy with the general maintenance stuff. I might be able to get IRDave to show up and talk about suspension. We can cover changing coolant for track days, chaning oil, brake fluid etc. Setting chain tension and all kinds of other good stuff.

Then we can adjourn to the patio for burgers and stuff...

Lets start looking at dates....but if you're interested please fill out the poll above

Thanks

Scott

[pauliep]

the poll looks to be at 100%, hehe

Hopefully this gets to happen with in the next couple days because I'm heading out shortly :/

[CurtisRR]

Great idea Scott!

If I was in CO I'd come hang out.

Props to you for offering your space & assistance.

I think this would be a great idea. I still don't know where Milliken is but I'll find it. (Does it appear on Colorado state maps - lol j/k)


I would also be more than happy to bring a salad or hordevours or whateva for the "patio time".

[konichd]

Dare I say this would be "RAD!"

[BoulderNinja]

Where the f. is Milliken?




I would be really interested....pending the date.

[Sortarican]

I'm in.
It would be great to do this before the big track day in July too.

Let me know if there's anything I can contribute, either to the tech session or the bbq.

[Devaclis]

I am all over this. Let me know if I can bring anything. Well, within reason, I WILL be on the Hawk after all

[konichd]

If your in Denver and don't want to ride up to Milliken I'd have 2 open spots on a 2 rail trailer for anybody

[Devaclis]

I hope you have a big trailer.

'cause I wanna put my bike in it.

[64BonnieLass]

Well if you boys want to use my bike to demo how to shave a seat for midgets then I may take you up on that DK. Cause I"m not riding it until I can touch the ground. I'm funny that way...

[Devaclis]

Ter, we can even do this on Sunday if you want. While I am putting on your frame sliders

[rybo]

Yeah...get this done so you can go and ride! I want to see this new bike you speak of!

[cdbouncer]

hehe...I can bring VOID - he can tear anything apart still a little leary of the "extra" pieces we have laying around tho

I'm there - depending on the day

[mtnairlover]

I heard somewhere that you're also a good cook, so you got me...um, but maybe I shoulda said you had me at TechDay...te he.

Yeppers, count me in and since I'm really close, ask me to help out ahead of time and to stay late for clean up too. I may still be completely clueless compared to most of you guys when it comes to bikes, but I'm ready to learn and help out where ever needed...k.

Dates? It really doesn't matter much, but not May 27. Other than that, well, wait, maybe not May 19 either, k. Other than that...anytime.

[~Barn~]

Can I drive my car over there and attempt to change the oil and air filter?

Hey!... at least I'll have lots of room to bring food!

[rybo]

Yeah...bring the "extra parts" and the bike you think they go to too....we'll see if we can figure out where they fit.

I heard somewhere that you're also a good cook,

Not sure where you heard that, but it's a dirty rotten lie.

All good by me Barn. I'll be sure to have plenty of room for used motor oil.

[~Barn~]

Places like Checker and Autozone still take oil for recycling, right? I have a drain pan that I used for my bike, but now that I think about it, I'm not sure if it would hold an entire car's worth.

I'll have to go check what it's capacity is.

Anyway... I just don't have ramps or a jack or anything. Thats kinda my main problem since I'm not exactly svelte enough to fit under my car.

[pilot]

Sounds great Scott. I'd like to come for the schoolin' May be in Canada then...

Barn...I have ramps for the car if you need them.

[eklew]

Can you show me how to fix my trailer tongue???? hahaha. Scott has a nice lawn as well at his house! I will definitely be there to assist if needed man.

[~Barn~]

You have all kinds of things that I need, Terri.

[rybo]

You have all kinds of things that I need, Terri.

While this may be true, I have a feeling she's only offering up the ramps

[rybo]

OK.....looking at my schedule, how does June 10th sound for everyone?
