Tech Day Escondido (January 27th 2024)

Recommended Posts

Calendar event details

Gates will open at 9am per the usual.
Beware of dogs, they will be removed from the property before the gates open but DO NOT ENTER if you show up early for some reason and the gates are NOT OPEN.
Ring the door bell.

Since the website recently had to get all the stuff renewed that is a good chunk of change out of Randy's pocket.
So would like to have people donate for what ever work is done on their bikes to the website (standard protocol for the work I do)

There are 4 dealers close by (all the major brands including BMW) and the cycle gear is here too.

Same rules as in the past, full workshop with all the tools (Mill, Lathe, Tig Welder) etc. will be made available, this is the time to get advice if needed on set up, we can do suspension sag etc.
Ability to repair AL skid plates if needed is also an option, I am talking cracks, not building you one from scratch.

If you use the tire changer plan to take your old tire away with you.
Oil can be disposed of here.
Based on headcount we will determine if there is enough interest to have the grill up and running.
This is a good occasion for the new people to come out and meet old members (they like to hang out on these things <snerk> ) and put names to faces.

Always a good time, if you have something you want to work on it’s a great place to get it done with plenty of heckling and a minimal amount of assistance.  
Also, sometimes there are hot dogs.  Win/win.

Always a good time at these things.  Sadly, I'm out of state both those weekends.

So far I only have a head count of around 8-9 people.
If there is enough interest we can either do a collection for pizza delivery (or someone can pick it up)

or

We send someone out to get some dogs and buns we throw on the grill.
I am not going to buy in advance this time since I got stuck with a lot of food last time and I dont want to have to eat hot dogs for a month again....
