So who's goin' on the Crud Run May 1st? | ||
| Racerx1 |
It was nice meeting everyone at your meeting....looks like you have a great bunch of people! Pretty impressive cover band too. Hopefully we will see some of you at the crud run (I'll be hiding my head in shame on a foreign bike...) or at Blackhawk...Buells ROCK! | ||

No luck with the Slimey Crud again  My wife decided to host a dinner party the night before. And I'm playing in a charity golf outing on Monday. Between the late night in Saturday and early day on Monday, I think Sunday will be a day of rest. Okay...call me a wimp! | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Okay...call me a wimp! WIMP! Boy I sure hope the weather is nice now that I'm calling those who aren't going wimps  | ||

Come on Dennis, it will only be about a 360 mile day for you...assuming you ride the most direct route, only stop for gas, and average 60 mph, you could be home within 6 hours of leaving!  It is still up in the air if I can make it as well. Damn moving van comes that Monday! | ||

I was on the roads for the crud run yesterday, hit Mt Horeb, Blue Mound, Pine Bluff, etc. Found a couple spectactular roads..JG being one of them. Still up in the air about the crud run though, have no idea how busy I wll be but Pine Bluff is maybe 50 miles from me. Aaron, we were supposed to close the 29th, but now it may get pushed up to next monday & im fine with that, the earlier the better. | ||

Steve, Is CJ's tire fixed yet? That Da*n thing!  | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Should be, I'm gonna pick it up tomorrow after work, and go down by CJ's and throw 'er back on. She should be good to go! | ||
| CJXB |
You guys ROCK, it's because of you that I haven't yet poured gasoline on the bike and set it on fire!! CJ | ||
| Kinger |
Glad to hear you will be on the road soon! | ||
| CJXB |
Thanks Kinger, considering I took the bike to Hal's on Sat to have a new tire installed with Fiery and Erics help, rode it about 40 to 50 miles, then flat AGAIN on Sunday morning !!! Brand new tire, 3rd one on the bike with less than 7,000 miles, I mean WTF !!! CJ | ||
| Hellion_hb |
Dude, seriously, WTF?!?!?! | ||
| Kinger |
3rd tire? Was it a nail that killed the last one? Why was it flat again? Bad seal? That would •••• me off as well. I know how you feel. I went through the same thing last year when my bike kept dying! It sucks. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
I rode over to Hals this morning since I was in the neighborhood after my chiropractor appt. Well, If you count 20 miles "in the neighborhood" But anyways, CJ, your tire was sitting next to the service desk, WITH AIR STILL IN IT!  Didn't get a chance to talk with Kevin, he was in a meeting, But I'll ride home after work, grab the van and give ya a call and come down to your place with the tire. And you'll be all set to ride Of course, I'll have to take your bike for a test ride just to make sure everything is good! | ||
| Steve_mackay |
btw, those joe rocket pants ROCK! I can wear shorts to work now! The people in the waiting room at the chiropractor gave me funny looks as I'm putting them back on though  | ||
| CJXB |
Thanks mucho, mucho Mackay !!!  Kinger, 1st tire was a nail, 2nd tire appeared to be glass, and then 3rd I guess the seal ??? But anyway, appears to be fixed !!! I do remember your frustration !! Makes me wonder now since all three happened to go flat in the garage, but I don't care as long as I can finally ride !!!!  CJ | ||
| Fiery_xb |
CJ, YOU GOIN TO KELLI'S TONIGHT? | ||
| Steve_mackay |
CJ, if you have something to do tonight, we can do the tire thingy on Thursday or Friday evening also... | ||
| CJXB |
I'm going home, I'm sure I have to work late so should be home around 7:00 hopefully, sorry fiery !! Just give me a call Mackay !! Tell everyone tonight hello for me fiery !! CJ | ||
| Hellion_hb |
Hey CJ...We missed you last night; it was fun! I think I'm going to be hosting a party here in a few weeks for a mini-bachelorette party, so maybe you can come to that one Steve, do you think Toni would be interested in coming to a "naughty" party?? | ||
| CJXB |
Hellion, I hated to miss it but had to work late, work is kicking my butt right now !!  Hopefully it will be better in time for your's !! CJ | ||
| Whatever |
As far as the crud run... I will be moving (upstairs)that Saturday and so will my friend Rich/ the homeowner (downstairs)... BUT I think y'all should stop down here (near Camp Randall)... he doesn't know the power of the badweb insanity yet... I am sure any out of towners can camp in his back yard... btw was out on J K and P Sunday night and went through Pine Bluff... sweet (Message edited by Whatever on April 20, 2005) | ||

Charlotte, hit JG thats a pretty cool road. Takes you past Tyrol Basin ski hill & little Norway. Plus what the hell is the name of the road running right thru the middle of the UW campus that has a couple of nasty little hairpin turns? I rode it monday night but found it totally by accident. | ||
| Mikej |
Where is Camp Randall at? Dyna, Have you learned how the locals pronounce your new town's name yet? We did. | ||
| Buells Rule! (Dyna in disguise) |
Yep I have been corrected numerous times, its not pronounced like Rio in Brazil but rather like rye-o. I prefer it the other way though. | ||
| Buells Rule! (Dyna in disguise) |
Camp Randall is on the southwest side of town. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
CJ, your tire has held air for 4 whole days now!!! I'll give ya a call this evening, and we'll work summthin' out for tonight to install it. | ||
| CJXB |
Mackay, very cool !!! I was gonna push the bike off a cliff, luckily it was too hard to push without the back tire on it !! Anyone that says Bueller's don't Rock, I'll kick their ever lovin A%$, I've had tons of help with my tire issue !!! Thanks All !! | ||
| Whatever |
Camp Randall is the stadium at the UW Madison Campus... if you don't know where it is you are not a good Badger... hee hee hee. We are actually right on top of campus near Park and Regent streets. Observatory is the street that twists behind the Helen C White library up to the UW Observatory. There used to be a ski jump there onto my dad said he went down when he was in college... it landed on Lake Mendota by the Union Terrace. | ||

Steve...You amaze me. You know perfectly well that everything, regardless of the problem, always works in the shop. Hopefully, CJ's tire will be the exception and work on the road as well.  |
