He also brought in patch examples for everyone to see. Ron= Members agreed to serve lunch at the dealership on Saturday, Sept. 30 for our WIDE OPEN HOUSE to raise money. HDB will supply all the food. They would also like to do a Bike Show on this day. * Eddie suggested that B.R.A.G. volunteer to do physical maintenance on the Bradford Woods property in lieu of money donation.

They have also requested that this meeting begin at 10am, in order to have more ti me to ride. Other items discussed: · Dealership should carry more commonly used replacement parts for Buell (foot pegs, left & right controls, mirrors, clutch cables, etc.) Rich said that he would like them to list the items that they want us to carry. · The club would like to prepare a video from the ferring of a motorcycle to be presented with the Indiana proposal for the Wicked Twisty Tour 2007.

They suggested that maps of the area be included with the visual presentation. · They really want to be a club that is worthy of a visit from Eric Buell. · They would like to begin planning now for Homecoming 2007 Karen Boehnlein Marketing/Events Coordinator Harley-Davidson/Buell of Bloomington 812-333-8300 Fx 812-333-8345 karenb@indianaharley.com Karen Boehnlein Marketing/Events Coordinator Harley-Davidson/Buell of Bloomington 812-333-8300 Fx 812-333-8345 karenb@indianaharley.com   Har1ey Posted on Friday, August 25, 2006 - 08:47 pm:        Glenn Woolsey= Putting up $100 toward patches, and not a new member   Buelet Posted on Friday, August 25, 2006 - 09:02 pm:        It's all right Glenn, being new again isn't that bad is it? ...bribing your way in won't work either... It's free! See what happens when you're gone too long?   Fasted Posted on Friday, August 25, 2006 - 11:47 pm:        ok everyone......this is the patch we looked at at the last meeting. they will cost $15 dollars. pm me here on badweb or email me with your tentative order. better to underestimate rather than overestimate. to get that price, we will need to order 36 patches.........eddie   Buelet Posted on Saturday, August 26, 2006 - 01:02 am:        I don't know what anyone else's plans are, but I'm heading towards Bloomington-HD/Buell bright & early.

