The roads are not bad, some detours still exist from the last storm. Salt is minimal. I rode up in Warren and Sussex last Sunday without incident.

Bummer! Time to get a road worthy mount back in the barn.

Sorry Doc, can't make it tomorrow... Have a great ride.

**rmb** · 11-12-2011, 07:23 PM

I'm out too, might try to get a few miles on her and wash her for the winter nap...

ST-DocLizard1 · 11-12-2011, 08:28 PM

That's OK; maybe next time guys.
Deb and I are going out for a spin tomorrow.

Happy trails,

Doc

zaq123 · 02-14-2012, 12:46 PM

wanna ride.

Spring is a little over a month away, let's plan something. At least something to look forward to.

**rmb** · 02-14-2012, 01:11 PM

Sounds good to me!

ST-DocLizard1 · 02-14-2012, 01:25 PM

I'm ready, but my right knee may take a little time.
Diagnosis: Degenerative Osteoarthritis.
The cortisone injection lasted 3 weeks.
The first of 3 Euflexxa injections was yesterday.
Hoping for the best to avoid a knee replacement.
Looking forward to getting out on the road with you guys.

It's been a mild winter, but there's gotta be some animals what gone to their greater reward behind a dumpster, awaiting me to baptize them into the Great Beyond

fjrrider08 · 02-18-2012, 06:28 AM

Hey Doc, I think a good ride down some twisty roads is just the medicine you need

All the best on the recovery.

zaq123 · 02-18-2012, 03:33 PM

rmb, how are you doing with your fork rebuild? all done?

**rmb** · 02-18-2012, 07:46 PM

I'm picking up the free forks tomorrow, I'll play with them so I know what I'm doing when I take mine apart, don't want to risk messing mine up...

I figured that but they should give me an idea of what to expect as far as the valves go right? I know the rebound adjustment part will be very different.

You'll have to let me know how that goes. I'm in the same boat - want an upgrade, but have never torn into forks before.

Take some vids, eh?!!

Not near Newark, close to Clinton. Go to Pilot's website, look for Rt. 78 exit 12 for directions.

ST-DocLizard1 · 03-26-2012, 02:46 PM

Spring Shakedown Swarm

ASSEMBLY: Pilot Station, Interstate 78/Exit 12, Union Township, NJ. (be aware of the traffic pattern for ingress/egress)

KICKSTANDS UP: 10:00 am

ROUTE: Over the river and through the woods. No mixed surface/no water crossings. An afternoon dunch will be in order with an easy jump onto Interstate 80 or 78 for a swift return back to your nest. Be fueled and fed prior to departure.

Post-up so I can get a headcount.

All are welcome, but for the sake of the any new comers, please review the link listed below. It may answer a lot of questions and set some boundaries.
