Eric, I open my pictures in MS Paint and resize them under the stretch/skew function. Then save. If you have a picture that is 1MB, change it to 25% x 25% and it should make it small enough to fit on the Badweb. Oh yeah, it was nice meeting you too. Come ride with us anytime. Drake |

Wow guys, that looks like a nice ride you've got coming up! Wish I was in town for one more weekend! I'll be heading back on Thursday if all goes well tomorrow with the load tests. Nice pics Sam, the pleasure was all mine. Thanks again, I'll let you know when I head back again. It does look like we won the contract for another 5 cranes on the base, so maybe in another month or two I'll be back. Ewuls01, I use photoshop to shrink my pics down, it helps keep the resolution high while making the pictures small enough to not use too much bandwidth. Just use the "save for web" option. Y'all take it easy and keep it on one wheel! Bart |

That is a twin, I'm looking for a CB350-4. The IL4 looks like a baby CB750. Thanks for looking for me though, I'm sure I'll find one, one of these days. B |

I won't be able to go on the ride Lauren has planned out, so who wants to take a shorter ride. |

Talked to Topeka HD today. They offically have a Brag group, not sure when the offical announcement will be made. Sounds like it will be a lot of fun. |

How many members? Those big-group rides are fun. This last one made me wish I had a helmet cam. |

I don't think they have any yet, he said they have not announced it yet but had told a few customers. They said they would send me an email once they roll it out. |

I'll be down for a ride on Saturday. Only problem is that my registration expires tomorrow! I'm moving in with Cristy May 1st, so I really don't want to go through the hassle of registering my bike in MO when I'm moving to KS a month later. Decisions, decisions. If I hadn't gotten that ticket in my cage I would have the money to switch everything over without any problems. I'm probably going to end up spending at least $175 on that ticket if I can get them to drop it to a non-moving violation when I appear on 4/12. |

Let's see here...Loren's ride is about 150 miles...divided by 70 miles per hour...equals about 2 hours. Shorter Ride than that? Come on, stop being a wussy! Lets all get together for the ride on Saturday, if you can make it. Who cares if we have to start at a dealership. Sheesh... |

I agree with Drake....you can make it. If it makes you feel better, it shows them how much business they are missing.... just be there. |

The ride is about getting together and riding & having fun. Larry, sorry if you have a schedule conflict. I know how that is at time. I will miss cracking jokes with you. |

I would like to grab some coffee and a light breakfast before the ride. Would anybody care to meet somewhere at around 0800ish? Those that don't wish to socialize at the dealership could pick an alternate start/endpoint, but use the same route and meet up with the group along the way. I was planning to start at the dealership, but I have no desire to end there since it is a rather boring ride from there back to Gardner. I would rather end at a place where I can get some decent food anyway.

Lee I'm up for breakfast. Fiorella's Jack Stack BBQ is on Holmes at 135th which would be good for lunch, but I'm open to anything. |

Lowflyer-I would be interested in some coffee/breakfast. How about the Starbucks at 135th and Blackbob? Also, my previous post was only directed at people that may not go on the ride because of the dealership involvement. (Not you Larry!) It should be cool. I think Jeff and Harley Stunts is going to be stunting there for the 2nd Grand Opening party, too. |

My ol' lady needs to work Sat. morning...What time is Jeff's deal going on? Maybe I can meet you guy's when you get back in town for lunch and then check out Jeff's show... |

If I remember right from last year, Jeff had two shows. One at 1pm and the other at 3pm. I will get ahold of Chris and check it out. Larry, do you want me to see if Kristin can watch Sierra Saturday morning? She could play with the new pup... |

Jeff's show is at 1:00p.m. Sat. |

Starbucks might be a little too light for me. I'll have to load up to compensate for my low center of gravity; otherwise I won't be able to lean. How about Perkins on 135th and I35? I am down for Jack Stack's at lunch. |

So where at the dealership is everyone meeting up? It seems like last year it was packed full of bikes. And Jack Stack sounds awesome! I haven't told any of you this yet but... The wife is a vegetarian so I'll jump at the chance to go out for some BBQ! Erik |

Oh you should have stayed with us last weekend then Erik, Famous Daves was soooo gooooood. Not sure if I am going or not yet (not because of the dealership) don't really know what my plans are for the weekend. But right now I don't see anything other then going for a nice 150 mile ride. Personally I think we should bump it up to 250. |

I think we should make it a target of getting back to the dealership by 1pm to see the stunt show, if it works. |

Jeff isn't doing his jump is he Sam? That's all I really wanted to see, otherwise I would rather ride then walk around and watch the stunts (I can watch him stunt anytime, but riding time is valuable right now). |

I wanted to stay for famous Dave's but I had already skipped out on most of the work I was supposed to do so I had to bail. I'm with Drake, I want to see the stunts! Drake where did you get that rain suit again? I think you said it was on shawnee mission and i-35 but I have a short term memory problem. Erik |

Why do you guys meet up so damn early to ride. That is my main concern with the long ride. Don't any of you guys party anymore, or are you all to old? You start talking about 8:00 am on a Saturday and you've pretty much lost me. What time is everyone meeting at Gail's? I might try to make it. I don't like the dealership, but that wouldn't be why I won't go on the ride. If I'm hungover, I'm sleeping. |
