Great event! It was just awesome to meet everyone on the team! Six strangers with only this forum (and an Alta) in common, coming together to get this event done is quite an accomplishment! Having nearly no experience with the event, totals noobs really, there is SO MUCH to learn on how to do...

@QuinnsMom please check your PMs and call me if you can. I'm not too far and can help.

Hi Neighbor! (isn't that Narragansett's beer slogan?)

Ah, we're making neighbors already!

Yes, repairing them needs to be a priority. Oh, this isn't my bike. I fixed it for a local Alta owner just to be a nice guy. I didn't imagine it would take nearly two months!

Here's the update: I eventually sourced a replacement BCU/lid assembly from a former Code 36 bike. It took WAY longer to get in my hands than I ever thought it would. The fact is that the parts seem to be out there but people are reluctant to sell them. I installed the replacement BCU/lid...

Yup! I need a new one, too. Going to get a 3L version this time. I need the additional pockets!

Hahahaha, well, the cooler car lives in the car trailer........ but under that cover is my first car, a 1970 MG Midget with wire wheels. My grandfather gave me the car in 1983, he was given the car by his neighbor who did some SCCA racing with it. The neighbor "lightened" the car up for...

And somehow my Camelbak has sprung a leak! Honestly, how does that even happen? It lives in a closet 99% of the time.

And the prep has officially started

I have space on my bus. It's ain't luxurious but it's a bunk to sleep in! No AC tho, the generator was removed to use for the race.

I think we should start off with each rider doing just one lap. This way each person can see what they have left for battery after one lap, gets to see the course, shakes down the bike, etc., we can get a sense for each member's speed, etc. After each person has had their first run, we'll know...

Dawn dish soap and water. No tools needed to get the Tubliss over the rim, did by hand. The tire was no issue either. No leaks at all, holds pressure, well, indefinitely.

Soap and water! 20/80 ratio. Tubliss is far easier with soap and water!

Yes, I have plenty of it.

The shower I have is, well, slides into the rear trailer hitch on the bus. Hot water, good pressure, but open to everyone to see! Underwear is recommended, but hell, if you're dirty or tired enough, a hot or cold shower any way you can get it feels great!

AOF decals, pls. Thanks!

Done! I am now officially a AMA member!

Does anyone in our group need a data port cable? I'll make them up if that's the case

I have a beat up one too, no sides to it.
