Balls Hot Tech Day

Post by Rhino » Tue Aug 05, 2014 8:53 am

This Saturday 8/9 I'll be hosting a "Balls Hot Tech Day" at my house. We're going to farkle up Will's future Versys, and I figure the more the merrier.

If you want to come by and help, just hang out, or do some work on your bike with my tools, come on by. Going to get rocking in the morning because my garage door faces west--it'll be hot in the afternoon, over 100F. Will is going to try to get a portable A/C, but I make no promises.

If a fair number of folks plan to show, I'll BBQ for lunch. Please post up if you plan to come, I'll PM you my address.

My SV is going on the dyno that day, but I'll try to stop by on my way back. You may want to pm me your address again, I only vaguely remember how to get there.

Curious, do you have a chain tool?

I do but you'd have to come get it, not ready to be out in the heat

Ok, I highly doubt I'll get a new chain by then, but that would be nice

Polo, don't listen to Litercouch Miles. He is just trying to pass the baton, and we're not quite ready for him to do that yet. :D

I don't know about the name change (it is catchy), but he most definitely should change his avatar...the one of him lounging on the couch should work just fine.

I saw the old loveseat, it's in good shape.

And the Litercouch really is quite nice.
