Join CA2Q at our October gathering on the 17th at Black Bear Dinner. See page 21 1 Chapter Director’s Corner Chapter Life is sure a great me, isn’t it? We are all having a lot of fun, aren’t we? We had a business mee ng last week to discuss the direc on of the chapter, and get feedback from the a endees of what they think is working right, and what they think is not working as well as it could be. So, there are some changes that will be implemented at the October Gathering as a direct result of the input received. A huge THANK YOU to Buddy, Rich and Linda for invi ng us to their house for a wonderful evening. One of the topics was planned succession of leadership within the Chapter. We are more than half way through our tenure as the CDs and plan to transi on to a new CD in January, 2017. The rest of the Chapter Opera ons Team is ready and willing to stay on with us through the end of 2016, so that is great. A detailed review of the GWRRA Officers Handbook indicates that there are two mandatory posi ons within a Chapter organiza on – the CD and the Treasurer. The only parameters are that the CD and the treasurer cannot be related and cannot live under the same roof. The other members of the Chapter Opera ons Team are the ACD, the MEC and the Educator. We have been a very ac ve CD team, much more so than many other CDs are. We ride to a lot of other chapter gatherings, rallies, consistent par cipants at the District and Region conven ons because we have met many fantas c people at these events and have developed some hopefully lifelong friendships at them. People we never would have met had it not been for GWRRA – including all of you! But, we are now ac vely looking for our successors. We want to provide a good turnover, with the transi on hopefully las ng a year with an ACD stepping up in January 2016. If you are interested, we will gladly talk to you individually to discuss the expecta ons of the ACD and the CD posi ons within the GWRRA Chapter Organiza on. At the Business Mee ng, Jim Smith indicated his intent to step down at the end of 2016, so that posi on will also be opening up. He is ready and willing to discuss the responsibili es of the Chapter Treasurer with you if you are interested in that role. Addi onally, the en re Chapter Opera ons Team requires reassignment upon transi on of the CD. Some will stay on, but others may open up. Without an ac ve group of volunteers, our posi on would be a lot harder. Thank you all for your support! As everyone is aware, we have passed the Autumnal Equinox, and the nights are now longer than the days. What does that mean to riding, besides ge ng cooler and (hopefully this year) rainier than recent months? It is impera ve that a full TCLOCS be performed to ensure that all of your lights are working properly. And, while you are at it, check the tread on your res, as the rain does make the roads slipperier than when they are dry. As the leaves fall off the trees, even when dry, they reduce the coefficient of fricon of the roadway, and can give some exci ng moments to your ride if you start to slide unexpectedly. So, slow down and ride safely as we ride into fall. But, with the passing of the Autumnal Equinox, CA2Q’s ride calendar is not slowing down. We have a full docket of rides planned for everyone to join and par cipate in, as well as the resump on of the Hiking Group to get out and stretch your legs with your extended family. Check out the calendar that Bill Androws keeps up to date on our webpages – a never ending challenge with a group as ac ve as we are. Come on out and join us at some of our ac vi es! We enjoy your comradery and friendship! Un l our re tracks cross again, Ride O en, Ride Safe, and keep the rubber side down! Your CDs, Don & Beth 2 District Director’s Message Ge ng Used To Change Is Never Easy Our latest District Rally was held last month over the Labor Day weekend and thanks to all of you that supported the event, it was a terrific success. Too many mes we have made the mistake of trying to thank every individual by name that went out of their way to help and have, inadvertently, omi ed someone so I would just like to thank everyone collec vely. For those of you new to GWRRA, pu ng on the District Rally is the largest single responsibility that your District Directors have as far as me commitment goes. It takes months of planning and prepara on and then seems the rally is over in the blink of an eye. This year’s rally was really bi ersweet for us as it was our third and final event and with Wing Ding having moved to the Labor Day weekend, it was the last me that we will be able to hold our event on that date. In order to survive, our organiza on needs to learn how to embrace change; but, unfortunately, change is the one thing we seem to find most difficult. It is interes ng that when we talk about change, our defenses immediately go up and we start to jus fy why we cannot tolerate an affront to the status quo. On the other hand, when we discuss the need for adapta on, everyone immediately understands the benefits. At the chapter level, we see change constantly as volunteers come and go and at the District and Region levels we see change at least every three years so that ideas and leadership do not become stale. These changes or adapta ons are necessary in order to keep things at the chapter