To BAMGS & BMCNE'ers:
Sorry to have missed the meet at Deerfield. Lazarus and I started out at
7:45 this morning heading North. Was having a great bit of motoring for about
30 miles (up to Braintree). All of a sudden, while cruising along at a
comfortable 60 mph, Lazarus started to shimmy. Anything over about 50 just
didn't feel right. Pulled over and tried the simple checks, i.e., all lug nuts
present and tight, no loose or missing fasteners in the steering/suspension, no
noticeable play in the wheels. My suspicion is that a wheel weight may have
fallen off so as to unbalance a wheel. Turned around and headed back home.
Shucks, I was looking forward to meeting up with you folks.
