The Chapter gathered at Bill in Berryville's massive and well-equipped shop for our annual Sock Wash. The projects this year were:

• Tony's Indian 841 wouldn't start
• Rollo's Panhead toolbox cracked between the bolt holes
• George's Model 165 needed the cylinder reinstalled
• Dave's rechromed timer cover no longer fit on the timer
• Dave's KH cylinders needed the valves refaced

The Washers of Socks were: Justin Fulcher, Bob Nicholas, Tom “Rollo” Hardy, Mike Mueller, Tony Greenfield, Craig Williams, Juan Sakata, Joe Earman, Don Hollis and Sue Greer, Tom Wilson, Matt Pauly, Adam Chichon and Tammy Frederickson, George Ogden, Eric Chiapponi, Bill Lackman, Dave Hennessey,
and prospective new member Michael Coy.

The Good News

• Tony's Indian 841 ignition switch was fixed, and the bike is now running.
• Rollo's toolbox crack was fixed and is ready for paint.
• George's Model 165 engine is back together, and soon will be back in the bike.
• Dave's rechromed timer cover now fits nicely on the timer.

The Bad News

• Dave's KH - after refacing the valves and lapping the seats, a crack was discovered between a valve pocket and the piston bore in one cylinder.