level running as smoothly as possible. When it comes to the Na onal level, adap on becomes a way of life and they are faced with the ul matum of either adapt or perish. Na onal faces every problem that we experience at the Chapter level, except the repercussions are magnified exponen ally. If chapter membership is down by 5%, the reduc on is usually comprised of the members that were not ac vely par cipa ng in chapter life and the overall impact to the chapter is minimal. When the naonal membership drops by 5%, the resul ng fiscal impact is nearly a quarter of a million dollars in lost revenue to the organiza on. When viewed in this context, it is not only understandable, but it becomes glaringly necessary why Na onal has to make some decisions like moving Wing Ding to the Labor Day weekend; for if Na onal ceases to exist, so do our chapters. For decades, Wing Ding was held over the 4th of July holiday and used to regularly draw 20,000 to 40,000 a endees. This year’s a endance was in excess of 9,000 a endees and everyone I spoke to absolutely loved the event! Many years ago, California had more than 700 people at its District Rally; this year we had 225. Both Na onal and our District are facing the same problems: an aging demographic, increased compe on for the consumer’s recrea onal dollar, a strained economy, and a slowing of touring motorcycle sales. Na onal has adapted their Wing Ding for next year to fit a 3-day format and California will adapt to 2-day weekend in order to meet our members’ needs. While it will feel awkward being in Billings, Montana next year on Labor Day, we understand the need and applaud Na onal’s decision for as difficult as change is, the alterna ve of someday not having a thriving GWRRA is something we don’t ever want to get used to. Un l next month, ride well and ride o en. Vincent and Pamela Puterbaugh California District Directors 3 Chapter Educator’s Message Words of Wingdom Shocking Behavior The GL1800 rear suspension consists of a conven onal shock assembly mounted on a rising rate linkage. This shock is not adjustable for compression and rebound damping but preload is adjustable. As you may know, preload adjustment adds or subtracts compression to the spring to help compensate for variable loads. This is important because bo oming out your shock when you hit a large bump while leaned over in a corner can lead to a loss of control. On the GL1800 spring preload is accomplished by a collar at the top of the spring which is expanded hydraulically. There is a hydraulic pump consis ng of an electric motor connected to a worm gear which causes a piston to slide down a bore pushing hydraulic oil down a rubber hose to the preload collar. When you work the preload control you are changing the loca on of the piston in the bore which in turn expands or contracts the collar increasing or decreasing the pressure on the spring. Pictured here is the motor and piston assembly taken apart to show the piston bore. This system works well when it is new. Almost as soon as the preload indicator moved off of #1 you can hear the pitch of the electric motor change indica ng increasing pressure on the spring. There is a flaw in this design however. Owners find that the preload adjustment becomes less effec ve as their bikes age. The preload indicator reaches higher and higher numbers before it has any effect. My own 2010 doesn’t put pressure on the spring un l about #10 which means maybe half my preload adjustment is gone. What could be the problem here? The components do not appear to be leaking so where is the hydraulic oil going? The oil is going nowhere, it’s s ll there. If this is the case why then does the piston have to move further to accomplish the same result? The volume of the hydraulic system is increasing. How is this possible? The answer is that the rubber hose weakens over me allowing it to expand under pressure, effec vely increasing the volume of the system, in turn reducing the amount the collar can expand. The answer of course is to replace the hose. Think you can buy it from Honda though? You would be mistaken. As far as Honda in concerned the en re shock, hose and hydraulic pump assembly is nonserviceable and sells the whole thing for $$$. There is a be er solu on though. Wingstuff and others sell a braided steel replacement hose for about $60. The shock can be removed, the hose replaced and the system bled. I don’t know how much a shop charges to do this but it looks like it would take me about half a day. There are step by step instruc ons available on line on how to bleed the system. It doesn’t look too complicated. If your bike is older you might want to think about replacing that hose Ride Safe! Larry 4 Chapter MEC Message Get more out of your GWRRA Membership 5 Chapter COY Message Have you noticed the chill in the morning air? We can tell autumn is rapidly approaching but not quite here yet. Don’t put away your hot weather gear yet though; we are still dealing with some rather warm “Indian Summer” days. Susi and I are not really “hot weather” people so we are looking forward to cooler fall days where we can, with any luck, get in a few extra rides. Hopefully during one of those rides we will see some beautiful fall colors. It was a smaller September group gathering this month with no special guests or visitors. Before starting