Yes I'll have the coffee ready

What day you gonna be there?

Ron, you just saying that because it's true

Paul, this usually a small group of folks, and is a very laid back get together we talk about where we are going to ride and go. We welcome everyone no matter what you ride. Trina and I will be camped out at Vogel State park.

I hate to see this kind of talk, but I know one day it will happen but not today

Heck I'm over half way packed, if it wasn't for doctor appointments my old self would go early 🤣

Both replies are good options, Paul I have read about the bootable usb drive but have not thought about the second hard drive idea, I have a few old hard drives laying around.

Ok, trying to decide what to do I have three computers that I use although two are rarely used. One is W-11 and the other two are W-10 and are not capable of being upgraded they are like me just to old I guess. Never tried Linux and after looking into it there are several to choose from so what are my options Linux, new computer or disconnect the two W-10's from the internet. The end of 10 is coming

Congratulations

since you have already had back surgery look close at independent suspension IRS, and by the way the venture makes an awesome trike.

I'm sorry to hear about you laying the bike down but glad you are alright. This is why we should post things it is like a record of what we have done to the bike.

I got that ride in before the mess got here and then I put all the vehicles in the shop just in case.

Good idea I think I will go for a ride

Atta boy Ronnie, but this may turn into a discussion. recently I hear people talk about parking their bikes in gear and also when they haul them do they prefer in gear or neutral. I always park in gear except in my shop I park in neutral because sometimes I will roll the bike to get something from behind it and I always haul the bike in gear, if the straps are right it shouldn't matter but if a strap fails the bike is not rolling all over the trailer.

just got back from trying out the camper, and putting 500 miles on the bike. went down to Florida and told my brother that lives there to led us, he did and most of it was in Alabama. Trina and I did ride down to Flora-Bama had a good time but I'm ready for Vogel.

we may ride over while we are at Maggie Valley and see how it looks.

Glad to hear that

Joe, how did you all those young folks to stand still long enough to snap that picture?

That's a nice one congrats

hey Joe that's right up there with blinker fluid 🙃

It's that time of year, changed the engine oil and oil filter, replaced the brake fluid the water content was not bad but I changed it out and bleed the brakes. After a test ride the rear brakes are better than have been since I've had the bike.

Hope you had a swell B'day

Have you changed the oil in the compressor yet? hopefully it was just low and not out of oil. site glasses are notorius for leaking oil so after cleaning the area around the site glass keep an eye on it. Hopefully you have great find.

Welcome to Venture Riders and sounds like you have gotten yourself a project.
