I went with the wife and son and i have to say I want to go again.

Freak and I were thinking we could make it a group ride on a saturday and then stop in at the Museum to see the exhibit.

Let's nail down a Saturday in this thread and then start a Who's in list.

Definitely a good exhibit, and anyone who hasn't seen it yet should go.

I'm game to go when I get back and get the bike back on the road

Well, I've already seen it. I might tag along depending on when you guys arrange it, but I'm going to be busy for the rest of the summer. So we'll see.

How about Sat. August 1st?

[BlueEyes]

I would like to go but 1 August is a drill weekend (remember those, Freak?)

[Jaynnus]

I wanna go....

Def can't make it if it is the next 2 Saturdays.

Nope!

Hows about the Sat after that?

You gonna come all the way up here? SWEET!

[Jaynnus]

yup, now where are those leather cat pants

[NobodySpecific]

When will this be?

Pfft, hell if I know. I'm should be back in Vermont in time for bike night next week (no promises) but the bike won't be ready. I need to get the bike running (could be a simple fluid drain and refill, might need a whole tear down) and re-registered, and I don't want to register it until I have an apartment, but if it isn't back on the road by August 1st please take me out back and put me down Lassie style (I know one of you sick bastards is gonna twist that one around).

[Slyder]

I'm free whenever for the most part and what I saw about it on the news looked pretty slick. Pick a day. Pray for sun

How did you prep it prior to storage? Assuming you put stabilizer in the fuel, I very much doubt it'll need a full tear down. Might well fire right up with a freshly-charged battery.

If you didn't put fuel stabilizer in, you could be in for a fantastic pain in the ass.

Let me know if you need a hand with the bike resurrection.

I put stabil in, but it was the red stuff, not the green stuff so I'm a bit nervous. The battery was about 2 months old, but I had no way to hook it up to the tender so I'm guessing it's gone. I'm gonna try to charge it and see if I can bring it back to life. I've got my fingers crossed that it'll work with just new gas (anybody got a gas can I can borrow?) and an oil change.

[markbvt]

Did you run the stabilized gas through the fuel system? If so I think you'll be fine. As for the battery, just throw it on a charger and it'll probably be fine as well.

And yes, I have a gas can.

[Doc]

Did the battery freeze?

Back on Topic.
Lets shoot for Saturday, August 8th...some sort of pre-show ride + lunch, then hit the Museum round 1ish...? I used to work there, so Ill see about getting 50% off/person.

[Doc]

How about the 25th around noon? I am hearing that they are having a a Freestyle event.

[Slyder]

Fiddy bones? I ain't got that kinda scratch

Unless it includes free magic hat. At least one free pint.

25th looks good I think. Entertainment too

[Doc]

Freak said he might get 50% off.

(I thought $50 was a little high as well)

50% off admission, not event pricing, and I'll probly have to be with the group to get a discount.

[markbvt]

Doesn't everyone with a Vermont license get 50% off admission?

It looks that way.....but with the stunting event it looked as if they were charging $50 per adult regardless of where they are from. I noticed that too.

Maybe its a typo on the webpage? Seems like a steep increase. $10 for a VT res, $20 for non resident, then 30-40 increase for the 25th
