Info for Tech Day next Sun, Jul 24

Postby ChaseH » Sat Jul 16, 2016 7:20 pm

Tech day will begin immediately following our monthly breakfast in Clifton.

Address is 12801 Chestnut St, Clifton

It looks to be warm/hot. We'll have lots of shade with multiple garage stalls open, and additional tented cover erected for the day.

Indications of interest here on the board will help dictate how much food is available.

Also, we'll have cold drinks always out, lunch, and the pool is open. If you want to take a dip, an adjacent changing area w full bath is there. If you have motor oil or other nastiness on your person, please don't jump in the pool before you've washed it off completely. Please bring a towel!

GS 911 will be on site.

I'll wear my swim suit under my Aerostitch. :D

Thanks Chase. I'll bring my old saddlebag with the sticking latch. I want to open it up and see if I can made the mechanism work as smoothly as the new saddlebag.

It looks like I'll be able to make this.

I'm happy to help anyone out on any wiring installs or issues.

Absolutely correct. My mistake and I've corrected the header. This tech day is designed to coordinate with the monthly Sunday VA Breakfast in Clifton.

If you show up on Saturday it will still be hot but there will be little relief.

Thanks Jerry.

No worries, heal up, that's most important. I picked up a few tech tips from you, so I should be able to assist folks with basic maintenance.

I'm looking forward to Tech Day too! As mentioned, will appreciate 'adult supervision' for my first time doing the 12k (24k) service myself.

Almost ready;

It will be hot but we'll be well fed. We'll be eating cold Bon Chon chicken and Chubbys brisket.

No glass by the pool please.
