M1, sorry we won't get to ride with you to Laguna this year, maybe next year? Ferris |

I sure hope so... I really want to go but Map Quest says it's a 12 hour ride. I just went 450 last weekend and I'll be doing quite a bit more than that for the next AZ Buellers run... I'll need new tires after that most likely. I still want to go, I think it's just maybe a bit much for me in one month... I don't think my ride schedule really would have fit in with yours either. I planned on riding out of here at 5:00 on Friday and trying to be in Monterey by race time. I would have spent Saturday night at the track and rode home Sunday morning. That's a LOT of riding for me in three days . I probably would have found a picnic table to sleep on Friday night . The wooden ones are actually comfortable . |

wow, that would certainly be a tough way to do Laguna, and the epicness of the event really deserves some quality time. Bartimus knows the way here to the 'Dome -- maybe ride (or drive) in with him next year. you guys could overnight here and we could ride up the coast together. y'all have a safe ride for the TF redux, i sure wish we could join you.

Eliz and I have booked at the same place we stayed last year, the Paint Pony Lodge. I'm really pumped about the ride and am looking forward to seeing everyone. Let's have another head count, shall we? Eliz and I Ski Bart M1 Brian (Tucson) K, I count six bikes. Am I missing anyone? Bart, did the New Mexico crowd say they were coming out? JWZ too bad you had to drop, we'll look forward to catching up with you another time... We won't be seeing you guys in Superior, so don't wait for us. We're going up to Showlow a day early to look at land.

Well my old GSXR is sold, and my wife said that I need to buy a new bike, well an XB12R is at the top of the list, so who is a good Buell dealer here in PHX?? And like everyone else, do I want a 9 or a 12, road them both, liked them both, But I like red or black better then blue or white, so the 12 wins. |

Charlie, Why did you get a room at another Hotel? Al from Tucson will be rooming with me at the Days Inn. I think that's where everyone is staying. GSXR, I saw a red '04 XB12r at Arrowhead HD/Buell for $6999 the other day. You might want to check them out. |

I was trying to get a hold of AL to see if he was coming up. That's great news. I'll have a riding buddy on Saturday up to Los Hermanos. Are you serious about that 12R for only $6999?? I may have to ride up and trade my 9 for it! Hmmmmmmmmmmm..... |

One reason only... Cashing in bonus points for a free room. I'm a service member remember, I'm broke! LOL! Don't worry, I'll bring beer to your room K! |

OK, change 2. Eliz doesn't want to cash in the points. We'll be staying with you all at the Days Inn. Oh, and I'll still bring beer to your room |

SO a B! My boss just told me I can't have the 19th off. My trusty co-hort at the tech bench already has that day and the next two off. Brian - So sorry. I don't think I've been turned down for a day off in four years. Didn't expect that one. Damnit damnit damnit! Maybe I will do Laguna then... Anyone know how much the tickets are? |

The problem is that it's a four hour trip over there... I'd like to though. I hope I didn't cause too much trouble for you. |

No problem what so ever. Already changed the reservation. Too bad you can't make it. |

OK, now it's 5 bikes down from 7. Sorry you can't make it M1, was looking forward to meeting you. Bart, any news from the New Mexico crowd? |

6...you forgot Al (his handle is Belookin) from Tucson and either his X-1 or his S2. I'd imagine he'll be bringing his S2. It's one gorgeous bike. |

"Brrring it on Wycked". I'd like to have a few Martinis with ya and see what that XB can do! Brian needs a room-mate! You XB'ers would have fun together! Brian's afraid of the dark-you know! He could use your assistance! All kidding aside-would like to ride with you again. I owe you a few drinks, so come on back and collect them. Brian Call me and let me know what time you want to leave on Saturday morning. Let's give ourselves two hours to get up there. I've put in new fork seals on the S-2 and working on attaching a pair of soft saddlebags to the rear. Tore my left hand grip off the other night-need to reglue it. Otherwise-the S-2 is ready to go! |
