And here we have a few of the soaking wet muts about to raid the clayton mc'ds..... I was glad I found the clicker for that fire place, it would have been a shame it was only for looks.

Looks like everyone had a good time, even it was wet. Just wish I could have been there!! I WILL NOT MISS THE NEXT ONE!!! Even if I have to pull the bikes up there by hand!!

[Big_J]

Let me know next time and maybe we can work together to get there. I have my eye on a 18'or 20' enclosed trailer, I hope to have by the fall rally series we travel.

I got home at 5:30 CST, it sure was nice to see everyone and put faces to the names. I HAD A GREAT TIME, and looking forward to the fall rally.

When you don't remember the night befor, you see your friends the next morning and they say you had a goooood time. LMAO

[GearJammer]

ahhhh.....yes, "those" kinda day afters. Embarrassingly enough, years ago there were a few times when friends would fill me in on the night before & on some of those times, I'd wished I hadn't asked....hehehe.......

Jason:

if you'd prefer, as soon as I figure out how to do so with VBulletin, I can just post up the images.

For now, I'll just post the link:

http://www.rebel250.com/rebelforum/viewtopic.php?t=9850

These are the few pictures I got and a the few that Howard sent me.

Mind if I mirror yours on our site?

I had to look around after all this time; I was curious to see how the place looked with VBulletin.

Very nice!

Congrats!

And spread the word about the T-shirts; I still haven't heard from all the attendees yet!

[Big_J]

Some are still on their travels, but I will see what I can do from here to get all the info on the T's

And your more than wlcome to use the pics from here. Even with the bad weather and shoeless women it was a pretty nice event. I hate the migrain put us out for the latter but, sometimes chit happens.

Definately looking forward to the next one, hopefully a fall one.

[Duke Bushido]

Thanks, for everything!

The guiding, the offers, the pictures--

Thanks for just hangin' out, Hoss!

Thanks for everything!

[Duke Bushido]

Okay,

I know it's not _quite_ done-- still missing a couple of elements--

But I wanted to go ahead and let you know I was getting close.

That is, if you're offer to CAD a cleaned-up version is still out there.

If this works (not sure if VBulletin does IMG code or not), then you'll see what I've got so far:

My Paint-Fu is atrocious. Forgive the "drawing" of the letters.

What I was after with the Banner is the "Rebel" logo as it appears on the breather box of the Classics. The Brass-colored letters are in keeping with those same logos. The rest of the text is in brass both because a single-color is, I'm told, cheaper, and because, what with the numerous fonts (all of which I'm pretty happy with), the continuous color provides a continuity.

So:

What do you think of the basic design?

and

Can you help me out with the layout and Lettering?


As soon as I get two more items:

The outline map of the route (which will go "around" the last two lines: Helen Ga: Who needs the Dragon?)

and the Allgood's round-trip mileage (so I can finalize that bragging-rights blurb), I can get the general layout finished.


Thanks again for everything, J!

[Big_J]

Looks good, I'll start on it this evening, I already have the classic rebel logo (somewhere) in the computer so that should not be any trouble.

Soon as I get something to look at I'll send it over.

[Duke Bushido]

Thanks!

I hope to have the route map faxed from Jack today; if so, I'll get that worked into the layout and post the updated version. After that, I just need Delbert and Marie's total mileage (which I thought they posted on my board somewhere, but I can't find it...).

Thanks again!

[Duke Bushido]

No map yet. Perhaps Wednesday.

[Duke Bushido]

Got the map today. "Course, I forgot it in my desk.....

So maybe some time this weekend I can get it worked into the design...
