Default Time to visit WCW 2010?

New bike = need for someone to help set-up the suspension. Anyone interested in a ride up to WCW on Sat 4/10 from the Jackson, NJ area?

Kevin, Come on over. I'll set your bike up. I use the same technique for baseline setup as Ron. Unless your just looking for an excuse to ride to WCW.

thanks ralph! i'll watch the weather and give you a call first. the new bike is a blast to ride but may be set-up a little firm for my weight.
