[DavidofColorado]

Don't ask why I have these but there are a lot on my camera. I even have a few of inside Ralph's truck. I guess that is what I get for not paying the photographer.
Next lesson: Take good pictures.

[DevilsTonic]

No kidding, i was looking for a Vador too! Other people took pictures too, i can't wait to see them. Tamira...*cough


I had a great time, guys. It was good to see you guys again.

[JustSomeDude]

Thought I'd make this thread for people to post pictures and junk. I'll repost my pics from the other thread in a bit. But here's the video from the news coverage for now...

Kablamo! :)

[Matty]

wish i was there... would have been cool to do a nice lil rolling circle burnout.

[Timmay]

aaawwww total failure Brian, whats up with that? I still had your back.

[DevilsTonic]

It was a good time. Nice to meet some new people. I wanna see the damn pictures that the rest of you took. :)

Looks like there are a few threads. Maybe one of our mods could merge the two for us.

If I had known you needed a Vader...

Here's my Vader.

Some guy who happened to walk by and was instantly pounced on by CSC camera holders. :) There must have been a Star Wars entry in the parade. I saw Jango and Boba Fett and several Jedi and Sith.

[barrett1015]

Next time i will bring my quad so i can do so slow wheelies in the little bit of space that we have to work with.... we can consider it a sport bike for a day right?????

Hell why not, we had the victory there too.

[Aracheon]

Thank you for recording this!

[CBRSue]

That was so much fun! :) Now I just have to get out and wash the ol' CBR as she's sportin' some evidence of the burnout action! :lol:

Here is a slide show of pictures from the pre-parade fun:

[CBRSue]

Thanks for posting the pics! they're great!

You bet! I need to get a better camera though. It was great meeting you, and I hope to see you out on a ride again! :)

[rforsythe]

Thanks to everyone who came out to ride! It was a great time.

Also thanks again to Faster for all that they did!

[madvlad]

Man I really wish I could've made this.... perhaps next year!

[64BonnieLass]

JSD...Thank you for posting the vid. And thank you to all the others for all the pics. I know I had a blast last year, and it looks like you guys had a blast this year.

What a fun time it is huh??? Whoo Hoo!!! :)

[swademaster]

Blake and I had a good time as well. Of course, the first burnout I've done in a few years get caught on video.

[DavidofColorado]

2 things. I already had a thread going but if you needed to start your own that's fine. It wasn't dialup friendly.
And second. We should have had the storm trooper do the hang loose and shocker hand sign.

[64BonnieLass]

David,
Ralph or one of the other mods will merge the threads when they can. Sunday is a day of rest though. :)

Great pics on your end too David. The threads will be merged then it can be a St. Patty's Day pics of happiness thread.

[DavidofColorado]

Should have been there Bonnelass. It was a lot of fun. Even the waiting was interesting. (to a point)

Free clothes. Red Bull (sugar free [I was poisoned])

Here is to the thread o happyness.

[towneh]

i regret missing this event. my bat-tree decided to die an untimely death. i ended up working a few hours of OT which will cover the replacement cost. oh well, maybe next year ?!?! i'm glad everyone else enjoyed the festivities.

[Raptor]

The family and I had such a kick ass time with y'all!

Thanks for everything, Faster! Breakfast was awesome too.

[~Barn~]

Impressive... most impressive.

Dirk

:spit:

Great to see everybody yesterday. Special thanks to DK/Jeanna and Bueller who let me twist their rides for a few minutes. Glad everybody had a fun time.

Also, thanks to Faster for the chow in the early AM. If you haven't gone to see the sweet space they have now, you owe it to yourself. Their shop is awesome.

Thanks everybody. :up:

[CBRSue]

Blake and I had a good time as well. Of course, the first burnout I've done in a few years get caught on video.

And caught all over my CBR!!! The splash back from your burnout was well worth it though, as it was quite the parade crowd pleaser. :)

It was great to meet you and your son - he's a super cool kid! 8)

[DavidofColorado]

Thanks for everyone that helped getting this going. It went together seamlessly and went off without a hitch.

Did anyone take pics of the post parade lunch?

[konichd]

Good time, that StormTrooper guy was awesome! :lol:

[Devaclis]

I have a few pics. Give me a bit to upload them.

[konichd]

Awesome!

[Devaclis]

I was laughing so hard because everyone at the parade had their damn shirts on backwards. Bunch of Tards. I was the only one that know how to dress hahaha:

Sure the helmet has MFTAS, a comlink and advanced breathing filters but is it DOT/Snell approved? :)

[MetaLord 9]

See, if he was smart, he'd holster his blaster on the left side so he can still work the throttle & brake while blasting tauntauns. (and yes, I'm a nerd.)

[Devaclis]

That dude in the Stormtrooper costume was pulling some MAD tail. Even the strippers from Shotgun Willies were all over him.

Chicks love geeks.

(hmmmm, where are my autographed Captain James T. Kirk underpants?)

[MetaLord 9]

Yeah, but I think Timmy still got the better deal! Chick got a ride, held on real tight, and he didn't even have to wear plastic underware to get her to do it!

[Devaclis]

I got video of the Hula girls too :)

[MetaLord 9]

Which one? Chubs or Ugs?

[Aracheon]

Funny you say that. In the movie, all the Stormtroopers holsters were on the left. The blaster Lucas used is a WWII British Sterling L2A3 and the mag. was in the way if hung on the right.

[MetaLord 9]

I've been out geeked!

