Bike Tech day Escondido - Sat July 22

Recommended Posts

Hi Tom

Great memories of you and I sneaking in hard copies of relief maps into Chris Crawdaddy's GPS only Husky monument ride.  At least we didn't get lost!

Trophy was on that ride.  See if you can tear him away from his  PW birthday event for a short time.  Heard from Bikeslut Bob or Fakename Paul?  Would like to run into them again.   Looking forward to seeing you there.

I know the answer to your last question Dave.

Because of hijinks, mischief, mayhem and outright treachery,  none of us would make it to the top.

To those coming on saturday

if working on the bike shop space is first come first serve those coming to hang can park on the rv slab. Please dont park in the driveway ride into the back yard through the gate this will ensure plenty of room for up to 30 riders.

I have most any speciality tool needed for working on the bikes including some bmw specific tools. If you have your own and want to bring them i suggest you do so.

the only thing i ask is people be cognizant of where to dispose of used oil filters etc since inwill bring them all to the recycler after the event.

if anyone has questions please dont hesitate to ask when you get here.

I am bringing my YZ for oil and filter change and chase an electrical bug that's causing a mid RPM and mid throttle misfire. Just going to pull and clean connections this time. I've still got that fatty front tire to give away and a few other items I'll pick out tonight.

What a great thread. oil change, air clean, sprocket and chain evaluation. Tire changer? (besides my hands and 3 bars) and balancer? weights (buyable in the area?)  .  Or just watch others with a brew in my hand. All super good.  Thanks.

Worse case change the tire take over to cycle gear for balancing

i dont have a balancer use Rideon to dynamically balance tubless tires if i cant get them balanced for some reason.

works for tubes as well but you cant patch them if you get a puncture
