Missed you last night, Frank, but I understand. Hopefully you were able to watch the race at home. Does Sunday look like a good ride day for you? |

Yeah, I did see the race. Boy it was great seeing a Buell in the lead and fighting the other bikes. I will be working on the S1W and doing some house work. Lynn is in FL for a visit with her parents so I need to get the house cleaned up a bit for her arrival back in Colorado. I am trying to run down an electrical problem with the turn signals, change the bars out, change the controls and blinkers to XB ones, replace the front isolator etc... I was hoping there would be pics of the activities at HCHD! Wish I could have been there. Frank |

Frank, I think Jammin did get some pictures and will probably post them soon. I know when you need to get work done you need to focus. I'm still debating getting on the bike or taking the truck up Phantom Canyon Road. I'm tending to the latter at the moment. |

We had an extreme busy Sat, was selling bikes until 7pm, so no time to download. Today is my day off, going on bicycle ride to burn some of those hotwings and beers off from Friday night. Camera at work, will post photos on Monday. Thanks everyone for coming. Our host & sponsor was very pleased with the turn out and goings-on the whole evening. One of our racers was there, Brian Anderson was recovering from hernia surgery and the other was unable to make it for family reasons. We may do another for an up-coming race if televised. ~jammer |

I do not have a capable photo editor here so I will post the photos on our FaceBook page (PM me or e-mail here at the shop dave[at]highCountryHarley.com and I will give you a FaceBook invite. Otherwise I will shrink the photo files and post them here. Thank you all for coming. We also felt it was a great success as a store event. ~jammer PS. we will likely be doing another race night in the future if they have any televised. |

Great fun, great people, great dealer! Dave, that one picture with the blurry guy isn't the camera out of focus, I think he's just really fast. |
