Keep riding, keep meeting If we can't meet at IL HD then we can still meet somewhere. |

If this recent demise of a passionate company does not point out the "unintended consequences" of poor government policies, that crippled a nation and brought down a great motorcycle company. I too say, Screw It let's ride. No putting our bikes up like preserves to rake in some profit for an "aire loom" but use them as Erik designed them to be used. If the Chinese were not going to lend me the $ I should but a bike on each credit card and say up yours to all the nay sayers. Ride well to live, live to ride, well. All the best, Keith K |

Nice Keith. And in that spirit- Marc H., his friend English, Dana and I have organized a ride for this Sunday the 18th. We will meet in Chanahon about 8:30a and ride west for a dough nut and coffee. I-55 and IL Rte. 6 plan on about 2.5 hours. We will discuss the recent events of this past week. Really hope you can join. Thanks.

See you at I-55 and IL Rt 6 at 8:30am Sun folks for our memorial ride. I stopped by Conrad's HD/Buell today and they sold 3 Buells today. There are three 1125Rs left discounted to $6200 each, an 1125CR @ 6200, an XB12XT @ 9200, a Firebolt and a Lighting also at about $6000. What a travesty to see Buell going away! I an not happy with HD. |

I'm not going to make the ride tomorrow morning. I am a wussy girl. It is only going to be 36 at 8 AM and that is just too cold for me. I will probably just go for a ride around here in the afternoon when it is warmer. I would love to see you guys. Have fun |

It was a little chilly first thing in the morning (29 deg). But it did warm up and turned into a nice day. The ride to and from Starved Rock was fun. I learned some new roads to the rock. I hope everybody made it home OK. I felt better about the Buell thing after the ride. |

I did get to ride both Saturday and Sunday to my last instructor courses for the season. I was out there in spirit and the next ride to the Rock count me in! With prices that low, I may just load up a credit card after all. Let my kids pay off the national debt and trade deficet. Ride well to live, live to Ride well KwK |

Buellers, Tomorrow night (Oct 28) is the last Wednesday Night Ride for the season at IL HD. Let's show our respect for the support IL HD/Buell has given us over the years by joining them in the season finale! It would be great to have as many Buells joining them as possible. The weather should be good enough for Bad Weather Bikers. The rain will end in the morning so the weather will be perfect for a Fall spin. Note the time change for the ride. We leave at 7 tomorrow.

WCC'rs, Wed. Night Ride is a great way for the Buell team to display our support for IL H/D and all they have done for the club. Count me in and I am dying to see Tim's new CR, well done Tim. Ride well to live, live to ride well Keith K |

Tim, Congrats on that new 1125CR, and thanks again for your business! Guys, availability on the remaining Buells is shrinking fast, don't end up with the "shoulda, coulda, woulda, 's" Cause when they're gone, they're gone, and you'll never have another chance to get a brand new bike with full warranty at these prices.

WCC'rs, Nice night for a ride on the Wed night IL HD event. About 50 bikes with three Buells along for the ride. A newer owner Steve with his partner Ashley participated and expressed interest in attending the club meeting next Thursday. See you all there! Ride well, Keith K |

I could not get out of Nashville earlier. I landed at Midway at 6:30. Not enough time to get home and back to the ride. Wish I could have made it. Tim II |

Tim II, I might be interested in a ride Sunday morning into early afternoon. I was actually thinking about riding out to Starved Rock along my backroad route (at times twisty) before all the leaves are gone. Let me know if you are interested. |

Hi Curt, Sunday will work for me and Starved Rock sounds good. What time do you want to meet and where? I would be coming from Indiana so I can meet most anywhere along the route towards the Rock. Hey Tim (wrong36), this could be a good time to show off the new ride. How about it? You know we will be talking about you if you don't go. I will continue to taunt you! |

Tim II, Curt, Tell me when you are departing, and from where as I too would love to ride along to the Rock via the twisty route. One day I will remember how to find that route on my own. Sent me a voicemail, or call at 708 261-7187. Thanks, Keith K |
