Just was wondering who has penciled it in to do. Or should say are you coming this year when its announced. If not are we going to do a grass route's 26th??? Myself I hope its around the AMA races as to the 1125R making its way down the straight will be a awesome sight.

Only way I am not making it is if my new boss won't let me out. Currently MB6 is in limbo because of that. Perhaps I will get fired just before it again and then have all the time in the world : )

Im going to do my best to attend this year. I have 4 buell related trips penciled in this year. My distance ride from Nashville to the Florida keys(and back) in feb, MBVI, A ride around Lake Superior, and Homecoming. I hope my A$$ is ready... literally.

It'll be a tough call if it is the Road America, AMA weekend since that is also a CCS race weekend for MidWest and Great Plains racers at Gateway in Topeka.

I'm sure I'll not be the only Buell racer who will be stuggling with that date, it's a little too far to commute back and forth!

I will make the long trek to homecoming for the first time this year. I too was wondering which race weekend they will line it up with.

Is the Factory going to have a Homecoming, or are we going to have to throw our own?
In either event, I'll be there.

I'll have to see if it conflicts with WSMC race weekend. Last year, my bike was still busted up so that was easy.

I'd LOVE to come out and race - see what RA looks like from the inside... and fill out the back of the field so the locals can get more points! (bigger fields = better points)

Although it was a "definite maybe" anyway for this year, the U.S. exchange rate has killed the idea for us for this year... Hopefully we'll make it to Homecoming 2010 : )

the 25th was my first homecoming, and God willing I'll make the 26th too!

The economy doesn't worry me too much, maybe I'm just naive. The only problem is that between the last homecoming and this one I moved 400 miles further from Milwaukee.

900 miles seems like a long 1 day ride

I'm going, no matter what. If there isn't an official one, maybe we could all camp out at the Farm.

Seriously, I'd be surprised if there isn't one. They keep getting bigger and everyone has a great time(except maybe Laura, and we all appreciate her sacrifice).

Hey, Brian. School, huh? Is that why you were snoozin' at the track last Homecoming? I think Steve has some good pictures.

Did anyone ever contact the photographer that said he had pictures of Bud's "accident"?

Yeah, College can swallow your life whole when you're an "old" guy trying to keep pace with these kids
that don't have a wife and kids etc. making demands on their time.

I'm slowing down a bit this semester to try to get my head together.
