It was great having all of you come over to Latus Motors HD/Buell. I will present our agenda to our GM when he returns back to the dealership later this week. I'll go over some of the details that we discussed. Hopefully the weather holds and I look forward to riding with you guys this Saturday. |

We are good to go with "T" shirts! I can have them made in both black and white, with large PBR logo's on the back and the smaller "Team Latus" logo on the front. I can proceed on this with the club's consent. I will need to get the PBR artwork as well.
Second, we are also good for the Race Trailer support at the local track days, as long as it doesn't conflict with either our Road Race or Drag Race schedules.
I think there is enough flexibility around those two anyway.

Sorry to have missed the ride. I'll need more precise directions to Gators. I was at the Tualitin exit at 9:40 and spent the next hour looking for it between the the Bridgeport Village exit and the 217 exits. Help!!

Kenny, there is a Saturday morning group ride thread that you can click on that we use for posting all of our rides and meet-ups. There are so many postings in there now that it gets a little confusing finding the directions originally posted to Gators.
I have attached a map for reference. Gators is right on 99W SW Pacific Highway.

Kenny, heres the gators pub address: 11475 SW Pacific Hwy (99W) portland OR it is right on the Tigard/Portland border north of where you were at, right where Barbur becomes Pacific Hwy next door to a bannings restaurant. If you are going northbound on I5 from tualatin get off on the barbur blvd exit, at the light at the end of the off ramp take a left then another quick left, you will then be traveling southbound on barbur blvd. you will pass a baxter auto parts, busters texas barbq, gators is just a little bit past the shell station on the right hand side. i sincerely appologize for the miscommunication! |

OK, I've got it now.  I'll be Destroyer racing the next 2 weekends. In the meantime, I will try to get the "T" shirts moving, and I did speak with Tom Young at PSSR, Pacific Super Sport Riders in regards track days. His suggestion was to take advantage of the April-May dates, and the Sept-Oct dates as these are not as sold out as the middle summer dates. I can purchase discount tickets in lots of 10, but as a pre requisite to that, I need firmed up commitments for those tickets prior to the track days. Tom informed me that they will post the '08 schedule on their website very shortly. PSSR has done track days for most of the major brand of motorcycles and is looking forward to the PBR's. This is all good stuff.

Anyone want to ride on Monday. I need to deliver something to Albany and figure I will be trying to leave somewhere between 12:00 and 2:00. I'll try posting a map later tonight. |

Okay, not sure how to get the link to post right. Basically, down 47 to Carlton take Meadowlake rd. then south on Bible Creek into Willamina, onto 22 to Dallas, take Kings Valley Hwy until Airlie.
That's the jest of it, not sure what I will do for return maybe take same route, or swing over to the eastside of I5 for silver falls. |

Kenny-
Commit me for two PSSR track days; May and September are good, though we'll hope for dry track in the Spring. Do you need deposits from us prior? |

Paul, we're talking about PIR, getting a Buell group together during a couple of the PSSR trackdays:
http://www.pssrtrack.com/
Latus has a race trailer that might be available for trackday support and temporary center of the Buell universe. It would be great to have a posse of XBs, a few canopy tents for shade or shelter, coolers full of Gatorade. Bring your lawn chair and knee pucks! |

PBR's
I have submitted the "T" shirt logo's to our Accessories Manager. I still need a rough count of sizes, that would be much appreciated. Were looking at both black and white shirts.
As soon as Tom Young posts his new schedule for the '08 PSSR Track Days, we can discuss which dates we want to participate in. If no conflicts exit, were good to go. We'll have our same set up as we do when Tripp races for us, doesn't get much better than that!
Team Latus has departed for Pomona, Mike and I are headed out first thing in the morning, with qualifying on Friday and Eliminations on Saturday. Hammer Down time!!
Las Vegas is the following week, and then I'll be available for a Saturday Ride if one is still available. Hopefully the new 1125R will be in and ready. I heard from a couple of employees you guys ride pretty quick, I can't wait!
Regards,
Kenny |

Just from previous posting I counted:
5- XXL
10 - XL
5 - L
3 - M
I personally would not mind having one for my wife and kids. Makes good advertisement for both Latus and PBR. |

Kenny,
Best of Luck at the Races!
All,
Perhaps it's time to freshen up the web page? Aron suggested a post for maps and rides, Perhaps a Latus race schedule and results would be nice. Any other suggestions for PBR Board? I'll touch base with Blake and see what I can work up.
Speaking of Blake,
Kenny, can we order extra shirts for honorary Members? Court, Blake,and of Course Erik? |

Portland Buell Riders, I am trying to design a logo for our Buell group in Colorado Springs, CO. I was wondering of you mind if I steal one of your ideas. I do not think we will use the same colors but the design is really cool. If you do not want us to use it let me know. It is no big deal. Thanks, Frank

Actually this pattern was posted by Disturbed (Cord). I just changed the color and added the 3D Text. I would think it should be OK.
Cord? |

hello fellow PBRers, just wanted to let you guys all know that I have my own site up and running, it's rough so don't laugh, but I invite you all to come check it out at: www.jeremyrwilliams.com and the forum is also up and running, but I can't just sit and talk to myself all day, so you are all invited to come and chat with me on there as well. It really is an open topic forum, so aside from posting nude pics, talk about anything/everything you want.
