    Need towing help!!

    SO I'm trying to buy Tsorfas's ZX6 track bike.
    He lives in Shrewsbury, MA and I'm in Northern Vermont.

    We (mostly me) were wondering if anyone could help us out with towing the trailer and bike and parts to meet me somewhere along Rt89 in NH.

    I was hoping to do this either Wednesday or Thursday evening this week. I'm busy Friday/Saturday, but I could potentially do Sunday as well.
    Basically I want the bike a week or two before the Tony's May 21st day.

    Can ANYONE help?!?

    That was a joke right? Remember, send him the money first.

    I could help, but Tsorfas a dick.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    The bike comes with a trailer. So literally all I need is the tow. And of course I'll pitch in for some of the flammable stuff

    Re: Need towing help!!

    That helps cuz my trailer isn't amongst the smallest of trailers, Like I said if you need it I'm around most of Sunday. If you want to get a hold of me and give me the details send me an email ff.hagopian@yahoo.com or my cell if it is safe to past on this site.

    If he is going to the BOMO day on the 14th I could toss it in the back of my truck... can't do much about the trailer though. If you don't want it maybe you could sell it to Hobbs cheap.

    Re: Need towing help!!

    I realize this isn't what you want, but as a possible last resort...

    I could go get it the 19th or 20th. Unfortunately I'm slammed between now and this Saturday, and am flying out of the country Saturday. I could possibly get it Friday, the 18th as well, as that when i fly in.

    I live about 15 minutes from the track, so could park it for whatever time is needed and you could come by whenever you were available.

    Far from ideal, but you could have it for TTD if there are no other options.

    Re: Need towing help!!

    This could work... I was considering traveling to white river junction to meet Andy K for my bike lift... How far down 89 did you want to go?

    Tsorfas doesn't have any way to move the trailer himself. This would work great but idk how he'd get the bike to the track.........Or how I'd sell the trailer.

    My original plan was to try and meet someone halfway between me and Tsorfas.....which I figured was like Exit 10 on 89 in NH. If Andy K could bring the trailer we could kill two birds with one stone.

    Yes I've had a few drinks but have no idea what you are looking for. What it's the bike and trailer pick up location and delivery location.

    @Big$$$$ -
    Pick up a bike and trailer in Shrewsbury MA (I assume all the stuff to keep the bike on the trailer is included).
    Deliver said bike and trailer to some yet to be determined location along NH I89. Exact delivery location sounds negotiable.

    Re: Need towing help!!

    If you can pick the Bike and trailer up somewhere of RT 89 why dont you just pick it up in Shrewsbury?

    Seems pretty easy.

    That would be an 8 hour round trip, I'm trying to avoid it if I can.

    If I had a trailer hitch on my car, I'd tow it all the way up for you... Spring for a hitch kit and I'll do it

    Re: Need towing help!!

    Would anyone going to the BOMO day be able to pick the bike up in shrewsbury? Then give it to Doc to bring up here? Tsorfas is checking with who he's riding with but if they don't have room can anyone else do it??

    Re: Need towing help!!

    I do think this is silly,

    You need to ask for someone who makes the trip anyway, and you sweeten the deal

    You might forward your case if you describe the trailer, trailer weight, size of ball needed.

    This thread was hilarious. If you're willing to pay someone for gas, why not just pay yourself and go get it?
