Looks like I won't be able to make Granville's again but I've got the day off the following Monday for Columbus Day. Anyone else available? Taskers, Cove, whatever...

Interesting, easy reading, article on Columbus (I should probably say that by "easy" I don't mean it's a particularly nice article, it's just that it's not a scholarly/boring work - lots of nasty stuff in the article):

There is a distinct probability I could ride that day. :deal: I'd prefer the cove but will go with the crowd.

Shoot, next time!

Looks like we could have a good group... Very cool. Only vote so far is for the cove so let's do that.

The only bike redy to ride is my YZ and it has no spark arrestor. izzat kosher at The Cove? It does have a good recently packed silencer and isn't loud compared to four strokes.

It would probably be a good idea to have a spark arrestor for your bike in general. But I wouldn't worry too much about it at the Cove.

I work on the 9th, trying for OT on the 10th. If I don't get hired, I'll join you guys. I only live 20 minutes away so throwing the bike on the trailer when I get home that morning (assuming I'm not working) and running over isn't a big deal.

Been looking for one for a 1980 YZ465 with a DG silencer for a couple years. Know where one is?
