  • I'm going to be heading north sometime Friday (planning to ride north, anyway) and meet up with whomever comes along 35...

    Not quite sure what the plan is right now or how everyone's schedules will coincide... but where do you think you'll be around noon Lee?

    • I spoke with Lee about this but I haven't heard for sure from Bob Falter yet. Our tentative plans are, Bob will head down here Thursday morning and meet up with me. We will ride to Wichita and visit Ivan for awhile. We will stay somewhere around Wichita and get up early the next morning, meet up with Lee and head to Hurst. If we get an early start, that should put us at your place around noon.

      Lee, I haven't heard from BigDick on his plans but he is welcome to join us.

                • Well... I suppose that depends on what it needs... but more than likely... yep...

                      • sounds to me like he has a stuck float that is flooding #2 causing it not to fire.

                          Sheesh, I got to read more carefully, missed this post completely. I talked with bigdick yesterday and he will let me know if he can make it. Before this my plan was to leave out a pre-dawn and head south solo, trying to beat some traffic and heat. IF ya'll stay in Wichita, pm with with your location and I'll meet ya there. Terri is taking the car so there is room to pack your stuff making for a nicer ride. Christ, after this last weekend, I am so ready to get out on the road. BTW, I am going down to see Ivan tonight, will post after.

                          • Hey everyone. Its kinda hard to find parts to something that is just a couple days away. Does anyone have a extra set of coils/ carbs?? My boss has a bad coil or two and also has some bad carbs! He will come if he can ride

                            So if you have some spare parts and can bring it with you... i have CASH MONEY!

                            Oh and i know i still owe TRBIG some money to... I think just whoever please remind me
