Dang! My buddy's place is a block north from that new shopping center. He's got a new house in the subdivision on the Duke golf course. He's also the asst superintendent at the golf course on HWY 238, Southern Dunes. He says he takes that road west when ever he heads out to Glamis. I'll have to ride up for work one of these weeks and then go investigate. Hopefully I'll get the bike back this weekend. If not I'll have to raid Al's carport and steal his X1!!! Hey Bart, how'd it feel being the only Buelligan? Did ya get any marinara sauce on ya? Ciao Bella! |

M1, "ME TOO!" Brian, Just be very careful on W. Maricopa. There's a reason they call it Dead Cow Road. If you're not contributing to the pile of carcasses, you must watch for the ones that have landed in the middle of your lane! I counted 7 dead cows last trip though!!! |

That or constipation... LOL! Naw, that's the look I get when the crash alarm goes off. I never know what it's going to be. Could be some old lady bumped her head in flight from Phoenix; or I could have a DC-10 doing somersaults down the runway! |

Hey you guys, FYI, I created a calender on MSword for myself, (too cheap to buy one!) and included many pictures of this past years events. All BUELL related, so if you want a copy let me know, and I'll print one up for ya. At least until the print cartridge gives up. OH, and just spoke with Brian on the phone. He's only going to stop for one beer tonight at Callahans, and that will be early, around 1600hrs. So looks like tonights weekly meeting will be postponed until tomorrow, maybe? I'm gonna zip down there and have one with him, gotta break in the Diablo's on the S1W. LOL, there's a story for the quick tales. I strapped the two tires to my back, and rode to Arrowhead HD this morning in the rain. You should have seen the look on their faces when I pulled in soaking wet, with those tires strapped to my back. Wish I had a picture! Colder that heck out there today with all this rain. But what the heck, it's only water!!! Ya know, not a Harley in sight, what's with those wussy bikers anyway? Can't ride in the rain? I know, I know, they just had more sense. My hands are still thawing out as I "try" to type. LOL Oh, they've had this cherry 2001 X1 with the Nuclear Blue frame sitting out front for about a year now, saw a "Managers special" sign on it today... Only $5995. ha ha ha I guess it'll be sitting there for awhile, eh? It's all good, as long as your riding! Have a Buelltiful day!!! |

Bart got your voicemail but was not able to call you back. Thats what I get for not putting my phone on the charger. Its all good, I could have used a beer, but had some personal stuff to deal with. Not sure what kind of available I will be for the next week or so. |

Aah yes, the discharged phone. We have all suffered from that error. The beer was good, the show even better. You missed out on the two babes making out with each other, pounding down shots of Jagger, and then shnapps. These gals were hammered! Not to mention the show the weather put on for us. A Tornado alert? WTF? This is the desert! I had to roll the bike under cover when the hail hit though. And sweet Michelle even offered to let me roll the bike into the bar, what a gal. Keep your dance card open next week my friend. I only have two weeks before I go to work for a real company, once again. With new rubber on the S1W, I'm looking to scrub them up a bit! Keep that battery charged!!! |

Do you have any of the take offs left? I am in desperate need of a front tire... |

you talking to me? are YOU talking to me? I ax you, are you talking to me? Yes, I do still have them, and you are more than welcome to them, both front and rear. They ARE the race compounds. I have them here at the apartment, let me know when you want to pick them up. |

You haven't seen my tires lately Don, both are in sad shape. Its the wobbles from the cupping on the front that are driving me nuts and cashflow at the moment is screwed up. Bart call you later about them |

that's exactly why I hate riding on freeways and interstates, Charlie. |

Bart what's your agenda for Saturday or Sunday? Weather is calling for heavy rain but wondered if you wanted to head down to Casa Grande and check out the XR... |

I've got a class I have to attend Friday night, Saturday and Sunday. I'm glad it's raining, when I look out the windows, I won't feel so bad about being inside... Had a great ride today though. The weather was great, and the burgers huge at the Tortilla flats saloon. My buddy was funny poking along on his R1, I kept trying to "tease" him into wicking it open on the way out US60, LOL. Dang kid is sticking to his break-in pretty good. |

Brian...I sent you a PM last week! I saved a copy of it: Performance H.D. 3383 N Richey Tucson, AZ 85716 795-5910 ask for Gary They are a little hole in the wall shop, old biker guys. But they do have a Buell mechanic that owns an XB. Hey Al, tomorrow sounds good for a ride to Superior. Anyone else want to meet up? Leave Tucson around 10:00? Kobie? Wycked? Anyone in Phoenix wanna hook up? |

Hey all, I posted over in the Blast race series idea forum. How many of you Az Buellers would be up for getting into a Blast and trying to do it at Firebird? I think it's a great idea. They can be had cheaply. I think if everyone started locally, a series could be put together from there. Just a thought, I'd do it. |

Is anyone up for riding tomorrow?? Am I gonna have to go by myself?? How far is Superior to Phoenix? I may run that direction to go eat and watch the game if one of you guys want to meet up. I've got the all day pass and no one wants to play!! Man do I feel like an only child. WAAAAAA!!! |

I have a 208GP on the front of my bike now so what time you want to meet in Superior? |

Brian, The early game is at 11. The late game is at 230. Phoenix is about an hour away. Don't worry. When football is over I'll be the one bugging you to ride! |

Alrighty then...no Al? no Dropnstyle? I'll leave Tucson between 9:00 and 9:30. I think that'll put me in Superior around 11:00. Oh dang...Santana Moss just scored. Come on Chargers...do something!! |
