Re: Official "Who is comming to the Shindig" thread!!!

Just made hotel reservations for Jeremy and Myself.

Headed to the site to register, and noticed the "attendee list" isn't updated. Jeremy has supposedly registered, but isn't listed on there. I'll be paying with credit card here shortly this afternoon.

Adam, you took the "cop speech" the first year......Pope took it the second year......so, it's either me or Ian. And since I dealt with the "parking kids", I guess it's Ian's.

That was easy. :rotf:

I'll take the heat from the cops.. :D

We might have a few LE folks in the house attempting to elicit some professional courtesy consideration...

I am working on being there. I might have to throw down the "work" trump card excuse if required, but am planning on driving ol' reliable down.

Daron needs to be there been a few years since his last sighting.

Bringing my brother with me, he can be the LE scape goat for us. He is the only one I know of to get pulled over, cop finds his stash of green leaves that some people use, and cop by law has to let him go free and clear and had to leave the leaves with my brother. Classic story you might be able to get him to tell.

24hrs in a truck with dobrick, jeremy, and myself in 1 weekend. HMMM this is going to be interesting for sure. If Jeremy starts to stop at all the truck stops I might need to just unload the ty from the trailer and drive myself.

Heading to register now myself.

The truck is on the road again and I am definitely still planning to be there with the wifey. Just have to swap the radiator out and I am golden. I want to make sure I can get a couple of shirts from the event. What is the latest I can confirm to ensure I get them?

One other thing. I have never been in a Sy/Ty. I dying to feel a boosted launch. Anyone?

The rumors are true. The FAST/GAST crew have our own Pocket Bike Militia and yes, we have been in trouble by the cops, hotel owners, and burger king. Pretty much, we ride hard and ruthless. Doesnt matter if its the afternoon or in the early morning hours.

If you show up with more bikes, the shenanigans will just be that much more applified. Last time out, Hood and Pope were lit and the cops arrived. Mike M. took a hard core yelling from the hotel owner who was the one who called the cops.

Ahhhh....that picture of Pope. I haven't looked at that thing in a while now and it still makes me laugh! Reminds me of Super Mario Brothers 2 when you have to squat to pull things out of the ground. I was VERY intoxicated that night....as indicated by that goofy looking grin on my face. I'll probably look like that again this year.

Adam.....I like the tires they're putting on the Cags now. A lot like the rear Chopper tire's tread pattern. And you may wanna consider mounting some pegs on the rear wheel through-bolt. Like we did on my cousin's cag (below):



Puts your center-of-gravity lower, let's you lean with more stability, and makes for a more comfy ride (IMO).

Dude, we had a blast that night. Ive got some mini cones I'll be bringing, but we'll have to look for some full size ones to borrow. The treaded tires rule.... Popes is scary to ride when its wet with the slicks on it. I almost took a few good falls on his going around the BK parking lot.... then of course, I did laid down the chopper at the hotel the first time.

Ive got a top end shudder/cut out at WOT I need to fix. Going to try a double reed mod using the stocker and the new graphite reed. Also might drill out the petcock for better fuel delivery or adjust the float forks a bit since I might have them bent to much and going lean.

Ive actually gotten braver now riding...I'll lean in like Pope does. Making enough power now that I can pop the front wheel and cat walk which Ive gone over the back a few times, heh.

Sounds like I need to commandeer a couple we have sitting around. Thanks for the heads up!
