Okay, so what was the verdict on the waterlogged leather suit? Did anyone actually confirm that cows get loose skin after stampeding in a rainstorm? Inquiring minds want to know.... Also, I had a great time hanging out with everyone. Good times.

Problem solved!

Febreze???

I love watching the coverage on TV, I can only imagine being there in person... I love the sound of that Norton. And the sidecar racing. I know last year they had a IOMTT Snapchat that I was slightly obsessed with but I couldn't find it this year... I hope to make it there one day to witness it in person. It's definitely a bucket list trip for me.

I'm getting new tires installed tonight

It's like the servers know I'm on vacation next week... neither remote desktop is fully functional at the moment... I give up

When you forget that your office closes early on Fridays and call your boss about a question and he asks what the heck you're doing still working... lol

I don't think it's the same one, this one is in Roscoe, NY. It's called Dundas Castle.

Breezewood is one of the largest trucking interchanges, if not the largest, in the US. All the truck traffic combined with high winds and twisty highways was a scary combination, especially when you're trying to do 75-80mph... it was nuts.

So I went back to this Narrowsburg, NY again this year - 4 states and 1,093 miles by the time I got home. It was a great time - there were 6 of us that made the trip from Ohio. I hadn't met the ladies I rode with until we all met up in PA. We got rained on, spent a few hours in a quarter car wash hiding from the rain, explored a haunted castle, drank free beer and stunk up a hotel room the first night will all our wet gear. I learned that riding west out of Breezewood, PA is probably the windiest area, clogged with truck traffic and twisty highways that I've ever seen - it was so stressful, but I survived. And I rode thru a tunnel for the first time too. I posted a bunch of pictures on Instagram if you want to check them out. I know you're all super jelly that you don't have a vagina so you can't attend this annual camping event. LOL

The manager of the Columbus store is Taylor, she was at the Cleveland/North Olmsted Cycle Gear previously. She's awesome and not just because we're friends. :)

And that's mostly why I don't have any friends anymore.

I had a friend that took her. Without getting into the story, I'm done helping family out. It's sad when people that are your own blood shit on you without a second thought. ?

I'm cancelling, too cold for me. Have a safe ride.

Brake issue resolved. ?? I can meet at either spot, but I'm thinking meeting at the Shell station would be easier so I'll see you there.

Idk what I'm doing yet - I've got less than 2 weeks until my trip to NY and I need to resolve the rear brake issue stat. Fingers crossed that it gets figured out and that the parade is back on AND that I can make it so I can get some riding in before my trip... good times... lol

Maybe but it's not constantly dragging, just sometimes. Researching it online turned up that there might be more air in the system that needs to come out. I'm gonna see if my resident mechanic has time to look at it, if not I'll be asking for help from you or someone here...

Yeah - we bled it after reinstalling the top off/overflow/fluid measuring container because it was relocated and needed a longer tub to feed the master cylinder, but it's dragging now and there's no way I can ride it anywhere atm... yippee... lol

Thanks!!!!! I have stuff going on tonight, but maybe tomorrow if Kevin doesn't have time to help me.

Huh, then I have no fricken idea... stupid sadomasochists!

Well it looks like my rear brake needs to be bled (again) because it's acting up. I'm a strong maybe pending fixing the brake issue... ?

Isn't it because they (the sadomasochists) don't expect you to have multiples of the same tool? That's what a little bird told me the other day...

Okay, I'm in for the Parade of Hate Donut Express since Dunkin Donuts is right down Broadview Rd from me. That's much easier than dragging my ass to meet in Wooster at 8am...

I'd like to go, will there be a donut express @Tonik or if not could I maybe tag along with @whaler??
