Hey, I was happy to meet some of you there. It was a great time too! Well, besides the sunburn I got.

Oh Spiderman, thanks for spraying me with little rubber pieces of you tire, lol.

So you are saying that you didn't get that chic that jumped on the back of your bike, number...

Awesome guys. :yay: Thanks so much for the great pictures.

I hope you guys had loads of fun.

And regardless of being televised or not..you must know how much pleasure you give to the crowd and especially to the children.

I just think it's so cool that you guys are there regardless of tempuratures, and yet how many people LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

Yay!!!

Nice tandem burn out. The CSC group has made the TV coverage in years past. Did they move you guys to the back?

Oh Spiderman, thanks for spraying my with little rubber pieces of you tire, lol.
:oops:

I had some clutch woes at the beginning, thought I wasn't gonna make it thru the parade, but got those straightened out with some adjustments and was able to do more than a few burnouts. :twisted:

I gotta take another pic of my rear tire. Went for a little, relaxing ride Saturday afternoon, and came home to find a BUNCH of steel cords showing thru! :shock:

Did anybody get any video?

Sweet! :up:

Too bad we didn't make it to TV. I heard the TV announcer over the PA as I was doing my burnout in front of the judges stand - was really hoping to see that one on TV. :(

You know why you did not make it on TV?

ALICE was sponsoring the parade.

Snowman

Mon Mar 16th, 2009, 12:06 PM

Go did anyone get the name of that guy in the golf cart with all those official parade buttons, going down the line telling each of us not to do burnouts except in front of the judging stand?

Hey Randell, sorry about the smoke and tire I threw your way:)

Snowman

Mon Mar 16th, 2009, 01:38 PM

Not a problem...
Although I'm still finding bits of rubber in my front brake calipers.

For his complete disregard of the cost of his brand new tire and over heating his Ducati 749 in his gallant effort to entertain the crowd every 50 feet…

I officially nominate rapparee as the winner of the 2009 St. Patrick’s Day Parade CSC Clutch and Tire Roast!!!!!

Go did anyone get the name of that guy in the golf cart with all those official parade buttons, going down the line telling each of us not to do burnouts except in front of the judging stand?

He rolled up to me as we were starting to move and asked if we were "gonna be doing burnouts and stuff, and could I make sure you all didn't do it". I told him I was in the truck and was not going to be getting out just to tell you all to behave, and if he felt strongly about it to go tell you guys himself. Guess he did. :lol: Lot of good it did.

Hey SpiderBob my girl and I got about 20 mins of video at the Parade before the battery gave up on us! And I wonder if it's possible to get together again like that before next year's Parade??? It was awesome to be in a group like that, and the sheer power was like symphony to my ears!!!
