Tonik Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) Leaving the Dunkin Donuts on Pleasant Valley Rd in Seven Hills at 8AM. Down 77, then 21 through Massilon because Akron blows dead goats. Then back on 77 until just past Cambridge where we will hit back roads to the meet up spot. I will stop along the way to pick anyone up. Edited May 14, 2018 by Tonik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at your sexy ass and smelling wonderful donuts all the way. Or. Sweet twisties and seeing Derek's come hither smile at every stop. Good thing I don't have that decision to make. Good plan bringing Tracy along I'm sure the chics will dig that. Edited May 14, 2018 by 2talltim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tall_tracy Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Rear brake? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tall_tracy Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 1 minute ago, what said: Rear brake? 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your linkage on your new rearset isn't set correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your linkage on your new rearset isn't set correctly. 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Air in the line would make the brake spongey and not very functional. It shouldn't make it drag unless theres some weird ABS shenanigans at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekClouser Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Postponed to Sunday, May 20, 2018 due to weather. Hope the hate parade can still attend! See you guys Sunday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted May 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Hate parade is canceled, I can't do Sunday. Derkek sucks and I hate him but he made the right call on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted May 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 And I might be back in, will know for sure when I get home tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tall_tracy Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonik Posted May 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 I am in for sure, but details are changing a tiny bit. I will post that tomorrow, going to bed. I just finished a marathon Destiny 2 session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted May 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 @Danimal @tall_tracy @zx3vfr So here is the deal, we have two of the grandkids over Saturday night. Deb is going with me Sunday and we need to drop off the grandkids in Granger. So, we are leaving my house at 7:30 AM, me on the bike and Deb and the kids in her car. Head to Granger and drop the kids then across 18 to Fairlawn. So meet spots are my house kickstands up at 7:30 AM (which means you will go to Granger first too). PM me for the address, it's just a mile south of Dunkin. I will get the donuts ahead of time. Second meet spot is at I 77 (NOT 71) and 18. North east corner there is a Shell. Kickstands up there at 8:30. It's 158 miles to the Epic Ride, so one stop on the way for gas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can meet at either spot, but I'm thinking meeting at the Shell station would be easier so I'll see you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
