    It's a crew cab long bed. We can fit quite a few people/kids in it. We aren't going to have a float or an extra truck in the back; it costs money for all of that, and it is pretty expensive as it is which Faster Motosports is picking up the tab for so everyone can ride and get shirts for free.

    I'll do a kid count and have Donna start a list of those too just so we know how much room we'll actually have. Some bigger kids may need to ride on bikes if we don't have enough truck space, but it hasn't been a problem in the past.

    Just checking. Thanks.
    I wasn't suggesting we have another truck in the back I was just wondering if there was already plans for one.

    One more question;
    Where do we park our cars before the parade? If there is a place I am fine.

    Why aren't you riding a bike? You signed up to ride a bike in the parade, why are you parking cars? I am confused.

    The point of being in the parade is to ride a bike and to support the club.

    I am willing to ride a bike in the race. But there are 3 people coming and there is only room for 2 on a bike. I will have to take a car to get us all there. If you don't want the car in the parade. Where are we going to park it? I hope this helps? I guess we could all get in the truck on the way to the parade spot but I don't know if that's legal?

    I know that was 2 different questions.
    Where does the parade start at and where does it finish? I know there is a meet up afterwards at the brewery so that's cool.

    We will do a pre-parade breakfast to meet up and head downtown together. Keep an eye out as that gets closer. It will be on your way from the springs to downtown.

    Breakfast is going to be about 2 blocks from there. We'll post the details on that stuff as we get a little closer and know when we have to be staging, etc.

    David regarding your car, something got lost in translation somewhere here. You can only ride a bike in the parade, but are welcome to carry a passenger and/or put a kid or two in the truck with us. Sorry if you thought you could drive your car, but we are a bike club trying to show off bikes. The truck (aside from being a kid/prego transport) will have some CSC/Faster banners hanging off of it, and a cooler with drinks, which is why we bring it.

    There will be places to park your car near the staging area where your wife or someone can leave it, so you can bring the bike. Full details on where to go, when to meet, and where to leave your cage (or even truck/trailer, sometimes people bring their bikes that way) will be sent via PM to everyone who is signed up to ride.

    I never wanted to drive a car in the parade. I just figured I would need it to get the family to the parade. I needed to park it some where.

    I was trying not to make prego jokes so hard since it would have been in bad taste but you did nicely.

    Thanks that's all I wanted to know. I am good now. No more questions from me.

    lol, have i just become the CSC Resident Prego, with my very own truck escort in the parade??? awww, how.. sweet. I should make me a sash to match Randall's CSC Queen sash! lmao!

    Ralph and Donna, Alan will most likely not be riding this year in the parade (I don't think i mentioned it, but not sure if i did or didn't) so he'll probably just ride in the truck also if that's okay.

    Why isn't that skinny bitch riding? I'll say that's probably OK but obviously priority will be given to kids and pregs, so he may have to trot along behind and pretend to pull mad wheelies or something.

    He should ride! We have room for more bikes at the moment. Come on Alan, you don't want to be that guy in the back of the truck that didn't ride, do you? Get on a bike.

    lol, he isn't sure if he wants to ride the WR again and we're trying to sell the GSXR so it will stay away from the clutch burning parade, lmao!

    I'll probably be walking most the time to free up space for the kids, i'm not that fat yet, haha!

    EDIT: Ralph, Alan said to let his skinny ass ride one of your bikes in the parade.
