This is cool . . . . for those of you who have not been here 10 or 11 years let me make a couple introductions.
Mr. Eric Vaden is with Geico Motorsports and will soon be struggling to "Evade" the grip of contagious Buell enthusiasm that snagged me 22 years ago and has since snagged about 15,000 Badwebbers.
Richie Morris is to Buell Racing what Arthur Fielder was to the Boston Pops. Someone, regardless of how much talent and resources are on tap . . had to be waving the wand and directing the effort.
We are thrilled to have you two contributing. Badweb has a looooooong history and we have members in (frankly I've lost count but I have had Badweb members from 6 countries in my living room at one time) many countries.
This is going to be an exciting year for Buell Racing and you can count on the Buell community for all the support we can lend.
Welcome!

P.S. - Not a bad place to sound off from around the world and let the folks at Geico know how many are watching!
OK - ust found that Geico is teamed with Liberty Mutual here in CA... I'll do some legwork, meanwhile it's time to get rolling - that work thing interferes sometimes.
Somehow I don't see Barnes as the "male model" type. I have a feeling those photo shoots were tougher for him than racing 200 miles with a broken hand.
One of the key things that DMG was wanting to achieve was to broaden sponsorship beyond the hardcore performance brands that have dominated AMA. The Geico deal along with Michael Jordon's National Guard deal has to be a great beginning in that direction.
Most of the naysayers are wedded to the status quo and can't see that there is a much bigger world outside for MC racing to tap into.
