August Newsletter

Greetings E-club Members,

August has been a busy month as we prepare to bid Bob and Suzanne farewell and safe travels on their 2 week motorcycle tour with a group of 14 others through Eastern Europe in celebration of our 30 year anniversary. When the cat’s away the mice will play…Stay tuned to hear about a fun and exciting promotion we have planned while the bosses are out of the country!
 
Thanks for the Feedback!

We received great feedback via facebook and last month’s newsletter on tech session topics. A special thanks to Yermo Lamers and Yun Lung Lang for the suspension setup suggestion; and Scott Hammond for suggesting a tutorial on connecting accessories to your CAN-bus system.

Next month’s session is scheduled for September 15 at 11 am and will be a BONUS session, covering the above 2 suggested topics: The Secrets of Suspension Tuning and “Power Block” Accessory Wiring!
