Got my December issue of Sport Rider and on page 24 the book "25 Years of Buell" is featured.

Congrats Dave and Court!

Did they mention my youthful looks?

Dave won't be around for a day or two . . . he's recovering from the Obama victory celebration. . .

Cool, I'll have to stop by the mag shop and see if I can find it.

Did they like it?

My celebration was staying up to hear him speak. The man does a really fine speech, now comes the hard part. Let's all hope he does a good job.

Dave:

Pick up a spare. You'll see Mike's stuff tomorrow.

I'm picturing you driving Obama around in the CV.

Dave - Yes, I would say they liked it. It was shown in the section of the magazine that features "new" moto related items.


By the way...speaking of moto mags...I like to read a lot of them. Many of them, throughout the year 2008, have had articles on Buell being 25 years old. However, I cannot recall Cycle World ever doing an article on this milestone. Did I miss that one, or have they really not mentioned it yet? I kinda figured with Steve Anderson having worked there, an in depth story would be made.

Cycle World did not do anything. I was so busy gettign the book out that I never got around to offering them a story which is too bad, they might have paid me: )

BTW- the new book is reviewed in Thunder Press, which is mainly a H-D biker rag. Unlike most of the biker "magazines" I see, TP actually has some decent prose and some good writers.

Congrats- I'll be getting mine before too long.

Some guy named Canfield used to do an article on Buells in each issue of Thunder Press, back before Reg Kittrelle sold the mag.
