I just found a small leak in my roof. I'm broke, therefore out.

I have some tarps if that helps at all!!!

Thanks, I have a few myself. It's a very small leak (at least it was when I left the house this morning) and I knocked out the small piece of drywall that was wet. It's dripping slowly into a five gallon bucket at the moment. With any luck I can get a roofer out at a reasonable rate (lulz) to patch it. If I can't I'll whip out my caulk and at least seal it until this damn rain stops.
Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

Brian and I trailered out there behind his jeep the day before and camped overnight. Most people recommend trailering to the track. Pepe has ridden out there, so you can ask him about that. Probably best to figure that out for sure just before the 2 week discount registration deadline when number of folks is more firm.

Heh, I used to ride my bike up to the track in the morning and ride back afterwards. [laugh] But the best way is to trailer up the day before and either camp (weather permitting) or get a motel room nearby.


EDIT: just saw Jim's post. Riding the bike up there wasn't a huge hassle, I would prepare everything the night before, pack the essential tools and head out early in the morning. Roger and his crew have always been cool with me and reassured me that if anything went wrong with the bike they would find a way to help me get it back home. [thumbsup] For me the main negative of riding the bike up is that it gets really exhausting to the point that I would end up skipping work the day after.
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

This could work for me since there is nothing on the NESBA circuit for that weekend.  The 16/17th are at VIR North track so I will have a weekend of rest in between.  If I can get a hold of a trailer I could help someone else get their bike up there.  I normally fill the back of my cab and bed with all my gear, so getting 2 peoples stuff in it would be interesting.

Camping for sure....I can bring the smoker for some tasty smoked chicken and meat
