Michael and I have just ordered a table lift to put the bikes up on, so
we can work without straining our backs. It needs proper breaking in.
And the International Motorcycle Show will be in Novi, Michigan, the
weekend of Jan 2-4.
So, we'd like to invite any interested 'maggots to come on over, the weekend of Jan 2-4. We'll work on bikes, and go to the show. He's got a V65 Sabre that needs the usual stuff - carbs, maybe a valve adjustment, etc. We know the drill here; we'll order the usual parts so they'll be ready to go. And if we get bored with working on Sabres, we'll work on the VFR or the V-Strom or one of the TDMs. After all what's the point of having a fancy lift table if you don't run it up and down to switch bikes a few times? People who have been here in the last couple of years know we have a heated, well-lit garage, lots of tools, and that I always buy plenty of beer. We'll do our best to fatten you up in something approximating the style 'maggots have become accustomed to. We have beds enough for a few visitors, floor space for more, and nearby motels for the less parsimonious. So, save the dates. Weekend of Jan 2-4, Ypsilanti MI. -- Katherine Becker |

Come meet the Greenville contingent of maggots at this
year's Kick off the New Year BBQ & Wrenchfest, or the
KOTNYBB&W for short.
Format will be typical wrenchfest fare. Bring 'em, work on 'em and get some help from people that have done it before (hopefully). A large, indoor, heated, well-lit, shop with good tunes (aka the man-cave) will be provided. Stuff like work benches, Steeeeeeeve's 'spensive high-zoot NoMar tire changing machine and wheel balancer, motorcycle jacks, compressor, and assorted tools will be available. The days are short this time of year and we'll be drinking beer (except for Ryder if he shows, he's more of a tequila guy and KB leans towards soft drinks, but not as much as she used to), so bedrooms and plenty of floor space are also available, with the comfiest beds going to a complicated formula involving age, distance traveled, how much we like you and whether or not you piss off The Goddess, who will be in attendance this year. There's also a big hot-tub for soaking away those wrenched wrenching elbows afterwards, so bring those suits if you embarass easily, although last year it was almost too warm out to use it (I just threw this in to piss off Zim-Bob). Wrenching will start in earnest Saturday morning, but brew sampling, tire-sniffing and maggot greeting can start Friday afternoon or early evening. We'll wrap up any loose ends and shoo everybody off Sunday morning. This year we'll do something different, round up the troops on Saturday afternoon and head for the fantabulous Cycle World International Motorcycle Show which, conveniently enough, is just a pleasant 15 minute ride down the tree-lined streets. Following that, the troops will converge at Barley's Taproom & Grille, known for miles around as the happening place for flying-saucer sized gourmet pizzas and 64 fine micro-brewed beers on tap (along with a couple hundred more varieties in bottles). What is it: KOTNYBB&W Where is it: big red mo's in Greenville, SC When is it: 20-22 Feb. 2009 Interested? Contact me directly, Big Red Mo, with KOTNYBB&W in the subject line, for maps and directions. |

March 20/21/22 Location: 142 Wedgewood Drive, Gibsonia PA 15044
Jean has a large attached heated 2.5 car garage, a couple extra beds, couches and enough floor space for any number of people. Gibsonia is very close to the Pennsylvania turnpike, making getting there a no-brainer. If you decide to fly in, we'll be happy to pick you up at Pittsburgh International. The subject bike for this weekend will be Jed Gregory's 91 ST1100. We'll be doing a valve adjustment, timing belt, clutch, and steering bearings. The usual WMC itinerary will be followed: arrive Friday afternoon/evening and rub elbows with the usual suspects while enjoying free food and booze. Dive into wrenching Saturday after breakfast and either learn something, help out, or stand back and laugh at the shenanigans around you. Jean plans to pull out all the stops making Saturday's dinner, so bring an appetite. Sunday we'll clean up any loose ends from Saturday's wrenching, if any exist. Hit me offlist, David Ryder, for any further details. |

Breakfast and dinner will be provided Friday & Saturday, yer own yer own fer lunch (ya' should be out riding, anyway). Pulled pork bb-q for dinner on Saturday, who knows what I'll come up with for the rest of the time... I do have 6 months to plan. Free range style camping available, ping Lori if you'd like a bunk. Most of the beds are spoken for already, but we can put you on a waiting list or see if the cabin-holders would mind squeezing you in with them. We're also hoping to have two more cabins some time next spring, so if you're on the waiting list and those get put in before the SME, guess who gets called first? :o) If you don't want to chance having a bed upon which to lay your weary head, other places to stay can be found at http://www.huntslodge.com/Local_Accommodations.html.
