Only 7 votes for my dry, angry rub and tug. Must be a bunch of millennial's riding VFR's these days.

 

hey there, I'm a new vf500 owner, but i'm also a member of NABR (just joined here, and saw this thread)

 

HI Nancy, when you get a chance you need to introduce yourself (with a photo or two of your bike) by making a new post on the Introductions forum. Glad that you have joined us!

 

Just ran across this thread for the first time...I'd like to pitch in for the north San Diego county area.

Is this thread itself the database of willing VFR-assisters?

 

It is all VFRW volunteers. You should post up your details in the format suggested in the original post though. Makes it easier for those who need assistance to find you. I don't think anything is put into any data base. Just this thread so you might want to book mark it. I have.

Thanks for jumping in.

 

I'm in...

vfrw member: sfdownhill
name: Lance
equipment: VFR transport, tiedowns, canyon dancer, fuel, tools [including rider attitude-restoration torque wrench]
service range: 1 hour radius of north San Diego county [City of Vista]
contact method: PM via vfrw, or contact vfrw moderator to text

 

Does that “ rider attitude-restoration torque wrench” come in a can or bottle? Lol

 

Three of each to make a sixpack that's sure to please.

 

I'd sign up, but I think there has to either be a map dedicated to this purpose, or a shared Google Sheet. In the moment I need help, I could spend an hour looking to see if there's someone near me......but it's not going to happen, I suspect.
A Google Sheet, shared by the link only, does place trust in the hands of everyone on it.....but I'd risk my name/cell phone/location/email to something like that.
I can make it happen if people want to try that.
In an moment of need, you'd open the sheet, organized by state, and start looking at cities.

 

Just a little while more and you'll have a buddy. Hoping I can get my shit together by September, and keeping my fingers crossed that all those deals I've been seeing will still be available.
