Hey Bear, I like that patch as well.. But, as someone stated, calling ourselves 'kittens' may not give the right mental image of us. So it didn't make the final cut. Maybe one of the more artistic (I'm only good with a camera sorry) could try drawing up something for us.. perhaps incorporating the 191st logo in some manner into one for our local 'club'. As for Chesapeake.. I don't see a problem with that.. heck, we can be both! Same acronym, same club, just different uh, divisions of it.. It's a thought.. As for the polls.. voting still closes the first of December and I'll announce the winner.. Then, I'm sure Blake will be happy to give us our header (which brings up the 'logo' thing again) and I'll notify Buell dot com of 'the club'.. Thanks again to all those that have voted. Those of you that haven't.. better hurry it up! |

Well fellow Buellers... It's a done deal now.. The polls closed, the votes from all sources counted, tallied and verified to have no hanging chads or other traditional signs of muck puckery.. I suppose it's time for us all to welcome into official life... CABO The - Capital/Chesapeake Area Buell Owners are on the BadWeb.. See democracy in action.. |

Uh.. Yes. Because we said so. There, that was easy.. Long version, Are we or are we not owners of Buells? Show me where there is anything actionable? We're not like .. say, uh, HOG, we're not trying to make money on the name.. We're not charging dues... So there! There I said it.. I own a Buell and I'm proud of it! Now on to important stuff..

Ramon, you and everyone else that participated.. Your welcome.. and thank you for participating.. after all that's what we need to be about.. Participation. Hmmm... On the Buell website.. Could we also add C.A.B.O to Virginia and Maryland? Would Buell allow that? I mean, we are the group for NoVA and for A majority (if not all) of Maryland.. Just a thought.. Now, about a logo.. something catchy, something graphic.. something.. oh I don't know.. who can draw? Someone must have an idea somewhere... If you want a photographic logo.. let me know, I'll do the photo work.. I'm just not much of graphic artist type.. |

Here's something I worked on a while ago. It's a ripoff of the C3-Carolina Corner Carvers and the Aerostich Tours logos. They still need to be cleaned up.

Here's my second stab at it, I changed the colors to match an Old Bay can (Chesapeake Bay reference), The knee down rider for our passion for sport riding, wings to represent Buell (Pegasus), the star represents our 5 regions (dealerships & the District). Used "Impact" for the font(BUELL font). Not sure if something else might work better. If any of you have a cool font we can use let me know. The bike BTW is an 1125R.
![](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/37/328365.jpg) The most recent version of this logo has the rider centered, the star is outlined in black and upright instead of slightly canted to the left. Comments/remarks and suggestions welcome. |

Ras, I like the "level" star, instead of the canted one. Maybe start the Chesapeake at "9:00" and Washington at "3:00" I like it spelled out better than abbreviated Sorry, but I don't really care for the "bat wings" on/behind the bike. If you remove the wings, you'll have to "slide" the bike to the center of the star. Maybe for ease of decals/embroidery etc change the burgundy to blue. That would make it a 3 color logo instead of 4. I like the first letter of each word the accent color. |

anyone worried about how closely it resembles Cabo Wabo, the bar in Cabo San Lucas Mexico? You know i won a drinking contest there way back in the early 90s... i dont have any official input here, im just in the area and was looking to get involved with a group and you guys are my 'assigned region'. good luck with the logo. |

I played with it a little.
![](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/37/329012.jpg) I changed the burgundy to blue in the lettering, removed the burgundy ring around the star and "squared up" (not sure how else to describe it) the title circle. I tried to also add a black ring around the blue circle, but didn't have much luck with my limited PS ability. I went with just blue, black and white to make it a 2 color logo on a white background. Every extra color adds to the cost of printed t's, embroidery etc. |

Hey Smiley! Welcome aboard! (so to speak) Yeah, the WABO part originally was an idea for something else. I think we're going to drop it to try and keep it a little simpler to remember. Stay tuned as we work on little things.. Like getting ourselves 'introduced' to the area dealers and hopefully setting up a thing or two for us to do as a uh.. gang? err.. group.. yeah, that's right.. Ramon, Toona, I think we're getting closer! I had given another idea via PM and we're going to see if it's viable before we display it to see what folks think. Hmmm.. One niggling thing, should Capital come first in Capital/Chesapeake? One idea that won't work for patches or tees would be to use a large capital 'C' and then have the rest of the words spelled from them One word along the top, one along the bottom.. But I think that would require the letters to be too small to embroider (for a patch) or to read very easily. Oh and remember, for patch ideas.. NO 3 PATCH DESIGNS.. We're not that kind of group and there's no need to draw the hassles on the road. |

Looks good, I still like Paul's both are good. How about three stars like DC uses instead of one? One each for MD, VA and DC
One white star on a blue background, like that free Buell "own the corners" hat could be confused with the cowgirls symbol.... |
