Great time Bruce! Good venue, and good food.

I enjoyed meeting some new members as well.

Thanks Bruce for hosting and thanks Dave and Mark for the assist on my 12k service. I changed the air and fuel filters, changed the ark plugs, and checked the valve clearances. Good for another 12k. =D>

And a big thanks to Jim for the awesome breakfast before we headed out!

Thank you, Bruce for your hospitality and use of your tools. Thank you, Jim for your encyclopedic knowledge and expertise. Thank you, Mike for helping me do my 48,000 mile service. I have only been a club member for a few months but already received more than my dues' worth of value.

I forgot to ask if the club's GS-911 was present. I forgot to check the dianostic codes.

Thanks again, Bruce! I was able to (finally) replace my leaking fork seals, and - more importantly - meet up with some great / helpful / knowledgeable guys. Special thanks to Shane, Jim, Steve, Bob, and Mike. Happy to be a member of BMWBMW.

What was the final talley on ppl who showed up. Sorry I had to leave early but we had to get to delaware for some field hockey matches. I look forward to the next one so I can help out more. What was the general feeling on the new triumph 1200 explorer that showed up?
