Time Change

On Saturday night, make sure you set your clocks ahead one hour. Don't want anyone to be late for work.

Shouldn't there be a drive on Sunday morning to commemorate the occasion?

I hate losing the hour, but I'm just going to go to bed early.

I'm usually in SoCal these days, but am slowly moving up to Monterey. At least I get a regular run up Hwy 1 (with a warm up across 58).

This thread should come with a reminder on how to change the clock time, I totally forgot and am too lazy to search or check the manual =]

EDIT: Okay I wasn't that lazy after all, searched and found it, for the rest of you guys that might be even lazier then I am. Press and hold the stalk button until the colon on the clock starts flashing then change the hours with the left button, press again to go to minutes, again to set. Happy Daylight Savings!

You've only got one if you have the OBC (on-board computer). What most people do is use the button on the instrument pod, which happens to have a CLOCK on it.

Sorry should've been more clear, the "stalk" i'm referring to is the one you use to signal left/right, on the end of it, it should be a button, you can press it to cycle through the various on-board computer displays on your dash.

This just changes mine from mph/kph or 12hr clock to 24 hr clock etc.

I remember the last time I did it I used this buttons that are between the tach and spedometer. I can't remember off the top of my head but you can find it here!

one nice thing about Arizona is not having to change the clocks.
