Well, there were threads for almost all the other ones. I will be there, only tomorrow, because I have drill the rest of the week... I should be there at 3pm for a couple of hours at least before I have to take the GF back to the station to make the train to get all the way home that same night. Anyone else going? |

I'm going Sunday. Have a motor to return to James Gang's Mike K. (coolice). He has a bike to pick up from the Buell display. |

I'm supposed to be going on Saturday, but it remains to be seen whether it will fall apart. Getting together early on a Saturday after a late Friday can be a problem with certain of my friends. |

I was going to head down there on Saturday, but now it looks like I have to work Friday night into Saturday morning. Whoever goes, I hope you have fun! |

I actually work right next to the convention center. All this week I've been watching all the factory semi's roll in an unload the goods: KTM, Buell, Honda, etc. I can't take it anymore!! I'm gonna be there at 3pm sharp on Friday! I see they have a few billboards up on I-294 and have been advertising on 780 WBBM. |

Of course I'll have the Buell schwag on, with my big ass camera around my neck... I'll also have a beautiful woman on my arm. |

I'd love to go but my left foot can't handle the walking right now. |

Steve, give me a jingle. I'll be there at opening for sure!!! Tell everyone bring their keys, and the extra set, see if they can't get extra t-shirts to send out to people. I have to try to get one for Spidey since he didn't make the Detroit IMS... Dana, http://www.scootaround.com/ Rent one..=) LOL (Message edited by brinnutz on February 05, 2009) |

Hey, we'll be pushing my Brother-in-Law around in a wheel chair. But one benefit from it, is ROCK STAR PARKING! |

I'm going today since I have to work both Saturday & Sunday. If we didn't still have some icy spots on the roads, I'd ride the bike. It's suppose to hit in the 50's here this weekend. |

Good seeing you guys! There definitely wasn't as much there as last year...but it was still cool... Ran into Chad (he was one of the Marketing guys from the 25th), and he's still doing the same thing..Good to see him also. |

I've got a couple, but a lot didn't come out like I thought they did. It was my first time shooting with this lens... Plus, I'm at drill so no chance of uploading. |

Wilson, I really wanted to go but my left foot has been screwed up for 5 months now with something called planter fasciitis. I actually started to tear my Arch muscle. Just got 5 shots of quartazone. Doc said take it easy for a few days. It really sucks because I want to do things that require walking longer periods and I'm not suppose to. If I do.... it hurts like hell. |

I've got a few pics I'll upload to my flickr site later this evening... It was nice seeing you Wilson. We ran in to a new Buell engineer & his wife and daughter while outside having a smoke. REALLY nice family. They may be joining the Brew City crew on a few rides in the future since he doesn't know the "good" roads in Wisconsin yet. Spring just can't get here soon enough! |

I had high hopes for being there but I'm stuck in a hospital bed instead. (bah humbug!) Any good Buell schwag this time around? Rock star parking....yeah I might have heard of that before |

They gave out some T-Shirts for anyone who presented a Buell key. It seems you made it thru your procedure. That's great news Brian! |

Yeah, we are doing some experimenting with the level of morphine injection. Looking good thus far. |

Morphine is cool... and morphine sucks. "Vitamin V" isn't much better. Hang in there Brian. |

I went today. For some reason I didn't check in last night and missed this thread. I have an extra size L shirt as well for anyone that wants it. |
