      It looks like I will only be able to make it Sunday, as I now have to work that Saturday.

          if the offer is on the table then yes i would vote for a tech session.
          adjusting the valves or maybe something easy would be ok.
          if we can fit it in the time frame.
          speaking of time frame lets plan a ride and where the ride would be.

            I agree with the tech session, and that we need to get things lined up. Because i have not done this before, i have no idea of what to expect. I wil reserve two sites, one for me, and an extra. Can someone tell me the norm for the amount of food i need to bring? Must be hard getting enough food on the bike..

              On another note: I would like to thank Larry in Kelso, WA. for helping me with the bike on Sunday. It is a different bike all together.

                There are stores and restaurants near the camp ground.Geezer volunteered to do a tech session on charging systems.I can do one on anything electrical as well if anybody wants.I've adjusted valves but I don't think I'm qualified to teach it.As far as rides go we can plan 30 to 300 miles.Just depends on how far everyone wants to go.

                  Sounds great. So who wants to organize it? I'm ready to send my share of the money to reserve a camp site.

                    Hey Tony since you are the closest one I think you're the best qualified.

                        I'm not the closest but I could be the busiest this time of year. I'll consider it if no one else wants too but honestly I'm swamped.

                          Hey guys,

                          I was volunteered to start a new/another job on that Saturday, however I have been able to reschedule the start date and I now have the both that Saturday and Sunday free. With that being said and since Tony is way too busy, I will step up to the plate and volunteer to do the organization if that's works for everyone else.

                          I plan on riding up to the camp ground early Saturday morning arriving around 8:30 or 9:00 and I will be looking into getting a site reserved for Saturday night. Tony offered to do a charging system overview for a tech session which sounds good to me. I will look into the rides we could do in the area; given the Detroit Lake location I would suggest a ride to Silver Falls for one of the options.

                            Once again, your efforts are greatly appreciated. If it would be better to reserve our came sites now, I could send you my share of the money. I'm expecting to need a full camp site for myself and family.

                            How many others are willing to commit to showing up?

                                I'll be there!! I have not reserved a campsite yet. Just need to know which part you all think we want to be in. It seems there are different sections. Be nice if we could all be close.
