Successful Wrench Day!

The 1st RCMP wrenching day was a huge success. We had lots of bikes and it was really fun.

Here's some of the bikes that came out.

The Jawa that I've had sitting in my house all winter after it sat outside getting snowed on for years.

When we finally unclogged the petcock this is the nastiness that came spurting out of the tank. It's about 8 years worth of old gas, rain and dead bugs. Pretty gross. Darcy, Bill and Brent got it running though and it's actually running really, really well!

Julie and Zak's uber cute matching orange Mobys. (and Ilya working on his Sachs).

All in all it was loads of fun and I'm glad we did it. Super huge thanks to everyone that helped out with my Jawa, especially Darcy. And I can't wait until we do this again (still don't know what's wrong with the stupid HS50..............hint, hint!). I love having a moped club. It's seriously, like, the best thing ever.

    Are you kidding...let's see..ok got it,"I've lost that helmet hair look that I love soooo much". See, any excuse for a ride!

    How's this one for the faithful...I'm sure that God, Jesus, Allah, Buddha (please insert any that I might have missed)would approve of us getting together to ride and celebrate the great outdoors that he, she, them, have created! Happy Easter.

    In other words...Sunday...I'm there!

    Hey Lindsay...

    I had a great time wrenching day, but i'm not sure the job is done. How's your coke problem? Did everything work? It looks as if you have a couple of issues here, and if you want to get some Kreem, and get tanked, I'd be more than happy to help!

    Lets talk.

    How about a Ride AND a Wrench? Might I suggest we meet at Lindsay's (if ya don't mind girl) then I can lead a tour through Rosedale. Beautiful homes and some amazing parks! We can do some wrenching either at my place or one of the parks. So whatchya all think?

    Darcy.

    Your welcome Julie, I had forgotten about Easter dinner. I guess everybody will be departing to their respective family gatherings late afternoon, myself included.

    Paul, I will bring the hardware you need for your ped. Chao for now!

    i'm good for sunday if you guys still wanna do it. the usual; not before three:) but it's supposed to be a really nice day as far as i know. so you wanna have a little bit of a wrench and then a ride? gonna see if i can ride the jawa, that would be cool (being as i still haven't even picked up the garelli).
