2014 Spring Thaw - PRE GAME THREAD

[djelliott]

I was reading through the 31 pages of this - anyone heading down from the Cleveland/Akron Ohio area? I saw a couple mentions

Yes sir. Myself and 2 others will be trailering down from Cleveland.

Well it looks bad for me getting to the this again this year. My lovely POS nissan X-Trail failed inspection, Needs a wheel bearing, a sway bar link, tie rod end, windshield and rear sway bar bushings. I hate this thing. I can do all the repairs to save some $$ except the bearing, i have no press. Sucks balls. Looking at 200 for the bearing and I don't know how much for the rest yet.

I was thinking about riding down. Looks like about 6 hours from me. I could throw the KZ in the bed of my truck though.

There's a skylift ???? What the hell I didn't know there was a sky lift !

Turn right as soon as you enter Natural Bridge State Park. The road goes straight to the sky lift. Nice view and you are about a couple of hundred feet away from the bridge....

Been a long time coming. Sorting out mounting the bags.

Alright, I believe I am officially out. The Thaw is going on during my break from school in between semesters and I believe my fiance and I are going to go spend some time together somewhere. Far too little of that the past few months and it's needed.

Happy (future) wife = happy life. Going to miss you.

 

[Rich Ard]

Well, I look forward to hanging out with the five people who are still coming. Should be a blast!

At least we will have more room in the hot tub this time.

Hey Tim she's looking great!

I too am ready for the trip. Well, almost ready to get her ready.

Aside from flipping over 2 bolts to avoid contact with the lower shock mount bolt, they're on and solid.

So.....I may be back in for this.
I'll keep you fools posted

I'll cancel my calls for the afternoon and wait for more

 

[JustinLonghorn]

I'm still out. Dicks.

 

[Rich Ard]

How are we dicks because you're bailing on a motorcycle trip to sit on a tropical island?

 

[JustinLonghorn]

Take your logic and get the hell out of here. Ha.

 

[CharlieT]

Let's see, Ard.

Option #1. Hang out in the hills of east Kentucky with a bunch of dirty, greasy bikers drinking whiskey and beer, or

Option #2. Fly to some tropical island to sit on the beach, looking pale as a ghost with white sunscreen plastered on your nose, sipping a fu-fu umbrella drink thru a straw.


Now what would *real* man do?




Bring on the whiskey and beer, boys, we're riding in the mornin'.
