Who needs the flag next?
« on: April 01, 2011, 12:17:39 AM »
I have been bad about getting the flag to the next person.  There must be a rally coming up.  SemperGumby, did you post something about a rally on April 29?  

I've also got a flag I made to go to Europe and Australia, and other parts of the world.  Lucky Lou, do you want it to take to some rallys?  

Let me know.  You can PM me or e-mail me with your address and I'll get it right off!

Cheers!

I don't know about April, but Memorial Day Weekend a few of us are going to try (well, that would be me) and make it to a rally in WV.

For me it will be 1 long day's ride (8+ hours) to the rally after working the night before, then I would sit around all day Sunday in recovery mode and then ride home on Monday.

But don't send the flag to me, since I am a pretty big maybe on this one.

Thanks for the offer Melina if i had been on the ball i would have had it for this weekend but unless you have wings its too late for that.
I will pm you my address when i have a firm date for another shin dig.
With the exception of Barry the UK members have been a bit quiet lately ? maybe i should rattle a few cages and arrange a meet or tie in something with the BMW riders or the Classic bike club. We were supposed to be having another "Pooh Do" but thats gone quiet and Steve H has dropped off the map.

I believe he is referring to the little red LED that the early R65s had as a redline indicator on the tachometer faces!  (Steve's new handle on B'works is "Rev Light"...)

It stems from  the www.gabfesters.org.uk forum where he lost an argument about the R65 having the said "Rev Light"

Hey Rob!  Then I won't send it to you.   ;)  Looks like Bill needs it for the Georgia rally anyway.  I'll mail it out to him on Monday.

Lou, too bad I didn't get back here earlier and you would have had it for this weekend.  I'd fly right over with it but I don't have a jet.      :D  The flag is ready to go around the world though.  So, you'd better let me send it to you soon or it may end up in Australia first.    8-)  Oh, wait.  They're just going into their fall and winter aren't they.  Well, Lou, you'd better let me go ahead and get it in the mail to you so at least it will be on the right continent when you need it.  Just PM me your address.  It takes a bit of time for mail to get over there so I'd like to get it on its way.  

Yay!  A new season of riding and rallys is on its way!

The flag has been mailed to Semper Gumby today.  Still have the flag I made to go to other parts of the world.  

I took pictures of them both so we have a record of who has signed.  Just need to download from the camera.

Are we talking about a different flag to the one I have in the UK ?

Who wants that next ?