down the list with our agenda items there was a moment of silence for Rick Kagamaster, a very involved GWRRA member in CA1R and CA1Q who was tragically killed in an accident on an extended after chapter ride. After the moment of silence, Jerry McHugh was our attendance game winner in the amount of $45. Congratulations Jerry… and where are you taking us for ice cream? Not only did Bob Tobin pull Jerry’s name for the attendance game he was also presented with a special pin for his official position as Chapter MEC. Congratulations Bob!! Mike Goodrick is back as our newsletter editor – hurray! Thank you Mike for the timely distribution of the newsletter last month. He reminded any contributors to the newsletter that the due date is the last Sunday of each month. For the Riders education segment Steve Foster filled in for Larry Heisler this month. Larry was off taking his daughter to a sea cadet related event. Steve’s report went over many areas of motorcycle safety; like playing the “what if” game while riding to raise your own awareness of possible problems, for example saying to yourself “what if traffic around the corner is stopped” basically thinking ahead of what can happen, can save your life. Ride defensively since according to statistics 2/3 of accidents are caused by motorcycles not being seen or not being able to judge your speed and distance. Be cautious, leave enough distance between vehicles and much more. Best of all though “THE POWER OF THE WAVE.” Say hi to people, be friendly, have fun out there and make them see you. Continued on page 7 6 Chapter COY Message Following Steve’s presentation, Tim Hallock provided more details about the Moab, Utah ride he is planning for next year. About 23 people have expressed interest with about 10-15 bikes serious about it. Tim is still working on some of the details, trying to identify lodging, negotiating group discounts, and more. His philosophy in planning this is event is to give everyone as many options he can and let everyone decide on what parts they want to participate in. It sounds like there will be something interesting for everyone. A BIG THANK YOU went out to everyone for organizing such a great picnic event. It was on the warmer side that day but everyone had fun, the food was absolutely delicious and the entertainment was wonderful. THANKS AGAIN!!! If you haven’t heard already congratulations go out our Chapter Directors, Don and Beth Kuellmer. They have agreed to take on a larger position as Co-Assistant District Directors for the California District. Congratulations Don and Beth! On top of that Don and Beth are also being very generous and have donated back to the Chapter one of their grand prizes they won at the District Rally over the Labor Day weekend. They won a set of Bridgestone tires that are now being raffled off. There are only 40 tickets at $10 per ticket. The proceeds from the raffle will all go back to the Chapter. Many thanks to you, Don and Beth. As for the 50/50 drawings this month, this time around wearing chapter colors brought myself (Steve) luck and let me be the one to select the first door prize. Of course, like a true gentleman, I let Susi make this important decision and pick the first door prize. On top of that, not only does Linda Sciacqua sell the tickets but she also won this month’s 50/50 jackpot in the amount of $69. Congratulations Linda! The next gathering is scheduled for Saturday, October 17th – same time, same location.

Sprinkle each serving with grated cheese and green onions, and serve hot. Editors Note: I had the Smoked Dakota version of this that Curt brought to a recent BBQ and it was a HUGE hit. 12 Nuts & Bolts The Mayonnaise Jar When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day is not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and two cups of coffee. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and filled it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured it into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous YES. The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the en re contents into the jar, effec vely filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. “Now,” said the professor, as the laughter subsided, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things: family, children, health, friends and favorite passions. Things, that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would s ll be full. The pebbles are the things that ma er like your job, house, and car. The sand is everything else – the small stuff.” “If you put the sand into the jar first,” he con nued, “There is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your me and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.” “So pay a en on to the things that are cri cal to your happiness. Play with your children. Take your partner out to dinner. Spend me with good friends. There will always be me to clean the house and fix the dripping tap. Take care of the golf balls first – the things that really ma er. Set your priori es. The rest is just sand.” One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled and said, “I’m glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no ma er how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.” Thank you– Jacque Foster 13 Nuts & Bolts Want to read a great ride report here?
