How about a meeting at Old Glory in Laurel. Be a nice change to meet with fellow Buellers and actually look at some new Buells. Or, I'm OK with Ft. Washington if that's the consensus. They do have some good, free food. |

OG would be cool,perhaps we can do a ride afterwards. Brian, are you riding yet or is the wrist still bothering you? I would hate to see your bikes collecting dust and getting flat spots on your tires do to lack of use. I may be able to take time out of my busy schedule and exercise your bikes for you if you are still incapacitated. (Message edited by 2kx1 on June 01, 2009) |

Hey guys I taught some on the range for Total Control then on Sunday I got the Uly out and rode up to Cecil County Dragway and watched some drag races. They had lots of bikes dragracing up there including one Buell Firebolt here is a picture of him.
route up was Key bridge to route 7 to 136, 22, 155, 161, route 1 across the dam, route 222, 276, Camp something road, to Theodore rd the drag strip is on that. I passed this so many times last year doing my QAS job, yesterday I finally got to see it. It is a nice dragstrip. |

Hey Lars, Thanks for your concern about me and my bikes welfare. My wrist is healing very nicely and I am ahead of schedule for rehab. I think I can ride now and I will try it out locally this week and see how it goes. Hope to see you guys this Sat. somewhere. |

I think Ft. Washington HD is an interesting old dealer and a decent location. I understand they have not sold/serviced Buells for a long time now. Is that the case? Are there Buell-savvy staff there still, or is it just more of a good area locale to meet up? |

Eagle1 is looking for local riders and may go to Old Glory. Are we meeting up at Ft Wash? Let's just met at Old Glory. I think Ft. Washington HD is an interesting old dealer and a decent location. I understand they have not sold/serviced Buells for a long time now. Is that the case? Are there Buell-savvy staff there still, or is it just more of a good area locale to meet up? Ft Washington got out of the Buell business last July-August. We found out at Homecoming 2008. There are a couple of parts guys that have some good tuber knowledge. I would say that only only time they had knowledgeable Buell salesmen is when we held the monthly BRAG meeting. There is 1 good tech there, ask Black, but as a whole they much rather talk HD. I have been leading a ride from there because it is a good place to start from. It was something I put together to hook up with Annapolis BRAG. I have now turned it into a excuse to get a 5 Guy's hamburger. |

I need help from the Ft. Washington crew setting up a ride for June 27th, any takers? |

Actually two excellent techs, Rick (Smitty) Smith (the master of tubers and x-bikes) and his brother Phil, who is not only a master of tubers and x-bikes, but Buell factory trained on the 1125R. If those two guys ever up and disappear, I have 'em chained up in my garage tuning up my bikes. (Only kidding!). Don't know my plans yet for Saturday. Need to get better directions to Old Glory......or we could do Winchester. Shenandoah is having a big wing ding this weekend too. It's the "Rally in the Valley" on Saturday and Sunday. |

Myself, Jose, Paul, Lars, and RJ left from there about 1130 for rides around that area North and west from the dealer. We were scouting routes for rides from Old Glory for upcoming events. We had a good day and Man! I needed to get out and ride. |

Yah, me drinking coffee talking with him? My wife took it, I posted it Court took quite a few others of me, doing various things with/to various people...Erik among them. (don't worry, he was a "with" photo, not a "to" photo!) Between Court and Kim and FSkinner...there's just too damned many pics of my ugly mug out there now! |

>>>Between Court and Kim and FSkinner...there's just too damned many pics of my ugly mug out there now! That is an accurate statement. Just walked in the door and have begun downloading 8GB, roughly 900, photos. . . . Arguably one of the better Homecoming events. I've got a lot to say. |

Thanks Court...I can feel the love I agree, it was a great event - nice and personal, with (as always) great people. It was great to see you again. Can't wait to hear what you've got to say Also, would love to see some of those farm pics that almost got you hauled off, LOL. |

do you have any pic of the used 9R. i am trying to talk my brother into a buell when he upgrades from the Slut Ninja 500. the bike has had 9 owners and is held together with rtv and safety wire. |

I'm assuming it is the yellow 07 9R. If so from an impartial party she is very clean and very yellow. It would be perfect for taking to Deals Gap and making KillBoy's front page. You know he loves yellow and black right... I really didn't spend that much time ogling it, but from 10 feet it looked nearly new. |

I'm working on getting it on our websites...for some reason I *assumed* it was on there (my bad). Now just trying to get it posted. I'll put up a link as soon as it's on. It *is* a very clean bike. We sold it new, did the race ECM / filter / Jardine here. I want to say 8k miles(ish). Buell soft saddlebags, yellow bodywork, black windscreen, white wheels - sharp looking bike. I know the original owner personally - she's a fanatic, and the only reason it got sold was because she's getting married and moving onto land only accessible by Uly. Once the dust settles from the wedding, it'll be Uly time for her. And c'mon now....RTV is good stuff. I've held 11 second Turbo Dodges together with the stuff |

I'll be out tomorrow leaving the house around noon. I'll be riding with a chicky though and she'll be on a cruiser so It's going to be a tame one, with occasional blasts on the throttle. |
