Title: xr100 Garage Flashmob, Sept 30, 2015, 6:30pm
Post by: Chitza on September 23, 2015, 10:56:25 PM
I have an xr100 that needs some attention. The plan is an ongoing Flashmob. The first one will be a general shakedown of the bike. Make a list of all the things that need to be done and a parts list. We will meet on a somewhat regular basis, once a month or every other week so if you can't make the first one there will be other opportunities.

What: xr100 Shakedown Flashmob
When: Wednesday, September 30, 2015, 6:30pm
Where: 1133 Beaver Ave
            Birmingham 35214

Soft drinks and Pizza provided. BYOBeer. Ice chest and ice provided. Plenty of room for parking and bikes.

Let me know if you plan to attend so I can have enough pizza.

I can't wait to get this thing back in the dirt!!!

I'm heading down Wed evening, should be there around 7. Sandy may ride with me, as usual she isn't sure.  :)

I'm stopping in Hartselle to pickup items and donation bucket from Chuck A.

My attendance will depend on a number of factors. I'll try to find time to dig around in the garage for barber donations,  and /or if someone wants to meet there to buy bsa raffle tickets.

Then let's make this a party for the new admin for Bamarides, too! If you don't know Johnny, this will be a good time to stop in and get to know him. As for work on the xr, it will be primarily making a punch list and a shopping list so there will plenty of time to hang around and chatter!

I may be able to come by for a bit on my way home from work,  if I don't get off too late.

Andy, you can attend without tickets :D

Bring Lynn if she's up to it !

Anyone should plan to show up just to hang out even if you don't want to fiddle with the xr!

Sorry, not gonna make it. I got busy putting the transmission back in the GS and just realized it was getting dark.

I will send PMs to those that wanted tickets and make arrangements.

See you at Barber.

Great time last night and much was accomplished. Thanks Johnny and Sandy for making the long trip down and for all you do.

Argh Oh, maydaymike, springer, and Kris joined in as well. We loaded the trailer, unloaded and set up a new generator, ate pizza, and made a punch list for the xr. But the camaraderie was the best part.

That will be a fun ride when finished!

Wish I could have made it but we are drawing to a close on our home renovation and staining the floors took precedence last night.

I hope to be there for the next one!

I had a blast.  Thanks, Johnny and Sandy, for making the long ride.  It's always a treat to see you guys.  It was great to see Maydaymike again, and to watch Springer work so hard.  Argh Oh is always great company.  And the new generator started on the third pull!  It's great to have a neighbor with a 4000 watt (amp?  volt?  something) generator when the rainstorm comes and your power goes and your basement is filling up because of no sump. 

Thanks, Karla, for pizza and good times!  (http://i756.photobucket.com/albums/xx202/KrisCook/kumbaya_zpskaoza0jm.gif) (http://s756.photobucket.com/user/KrisCook/media/kumbaya_zpskaoza0jm.gif.html)

I'm glad I could make it,  and be useful.   I'll be watching for the next one.
