2006 St. Patty's Day Parade

[Kim-n-Dean]

Hey Ralph,

If you wanna ride, I can drive my truck with the banner. I wanna do the parade, just don't wanna risk another clutch.

We could also put people in the back that don't have/want a ride.

Maybe it's a stupid idea, but I could also pull a 20' flat bed trailer with race bikes strapped on and peeps waving like fools...

[Spiderman]

(BTW If someone cant make it I'd be happy to borrow your bike since Dave will be stunting the SV and I WONT be on the back )

Check with konichd, looks like he's offering a bike up, and I'm pretty sure Ralph is set on driving the truck:

If you want Ralph you can borrow the ZX-10 if you like?

I'm in. XL shirt, and a XS or sm (if they don't have XS) for passenger.

No XS, but they do have kids sizes. You want me to look into that?

Hey Ralph,

If you wanna ride, I can drive my truck with the banner. I wanna do the parade, just don't wanna risk another clutch.

Like I said, I'm pretty sure Ralph is set on driving his truck, but I'll let you guys work that out between you two.

We could also put people in the back that don't have/want a ride.

That's the plan, regardless of who's truck is up front.

Maybe it's a stupid idea, but I could also pull a 20' flat bed trailer with race bikes strapped on and peeps waving like fools...

Two things:
1) Does anybody even have a 20' flatbed trailer for us to use?
2) And more importantly, we're only registered for the parade as 1 truck and 30 bikes (no trailer).

Donna and I are in, but we'll be driving the truck this year so don't reserve us a spot for the bikes (unless you need a vehicle spot for that too). I think we're both 'L' shirts.

If you want Ralph you can borrow the ZX-10 if you like?

Thanks for the offer, but we'll be in the truck this time so Bob can ride for a change.

i think that'd be an excellent idea actually, maybe get the calendar girls up on there eh that is if any AREN'T riding their own bikes in the parade. or for laughs some guys can pose as the calendar girls, make it a kid tote and throw all the runts in there, or something.... it can be highschool all over again and we can vote for best improved rider or best ass! (cough, Marilou, cough)


EDIT: nevermind i just saw spidey's response

[AshliRider44]

I think I'd be a little skittish on the ZX-10 dont mean to sound picky or anything, but I'd be alot more comfortable on a 600 or SV... I'm gonna see if our roommate will let me take his SV since he never rides it anyway--- damn I need to buy another bike

Ummm, yeah. That's why I offered...

Doesn't make much sense to offer, then have to hunt one down.

I didn't know you had a 20' flatbed trailer.

Had you said
... 'I could also pull my 20' flat bed trailer'
instead of
... "I could also pull a 20' flat bed trailer"

well, that would have made a world of difference.

[Mel]

Spidey: Yes on the kid sizes...I am not sure what the sizes run, but she is 4 now (so something between a 4 and a 6 should be fine).
And Ralph...if you are taking people in the truck, can Richard ride in the back in case kiddo wants to bail off the bike?

[Scribbler]

I'd like to partcipate this year. XL Tee. May or may not have a passenger (I'll update if I do).

[Spiderman]

(I'll update if I do).

[Cleveland]

Me too! XL shirt.

[PrillerGrrl]

Count me in!

I wear a Men's Medium for T-shirt or Unisex.

See Y'all there.

Katie

[Greywolf]

I wouldn't mind showing off my new wheels. :P Sign me up. As for the shirt, I'm a mens small.

[CBRChick]

K... make mine a medium bobby boy

[rforsythe]

Yes, mel.

[Spiderman]

I wanna do the parade, just don't wanna risk another clutch.

Hey Dean, I just found out that pocketbikes are allowed, if you want to save your clutch.

[iam4u2nv]

Put me in as tentative - via pocket bike. (I want to give it a good once over to make sure it can take it)
Shirt XXL
Let the cameras try to pass up a shot of a 250+ pound man on a pocket bike - that funny $hit right there.

[rforsythe]

I wonder how many pocketbikes will even make it to the end...

[iam4u2nv]

Mine (we call it my sons) is a "mid" size and I removed all electric junk and so the only prob I see is overheating or running out of gas. If one does fail it can be tossed in the back of the truck easy enough.

[Spiderman]

If one does fail it can be tossed in the back of the truck easy enough.

Or towed by another bike!

[Keyser Soze]

Lemme borrow that pocket bike of yours Bob..the TL isn't quite streetable yet

I have to update my thread - the pocketbike is under contract. Sorry.

[Keyser Soze]
