Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow.  However, I intend to steal away for at least an hour.   

Next weekend can work for me.   

Man, I'm so jealous of you guys.  I was born and raised in St. Louis and never even THOUGHT to get a bike.  Now that I'm in the market to get a bike (next season) I live in daggone Chicagoland!  Not a bad place or anything but I'd feel a lot more comfortable riding around someplace I know (like St. Louis).  Just thought I'd let y'all know how lucky you are to have fellow GS riders.  Anyway, have fun and ride safe guys. 

I've seen some posts about Chicago rides dude , you should be able to find a few people to ride with up there ... you'll just be the only one there that knows how much better it is down here 

BTW Geep , Atkins ... you guys ready to go again in the next couple weeks ?

What are you doing tomorrow?   

Next weekend, maybe.

Week after next, probably not.

If you're serious about tomorrow I can fit in a couple hours ... I have a bunch of parts for my GS i've been wanting to put on , but I can wait a while if ya wanna ride some . If you happened to want to help , i'd pay ya for your expertise too  Still have my number ?

Yeah, I can probably steal away part of the day.  I may give you a call in the morning if I can shuffle some stuff.  Say 9am or so?

Sounds good . I have my new fork brace "kinda" installed (was afraid to take the front tire off by myself lol ... the new brace covers my old bent up one 'cause I couldn't get the backing nuts loose from the fender) . I still have my new fork springs to install , but my buddy is supposed to help me with those sunday (he has my new seals anyway) , as well as my Clubman bars , Buell headlights , and new brake pads . If you could help me with the front tire removal/fork brace install & if we could change the front pads while we were working up there anyway , that'd be cool 
I'm up for just riding though if you're on a limited amount of time ... like my wife says , I'm easy 

I'll talk to you in the morning dude
