    We could do that. My ex has one that is just collecting dust in the garage. It'll do about 60Mph, just needs a little tlc.

    Just talked to the ex, he said that I could have the pocket bike, but it does need a lot of work. Exhaust, new bearings, tire, etc. If I can get it fixed and have someone bring it down to the parade I may just do that.

    As long as you have liability insurance on the pocket bike, yeah go for it.

    If staging is 10am, I think we'll meet for breakfast at about 8am-ish. We will depart for the staging area at 9:30.

    Oh, and I'm gonna highly recommend sunscreen for this event. Last time most of us pulled our gear off & just wore our t-shirts. I remember getting really burned afterwards. So if you're planning on do'n the parade comfortably then I'd def recommend some sunscreen for you & your passenger!

    See my previous post.

    I got insurance on my pitbike through my statefarm agent. I'm sure they will insure a pocketbike.

    Just for that you get a mid-driff cutoff with ruffles.

    They will be green.







    I actually considered long sleeve shirts for this year, but pretty much abandoned the idea after we couldn't get sponsorship (not even for the short-sleeved tees). Long sleeve shirts would've been about $5 more per shirt.

    As for the design, I was thinking of putting the text on the front for a change, and have the BIG CSC logo on the back. This is (approximately - I've made some touch-ups since I made this jpg) what the design on the front will be:

         - 2006 Yamaha R1 (racebike)

    Oh oh oh!!! I'll take it! I'll definitely hook up the brews fer payback. Let me know what you drink.

    Of course this is all depending on if someone else has grabbed the spot or not.

    I think you can use it to spray into your tire smoke to turn it green...

    Some grocery stores USED to carry that...but I imagine that any of the hobby stores will have it... so check out Hobby Lobby or Michael's for your best bet! I wanna see pics too!

    Better check the OSHA regs on that, buddy. Don't want them attacking your bike.

    "A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
