Some quick pics so we all have an idea what to look for in the following Days!





This is the most complete shot I got of one of the Bikes.At this moment Geoff and Danny were out looking for MAX Speed on the "A" Bikes.





A little more conventional than the last paint,certainly easy to pick out on the track!





The new EBR TRANSPORTER!





Michael "Barney" Barnes, raced with Danny Eslick on the RMR Geico Buells in 2009, with our "HERO"
Erik Buell.





Injector setup on the "B" Hero Amsoil EBR SuperBike.





Danny's plastics from the new Hero Amsoil EBR SuperBike.





Mike Kirkpatrick wrenching away on the new EBR Hero Amsoil SuperBike.Told me he REALLY enjoys his new job and is very upbeat on the future!





It's not difficult to be quite surprised at what Court might tell you!





But whatever it was, Danny takes it in stride.
(I'm being held to "no comment")





And Danny's retort was even BETTER!





The BEST Recreation, though!





The PIT Bikes! Hero products. Danny's Mom told me she's surprised that they still have tailights. She said none of the bikes at home do!
I mentioned this to Danny as he was riding away and he turned to smile at me as he did a wheely through the pits.That's Danny!

Anybody else watching facebook?

EBR posts a 205 MPH trap speed with an American made superbike.

HD posts... pictures of women in bikini's wrestling in cabbage, and anther post talking about how a guy had to buy his wife a purse because he spent money rebuilding his old Harley.

Sigh. I so want to be proud of what Harley has done over the years. But they aren't making it easy.

What a contrast...

The smile on Erik's face is priceless.

I was watching live timing today and the fastest I seen Geoff go was 190.

AMA Pro Road Racing
With Josh Hayes getting clocked at 205 mph and Blake Young only two-tenths behind, tomorrow's races are going to be close!

Good start for Geoff. He handily beat Filmore on the factory KTM.

Ebear, I was hanging out by the Horseshoe, across from the jumbotron. Eslick, pulled the nice standup wheelie on the cool down lap after SB race 2, right in front of us ... we were cheering!

I like to get a high res.
