Anyone want to go?
I might have to connive to do this since I got my new toy.
I'd probably drop back to B, top start to beat up on Jooooo... er learn the new bike and track. More RPMs available and GP shift quick shift will take a little getting used to

[thumbsup] So you, me, and Frank so far?
Possibly in. I've got some credit to use up with Roger.
Problem is:
1. The 28th is my wife's birthday, and
2. I just started a new job and would feel kinda naughty for taking time off so soon.
Bike should be ready by then, however. We'll see...
Yo, just a reminder that early reg price ends tomorrow for the Oct. 28th date. Might as well save a few pennies if you're already committed to going.
I am tentative. Will know for sure early next week.
@Ian, I still have your power cord splitter thinger. Keeping it safe.
Looks like I'm a go. [shot]
Likely a drive out n back same day for me.
My plan is to self demote to B group and start the shake out process on the 675. PO kept some log sheets, so I have some base suspension settings to click in until I get it resprung. Then there's getting used to GP shift, a heavier bike etc etc. So gonna be starting off very easy.
Yeah - I figure it'll be safe until I decide to stop being slack and retrieve it from you Brett - I ain't skeerd for it.
Get out your long johns!
The low for the 28th is expected to be just below 40.
Still tentative. I decided to have the forks rebuilt this week. The good news is I'll have a brand new motorcycle soon. Well, except for that dent on the tank.
I'm out.

:( Hope to see you at the next one then.
So now we got 4 going (Ian, Devin, Brett, Me), 1 "maybe rider", and 1 "maybe photographer". The excitement builds... Will Ian master the Golden Buddha Mirror Foot technique aka GP shift? Will Brett re-attempt the Star Fox Barrel Roll and ride away rubber side down? Will Devin have hair? Will Ian let me spoon his tire warmers if it gets too cold?! Oh this is killing me!
Looks like we'll be 5 for sure riders. Robert A. from the MD set responded with a 'yes' to the Facey book event I set up on the BAD group.
Someone on here actually gave me a mental cue for GP shift that should work quite well - head down, tap down. Head up, tap up.
I'll check with frank to see if he's still got his propane radiant heater gizmo. I fear Brett will need some thawing.
I'm from the North. This is summer weather up there. I *WILL* pay good money if someone shows up in the AM with a hot cup of coffee, tho.

Not that far north... You were pregnant doging about the night temps a month back
Despite the temps on the autos dash reading 30 when I pulled in to the paddock, it warmed up into a really nice day.
Got some decent footage - though my group sticker could not have been placed more poorly for that >:(
Session 5 (2nd one after lunch for those who were there)

I can't find myself in that vid either. Could it be that you didn't lap me? I actually don't remember seeing you that session but I could be wrong.
