Recently I held a motorcycle maintenance day event at my home shop geared toward adventure motorcycle riders. I invited world-renowned adventure rider and trainer Bill Dragoo to demonstrate the toolkit he uses while traveling the world on his motorcycle. Bill also talked about training for adventure riders.
I invited people to bring their motorcycles and we could work together to perform routine maintenance tasks. Unfortunately, pending wet weather meant only a few hardy souls rode their bikes. One person brought a rear tire to change, and I demonstrated how to change a rear tire of my own personal 2016 BMW F650GS Sertao.
My company SageNet sponsored pizza for the group, and Ted Leslie with MyBikerAttorney provided refreshments. While riders were from all segments of society, several were in the IT industry, so after the event we hung around and talked about IT issues over beers!
