Mark,

Where's mine? How come one of our guys gets his in California and I'm just right next door from you in Western North Carolina?
I can see where your priorities are? :badgrin:

Got mine in the mail today, and got it on the bike. Took all of 5 minutes, including the time to find a small screwdriver.

One of, if not the, easiest install I've done on a bike; it looks great; and it's functional and unobtrusive. Perfect. :-)

Thanks, Mark!

Good roads,

- Lewellen

Received the slider in yesterday's mail and will install it today. Thanks again to Mark for getting this arranged and for taking the time to pack these up and mail them out.

That IS an interesting question. But I can't answer it. Ask the U.S. Mail. I mailed them all at the same time. We should have just met in Hot Springs and I could have handed it to you and then we could have gone riding.

Now the riding part sounds like a good idea. I'm sure the slider will be here Monday.

Got mine... too hot to fool with it right now. 110 heat index. Miserable start of summer. :(

Just ordered a cool vest from Silver Eagle Outfitters to use riding and when teaching Riders Edge classes. Will report on result after the ERC class on Friday!

Sorry if this has been asked and answered. This looks like a pivot point. Is there any issue re: pushing it in and tightening it down, and sticking on the logo?

Seems too easy! :-k

I think Roberto Ziobato has had his slider on his bike for a while with no reported problems.
