jacobhawkins Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Hey everybody, some OR folks are coming to Columbus for the AIMExpo and Katie and I are opening up our place as a spot to hang after the show this coming Saturday. If you're on OR, you're likely not a dick, so come on over even if you're not going to the show. More the merrier. We have 2 acres about 10 minutes from the convention center, space for plenty of bikes/cars, a big fire pit, grill, motorcycle garage with a beer fridge. 2 acres, so there is plenty of space to camp or a cheap Uber ride to a hotel. Neighbors are very cool, they are more into hot rods, so no worries about noise late at night. If you post up if you'll be coming over, I'll make sure to get some beer that doesn't suck and some stuff to throw on the grill. 6ish to get things going? My house is here. We just got it, so below are some pics when it was a little more of disaster, but you get the idea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustinNck1 Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 I may be in for this. Might be a good time to test my camping gear coming in tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 The driveway is easy to miss, it comes up fast right over the hill. Jacob and Katie (though from what Jacob said, mostly Katie) found a great spot right in the middle of Columbus. You'd never know you weren't out in the country looking around in their back yard.

Yours if you want them. I am looking at "logistics" at home to see if I can make this happen. Not for the fjr cases just to meet and greet you guys for being good people More than likely I won't be able to make it since it gets dark so fast and I have to be back home Saturday itself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekClouser Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 So my plan is to leave Saturday morning from Toledo and arrive at Iron Pony. Do the Iron Pony/SubD Meetup thing to AimExpo. Check out AimExpo and then after is completely open. Not sure if I plan to stay the night and go back on Sunday or ride back Saturday. Either way I'll be coming down from Toledo with about 7 others so not sure what our afterward plan is. I'll let you know more as I know more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustinNck1 Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'm still trying to decide what I wanna do Saturday.

My tire changer is not available (bolted to floor of friends house who is away for a few weeks) you happen to have this ability in your garage? if so could I haul a pair of tires down on the back of the DR and swap them there? bike has ancient shitty conti road tires about gone. Putting on 50/50 knobbies. With tubes. Can bring spare tubes in case sorry if imposing on better news, luggage racks fit perfectly Tires have been changed there. @what has some tools, I have some tools. If he's coming over, I think he's planning on it, we could get new rubber on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobhawkins Posted September 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) You have spools? Been thinking of getting another stand for the Ducati anyway and that doesn't have spools. I'll check the pin size for the front. Or we can put it on the milk crate I use for my xr if we can't make my front stand work. Edited September 22, 2017 by jacobhawkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) You welcome to stop by my place tomorrow morning too @Danimal to change tires. I don't have stands but we can hang it from the rafters that's what I did with a friends Daytona . I have a no-mar changer now.

Blitz Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 I have stuff going on Saturday evening, but may be able to make this. We should put together a Sunday ride though, if enough guys are consolidated in one place in Columbus.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 So how many people are for sure in for a get-together at Jacob's place tomorrow so he doesn't go through the trouble/expense of setting stuff up only for 90% of the people posting here to no-show?
