East Coast Spring Rally Attendance?

[Bill_Rockoff]

Andrew & I made it home.  105 south to Linville, BRP to 25, we saw an FJ and a Vstrom headed north.  Got off the BRP and had lunch near Hendersonville, then superslab all the way home.  (25 to I-85 to 400.)  Hot - 93 today. 

I unloaded the bikes, he's asleep already.

It was great to see all of you again, and thanks for sharing cabins, coffee, cold drinks, and mountain pies.

Just got home.  The rehab-d water pump held fine and I had no problems.   

Thanks again to Carey, Calvin and Frank for the picnic bench overhaul on the pump.

Battery got a bit wonky at one stop and had to bump start it. 

Dan and I rode the parkway up to Mabry Mill and then some really nice back roads in VA.  Hit traffic on 95 north of Richmond but was fine as I got off the slab in about ten miles.

It was great to finally get back to a rally and had a blast.  Hope its not another five years until I get back down again.

Jeff and I and the rally dawg is still on the road. We just crossed into FL so we are about 2-3 hrs from home still. The truck's overdrive light is flashing on the gear shift knob so that will have to be checked out and fixed pronto!

It was GREAT seeing everyone after the long winter. Thank goodness for my FJ brothers who knows when I ain't "happy" and my FJ ain't happy! Frank, Calvin and Jeff H took the carbs apart and cleaned them. Now my FJ is much happier once again! Which makes me happy too.

Thanks to all for another (very!) successful ECSR!

Pics to follow (after a nap).

Just went through my carbs today and found some jet's that were just about clogged.I know the bad feeling when the carbs aint happy and the good feeling when you fix a problem.Got mine done just in time to get a 45 min ride in before the storm hit.
Sounds like every one had a good time

Definitely an "interesting" evolution.

Just got parts on order from Zanotti's.  The mechanical seal is $19. (Woody's wanted $29).  Also ordered o-rings, as well as cam chain tensioner, rear pads, crush washers, etc.

Thanks again!