[Devaclis]

Dean will kick you in the nuts when it comes to Star Wars :)

Chris.... <heavy breath>... Dean is your father.

[dirkterrell]

Reminds me of the time we had a space-themed day at the U. of Florida museum when I was in grad school. I was strolling around in a Darth Vader outfit and this little kid comes up to me and asks me where Luke Skywalker is. Feeling mischievous, I said "I killed him." and he ran off crying. Hey, I was taking the bad-guy thing seriously. http://www.boulder.swri.edu/%7Eterrell/images/goofy.gif

Dirk

[MetaLord 9]

NOOO!!! That's impossible!!


wait, doesn't that mean that I've got a hot sister somewhere that I'm secretly in love with but not really?

[~Barn~]

Yeah man, I don't know. I only saw the new ones.

[Devaclis]

[dirkterrell]

You know, some of the lines from Star Wars are better if one word is replaced by "pants", as in "I find your lack of pants disturbing." and "Your are unwise to lower your pants." Full list here (http://www.keepersoflists.org/index.php?lid=1906).

Dirk

[Devaclis]

But I was going to Tashi Station to pick up some power pants!

[MetaLord 9]

These aren't the pants you're looking for

DirkWe were requested to be at the "Investors" night at the opening of the Space Odyssey wing at the Denver Museum and then the following weekend for the grand opening to the public.

I'm in my Vader and a kid comes up to me and acts like he's trying to get me to chase him. So I did. I took a few quick steps towards him and he screamed bloody murder. The whole museum was trippin. This little pussy cried for almost an hour. I felt like shit, but it was funnier than hell!! His father should have kicked his ass for being such a girl!!

[dirkterrell]

But I was going to Tashi Station to pick up some power pants!

You can waste time with your pants when your chores are done.

[MetaLord 9]

Darth Vader says "You're Gay!"

Made the Kessel Run in less than twelve pants?
Good, good, let the pants flow through you!
A long time ago, in pants far, far away...

ok, I gotta stop, I'll keep doing this all day and get no work done otherwise. And I'm not gonna cheat by looking at the list!

[Jason ON]

No kidding, i was looking for a Vador too! Other people took pictures too, i can't wait to see them. Tamira...*cough


I had a great time, guys. It was good to see you guys again.

She was using my camera and I've been lazy.

[Sortarican]

A little cool on the ride down but warmed up for a perfect day.
Thanks Ralph, Donna, Faster, and all those who set this up and attended.
Great time gang, post more pics.

(And sorry, but I couldn't resist this one Brian.)

[Devaclis]

^^^ LOL poor Brian hahahaha AAAAHHHHHHAHAHAHA I just pee'd a little hahaha . Sorry B, it was funny they caught that :)

[~Barn~]

So what happened exactly?

[Aracheon]

Aracheon, your avatar is the stuff dreams are made of :D



:lol: :lol:

I really need to chop some TIE Fighter wings into that thing. :D

[Sortarican]

So what happened exactly?

The camera came in for a closeup but Brian's tire was warm and sticky from previous burnouts and he couldn't break it loose.
Brian was majorly bummed.

[~Barn~]

Ah.... bummer. Timing is everything.

[Matty]

Brian was majorly bummed.
you can still do a burnout with warm and sticky tires... Brian is just a n00b.

[Spiderman]

Glad to hear the parade went well! A Huge THANKS to Ralph & Donna for picking up the slack when I had to pack up & leave the country. Glad also that the weather turned out nice.

I attended the St. Patty's Day parade in Montreal on Sunday with my daughter, and apparently it was one of the warmer parades they've had in years, at a nice balmy 31 degrees (yes, Farenheit!), and only a light snow. Here are a few pics from mine:

[Devaclis]

Wow, Bob, she is gettin' BIG!!!

[Sortarican]

Is that your little one Bob?
(Cuter than a trunkload of kittens, she is.)

And someone should have slashed the tires on those damn Mont-re-all Can-eh-dee-anne's float.
GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!

[Spiderman]

Ya, that's Vanessa - she turned 7 in December. :D

[~Barn~]

What did she grow? 1..?... 2 feet?

[Spiderman]

No, she was born with both feet. :lol:

[Sortarican]

No, she was born with both feet. :lol:

Just shot milk out my nose.

[~Barn~]

That was pretty good.

Nice Jeff, I guess you won't be showing your face at BWW's for a while. :guns:


Yeah I was running take-offs and just did a burnout about 20 seconds earlier, rear tire was nice and sticky, front tire was ice cold, and it just wouldn't break loose for me.


I'm sure there's a technique to break it loose in that situation, but I admit I usually try not to destroy tires. I guess I just don't have those mad stunna skills like Matty. :alien:

[DavidofColorado]

Try and do a burn out with someone on the bike. We all had problems that day.
Dirk did a good job showing off for the crowd.

[Canuck]

GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!

Fucking Eh!!!

[Matty]

I guess I just don't have those mad stunna skills like Matty. :alien:
it's cool.. i still like ya buddy!

[Jason ON]

The pictures from my camera. FYI, the straight ones are the ones I took, all the ones slightly off kilter are the ones Tamira took. :D

I didn't edit, downsize or crop anything, so WYSIWYG.

[pilot]

Good photos there Bob!

Say, I'm seeing a few more helmet heads than in years past. Was it because of the cold or is there a new trend afoot, er, ahead?

[Suki]

who are all those people???? lol, lots of new faces.
