Julie, I found where there does seem to be two classes scheduled, but not at the Pueblo track. They list the new High Plains Raceway as the venue for the new racer class.

John, we're not real sure exactly what the problem was. They did an ECM reflash and said the bike was running perfect after that. They also put in new spark plugs. We're heading up there tomorrow morning and Dan will take it out for a test ride before we load it up to come home. We'll let you know.

Jody, thanks for the info. The price sure jumped up tho. Last year we only paid $150 each. Oh well, it must be due to going to help pay for the new track. I'm kinda bummed tho cause I actually like Pueblo. It's got some nice sharp corners to practice in, esp the button-hook.

But hey, I love getting on as many different tracks as I can. Trying to talk Dan into doing a Keith Code class out at Miller Motorsports.

I didn't ride Dan's bike when it came in, but the SM asked me to take it for a spin when they were done.
It ran a lot stronger than I expected.
Good pull in all gears, I think Dan'll be pleased.

Getting my day going, Loretta will be out front at HC-HD/B.
I'm working so I'll be a bit tied up, should be able to take one of my breaks while y'all are in.

C Ya!

It was great seeing Dave, Zack and Bones again today. Dan got himself a new Buell jacket and it's sweet.

Got home safe, our furniture got delivered early so we got to get out and take a ride. Heated gear is soooo nice. It was great being back on the bike again. Dan was very happy and had a big smile on his face.

Hopefully HCHD will get to bring some bikes to the track this summer to test ride. I'm counting on you Dave and if you need any help let me know.

Will be visiting Frank and Lynn tomorrow, but.....not on the bikes. We're caging it.

The clothing guy at HCHD (I cannot remember his name) said that they were expecting some new Buell clothing in and was excited about the new Buell jacket.

He also rode a Buell....

I will make a trip up to HCHD when my Uly bags come in. I am looking forward to having some time to look around the shop.

Julie, it was great to see you and Dan this weekend. I know you guys had places to go but it was nice to hang out and talk Buells and riding.

I am really hoping we can get some good rides going this summer in Colorado. I will post details of the S2 Gathering as it gets closer. Depending when Homecoming is Lynn and I will try to make it out there again. If the stars do not line up I might go without Lynn.

I am sure the Denver Group will have some rides as well.

I hope Dan likes the race muffler and his bike is still running strong.

I am really excited about the enthusiasm that HCHD has shown towards the Buell brand.

It will be a great summer. Now, when does this cold stuff go away.

Hi Frank and Lynn, it was neat seeing you both last weekend.

Dan is currently in the garage turning his bike WHITE. He's prepping the race muffler, planning on doing some customizing to it. the plan is to put a stainless steel ceramic coating on it. Should look sweet.

It's suppose to be fairly nice this weekend so we've already talked about going out for a ride. : )

Stay warm and enjoy ALL those bikes.

I was talking to Dan and have thought about having a get together at our house this summer for the Colo Buellers. Just a thought.

Julie,
Count me in! Sounds like a great idea for a get together. So Dan is trying out the race muffler. I liked his yellow bike but white is nice. Now he needs the Hero blue wheels to go with the white. Hope all is well and before too long, lets do a ride (just need the snow to melt a bit.)

Hi John, well, the race muffler is going to go on my bike. Am looking forward for a beefier sound and maybe....power.

We were talking last night about looking into getting a bike specifically for the track. A Kawasaki 600 maybe. Need to get on craigslist and start looking. I must be crazy. Oh well.

Julie,
Your not crazy but just having fun and enjoying what you love to do. Isn't that what its all about? Maybe a little bit of middle age crazy???
any of the Jap bikes in 600 range are neat. Suzuki, Yamaha, or Kawasaki. I would prefer the 1st two though.

Anyone riding tomorrow (Friday)? It sounds like the next several days should be pretty nice, and I know that I'm in need of a good ride. I'm off Friday...and the rest of my family has work/school, so it might be my best day to get out.

I'm getting over some crud bug that hit me on Monday. I may be able to ride this weekend, but tomorrow probably isn't a good idea.

Dan and I are working but we will be getting out over the weekend. Having withdrawals.

Hope you get better soon Jody. Drink some green tea, lots of anti-oxidants help fight the bugs.

We're planning on doing a ride probably later this afternoon.

Boys and their toys!!!!

Took a nice 100 mile ride today. Barely had the heated gear on. Didn't really need it today.

Hope everyone had a great day. Look forward to seeing your bags on your new bike, Frank.

We'll be out tomorrow again.

Julie, looks like Dan was staying busy. Steve and Troy stopped by today and just in time to help with the bags. They are all installed along with the Signal Dynamics voltage indicator to tell me the status of my battery and charging system.

Frank, looks great. You're ready to go on a nice LONG ride now.

We're riding to church this morning then taking a short ride afterwards. Dan's got lots of stuff he wants to get done today. (getting my race muffler coated for one)

Have a great ride and I hope Jody is feeling better.

I'm not dead...yet.

Feeling better but not 100%, which is how I felt on Thursday and Friday - then the second wave with fever hit me. Thanks for calling and I hope y'all had a great ride yesterday.

Thanks to the doc, some amoxicillin, and some prednisone I am feeling much better. Yesterday afternoon I felt well enough to ride up Tallahassee Rd. and got a few pics in:
