Tressa: G'night Roy May 13, 2013 20:02:49 GMT -6
bandito2: Nope I'm still here but this thing is not updating like it says it is. Have to refresh every now and then. May 13, 2013 20:03:43 GMT -6
Tressa: mostly updating for me, but I did miss one of Roy's posts until later May 13, 2013 20:04:48 GMT -6
Tressa: do you use the sound? Or should I just get rid of it? It may be causing the problem with updating May 13, 2013 20:06:07 GMT -6
bandito2: I had the sound off on the computer.. Duh, no wonder I wasn't hearing anything even though the sound button is set to on. May 13, 2013 20:08:40 GMT -6
bandito2: I keep thinking.... only 4 months... I wished time would slow and let summer hang around longer. It always seems to go away too fast. May 13, 2013 20:13:03 GMT -6
Tressa: I look forward to summer, then there are so many chores to do when it does get warm, we still don't get to ride as much as we think we will when planning during the winter. May 13, 2013 20:15:16 GMT -6
bandito2: True May 13, 2013 20:15:52 GMT -6
Tressa: truck goes into the shop tomorrow afternoon, so that's another day we won't be riding May 13, 2013 20:17:09 GMT -6
Tressa: at least not an all-day ride May 13, 2013 20:17:31 GMT -6
bandito2: I got a few more parts that I need to make to get my streamliner on the road. Waiting on some epoxy to get more done. It is supposed to be here tomorrow. May 13, 2013 20:19:22 GMT -6
bandito2: Well, think I'm going to hit the sack soon. Talk to you later .. Good night. May 13, 2013 20:20:49 GMT -6
Tressa: I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of it once you get it finished. May 13, 2013 20:20:58 GMT -6
Tressa: K, g'night. May 13, 2013 20:21:13 GMT -6
Smorkle: Rode the scoot to work this morning with no issues. Rode home this afternoon and the temp had risen from 67 in the morning to 92 in the afternoon. Got about a half mile from the house and the bead separated off the rear rim. May 14, 2013 19:55:38 GMT -6
Smorkle: Walked home and got the wife and trailer. We loaded it up and took it home. Tried to put the tire back on but the bead was messed up but got it aired up enough to roll it off the trailer and put it back in the garage. May 14, 2013 19:57:52 GMT -6 *
Smorkle: Almost into the garage the bead separated again so on it's center stand it sits until I get a new tire. May 14, 2013 20:06:27 GMT -6
Tressa: Glad the sudden flat didn't cause any injuries (at least none you mentioned). Any idea what caused the separation? Defective tire or wheel? May 14, 2013 20:46:01 GMT -6
Smorkle: My best guess is that the 35° change in temperature yesterday heated the air too rapidly in the tire and it might have been slightly over inflated. No injuries. I never lost control. May 15, 2013 16:19:08 GMT -6
gyro: Will there be vendors at this year's STO? I read on another forum that STO has had vendors at previous events. May 18, 2013 9:30:12 GMT -6
