  • Oregon tech day

    I start moving into the new place in about a week and while I won't have a garage to work in I have plenty of driveway and a garage tent.

    Since arthritis pain won't let me ride long distances anymore or going to any rallies. Instead I'm thinking of holding a tech day next year at my place in Willamina, OR. Anybody interested or would just end up being Poprock and me?

        Does your new place have tent parking space?
        I might be able to come up there again, since a trip through the Spruce Goose museum is always good for a day.

            Here's the Google satellite pic of my place. I drew in the red lines approximating my property line.


            I have a bit more than 1/3 of an acre and the side lot would be open for camping. I could rent a thunder hut to put out there if there are enough campers.

            I'm not sure when to schedule this for next year. It seems early fall would work best for me. Spring would be OK too but you can't count on good weather here that time of year. May through August is too busy for me and I couldn't do it in those months. Weekends are OK but Wednesday through Fridays are OK too.

            I have a bike lift and a few air tools and of course all the electrical stuff. Y'all would have figure out what projects we're going to tackle.
