Jim,

Here's a thought... As a contributing member, I'd sure vote to have the Team Elves account hit up to aid your DULSR (Down-Under LSR) effort, to cover entry fees/expenses and such. Not sure what the Team treasury holds at the moment, but it would be worth looking into, no? : )

Does anyone have any Team Elves stickers? I'm going to try and get the stickers made for the bike in the next couple of weeks, and I'd like to sneak a Team Elves one on there when I put them on ; )

FMJ,

I keep looking at the Snail racing plan. No tools no parts, run the bike, set records, go home. Thats my goal, simplify everything. Went last year and took way too much stuff. Marked everything we didn't use and told the rest of the crew that none of thats coming with us next year. I stripped it down to the one 7x12 trailer and one motorcycle. Sort of nice that we had everything with us at all times. Best of luck in Australia.

Higgins is in the air at the moment. When he gets back we need to talk to him about what he and the Amo boys did to International relations.

Up until now the Australians were a peaceable people.....then we toss this bunch at them!

I can see us being invaded by Australia in retaliation!

Court Mate, you need to ask about the 5 dollar over shoulder boulder holder and the corruption (read education) of a 10 years of age young fella by the name of Guy.So many stories and memories.
