Yep, just check the brakes of the riders behind you before joining in. Also a good way to deal with tailgaters. |

Group Yo Yo sounds like getting stuck at the back of the company when doing a force march. Sucks big wampum. Think I will ride up front even if I am a company of one. LOL |

As long as the Origonators are at the front... i.e. Tony, court, etc.... i think all the time that they are putting into this should be a reserved spot in the pack... know what i mean? DUDE THIS TRIP IS GOING DOWN IN THE HISTORY BOOKS! |

I'm confused. I'm a BRAG member but am not affiliated with a local chapter. When I send my signature, what should I do? I mean, should I just send a piece of paper, or a 5 x 7 card, or what? In other words, what format should I use? Also, can I say anything like, "Congratulations, on twenty years! Keep up the good work!" or should I just send my signature? I realize everybody can't tell their life story but can they add a little comment or no? These are some of the questions I have and maybe other people do too. Also, I do plan on being there! |

Yeah, I sent Tony an email about it but I thought if I have these questions, maybe other people do too. I thought it might be better to get it answered once and for all. It's always been said that clubs should sign an 11 x 17 piece of paper, but it's never been clear what "single signers" should do. Of course, it's possible that I just worry about this detail more than it's worth and I should just send in my signature. |

Unfortunatly stuff like that I wrote got sent to the archives. Blake can I have a little thing at the top of this page like on some strings? Ok enough of that. M2me, I just responded to your E-mail For those of you with the same questions: If you would like you can write whatever you want. I am trying to make this "card" like a coffe table book. Don't write a 10 page Shakespear sonet or anything but a paragraph is cool. Pictures are cool too. Anything you want will be fine (within reason). Any questions my e-mail is in my profile and other contact information. Thanks Tony |

OK, this is starting to become more clear. BRAG clubs should sign 11 x 17 pieces of paper. That will give them plenty of room to add personal comments and even include some pictures. Single signers can sign and add comments/pictures to a reasonable size piece of paper like 8.5 x 11 or smaller and these individual signatures will be compilied by Tony onto 11 x 17 paper. Then, all of the 11 x 17 pages will be put together to form the card or "book". Is this right Spiderman? I got your email, thanks. |

M2me, Get together with Brad/BluzM2 up there and put together a MN-contingent card. You folks can be the independant club, I_BRAG, or how about IMN-BRAG, you get the idea. I think an "official" B.R.A.G. club has to be sponsored by a valid dealership, but is there any rule that the dealership has to be local to the club? Can a dealership in, oh, Iowa or Kansas or Modesto or Colorado for instance sponsor a group of Buellers in Minnesota? Wrong section for the topic, but hey, well, maybe I'll just go start a new thread.... |

I think the club has to be local but there is nothing specific in the By-laws. Our club has a member that lives in Pa. LOL |

St. Paul Harley has a club but I've never looked into it. I might call them up and see if they are doing anything with this 20th anniversary. I am going to try and get to the Waterloo Buell open house in April. Maybe I'll join their club then. I'm not selling too many Indians. That's only fair, since they haven't paid me a dime or even given me an office to use. |

>>>COURT will the Elves be coming for this one(the 20th)???? Look boys and girls....there are times that the planets just line up. Times like happened at Pocono in 1997. (Remember Sir Mikey Two Buells?) As long as we are going to do this, I say do it right. B.R.A.G., the official group, has basically put a "nobody's home" recording on the machine and transferred all staff to HD undertakings. I'd do the same thing given the magnitude of the challenge they have on their hands with the 100th. But, good fortune is ours group. We have, within the ranks of the enthusiasts, sufficient enthusiasm to WANT it to happen and sufficient inteletual, entillectu, intoolec....BRAIN POWER to MAKE it happen. As long as we're going, why not go big? This will require Bomber & Co. to step up to the plate again. They've proved their short notice capabilites in the past. We'll have to minimize potential impact on the working factory. But I say we hold THE PARTY OF THE YEAR to celebrate 20 years of Buell. It'll be August, it'll be the perfect time for folks who want to ride a ways and we can spend some time celebratinbg conducting rides, etc. There MAY be a chance we can line up some other worthwhile things and as soon as Splidey and the WI group get a rough outline, we'll set about that. This could JUST be one of the BEST B.R.A.G. events ever.....who wants to notify B.R.A.G.? Hehehehe....this is kinda like the Grinch not being able to stop Christmas from coming..... By the power vested in me, I hereby declare this party..... SUPER BUELL XX Court |