Thanks to everyone who attended the Demo Day. We had 15 motorcycles in the fleet and completed 11 trips at 16 miles each. You can do the math. It was a successful day with a great interest in Buells! Thanks to Erin for her help at the registration table and with sweep riding, great job. Ed, we are going to go ahead and order the minimum patch order of 36 (?) and all the members can purchase what they want at the meetings. If we don't sell them all then you and I will have our jackets full! Glen, start showing up and we will consider you a regular! Thanks again, look forward to seeing everyone soon.   Skeeter_xb Posted on Tuesday, August 29, 2006 - 01:47 pm:        I have been scarce the last couple months, but I can ride this weekend. Who wants to meet up and ride Saturday?   Wademan Posted on Tuesday, August 29, 2006 - 05:22 pm:        SO WHO IS IN??? Who: Anyone with two wheels and who wants to go. What: A SCHWEEET two day motorcycle ride through the Indiana side of the Ohio River Valley Where: All over the great state of Indiana. When: It takes two days, starting this Sunday in Bloomington and ending the following Monday in the same place it started. Total of ~475 amazing miles. How: By sheer wits. But here are some more details.... -Stay Sunday night somewhere near I65 and 37 which is about 250 miles into the trip. Camping is easy there as that whole area is the Hoosier National Forest. However I would rather share a hotel and have a shower so I am on the hunt for the closest reasonable hotel and will post in a bit what I find. Camping is not out however if others want to. It is fun to camp. -Roads are alot of Indiana state map 'scenic' roads that run along the Ohio river. Other roads are ones I have been on and know to be a good time. And of course some suck and are straight but nothing is perfect. -This weekends weather looks good. -I dont know what else... questions? Who's IN? Wade PS This map is proving to be a major pain to upload. PM me and I will send you a copy of the Map if you want. Sorry.   Wademan Posted on Tuesday, August 29, 2006 - 05:34 pm:        Ok. I found a Holiday Inn Express and a bunch others close by in Corydon. Its almost exactly half way. Wade   Buelet Posted on Tuesday, August 29, 2006 - 05:40 pm:        Here's the map. We're thinking about it... Start time on Sunday? Stopping after 250 miles? ...475 miles sounds like a day ride to me.. How 'bout stopping 475 miles into the trip? Of course you see less scenery that way... Just tossing about ideas! Didn't mean to hijack your idea!! Oh yeah, here's the map!   Wademan Posted on Tuesday, August 29, 2006 - 06:27 pm:        Shawn, Sorry I forgot to mention WE were the ones thinking about this. I got caught up in the dang uploading, resizing and resizing, and just wanted it posted. So... I assume you are in Shawn? Dude you can pack on miles. I have done two 360 mile days just strictly traveling, not taking the fun way or anything, and that got grueling at the end. Those were on roads I knew well. So I give the 475 mile day idea a thumbs down. Sorry. That many miles on twisty/demanding roads I dont know in one day does not sound appealing to me. For me 250-300 is just right in order to enjoy the ride. This is not to say if we feel ambitious to take the longer way, I like to plan lightly enough that changes can be made while underway without having to rethink everything. Start time Sunday is early... Like 8 or 9 would be nice. That way we can get some miles in before lunch and have time to go on side routes and look at shit along the way. ..................   Jandj_davis Posted on Wednesday, August 30, 2006 - 10:12 am:        Buelet - do you have a high res version of that image that you could send me? send it to jandj_davis-at-yahoo-dot-com. Thanks.   Adrian_8 Posted on Wednesday, August 30, 2006 - 10:29 pm:        Hey Guys....I would have went with you on the two-dayer...but...I am going to Springfield, Illinois to the AMA National Mile race.. We will get togther and do some ULYin"...AL   Adrian_8 Posted on Wednesday, August 30, 2006 - 10:29 pm:        Hey Guys....I would have went with you on the two-dayer...but...I am going to Springfield, Illinois to the AMA National Mile race..

Let me know if you guys are going to be riding any where down south like Paoli or French Lick on Saturday and i can meet up. I will need to know tonight so i can plan on whether or not to bring my bike.   Fasted Posted on Thursday, August 31, 2006 - 06:13 pm:        i have been holding out on committing to ride saturday due to existing plans (which may fall thru). skeeter or raptor, don't go by me for your plans, but i would like to ride this weekend......also thinkin' about the nhra nationals saturday afternoon-evening (pete?) there are always sunday and monday possibilities.........   Adrian_8 Posted on Friday, September 01, 2006 - 11:42 am:        Fasted..you CANNOT go with them...you have to stay home and make my #3 DVD...AL   Fasted Posted on Friday, September 01, 2006 - 10:34 pm:        no worry, soon come.......   Wademan Posted on Saturday, September 02, 2006 - 07:53 pm:        My Bloomington dispach buddy was telling me some guy on a X1 (he thought, but buell for sure) got chased down and caught by half a dozen cops when he evaded arrest in downtown Bloomington the other night. So who was it???   Fasted Posted on Saturday, September 02, 2006 - 10:03 pm:        wade, check your email.............. i'm thinkin' about trying to meet up with a group to ride with tomorrow morning. they leave the dairy queen at sr144 & sr 37 at 9:00am. that means leaving bloomington at 8:00am. if you wanna go, call me at about 7:00 am.....812-360-5775   Fasted Posted on Sunday, September 03, 2006 - 07:51 am:        sorry wade..........that should have been 361, not 360........let's try again soon...eddie   Fasted Posted on Sunday, September 03, 2006 - 11:11 am:        wade............i'm home .....try calling again 361-5775   Cyclonemaniac Posted on Monday, September 04, 2006 - 11:10 pm:        Hey Ed, was that you I passed on SR58 headed west Sunday afternoon around 5ish?
