I wish I could hang out on Thursday and Friday, but have to work. Is there a schedule for Saturday for those of us that can't make the other stuff? Would love to ride up and hang out for a while. | ||

Oh yeah, did I mention that Paul James will be there with his DSB 1125R doing the track day with us? | ||

I would love to do the track day, but all the requirements will probably put me off the list. Riding up there, swapping out coolant, safety wiring if needed, etc. will kill it for me, plus returning it back to street condition after, not sure I can do it. Will there be techs/mechanics there doing stuff like that? How much will it run to prep the bike for a track day? I'll have new tires on it, fresh oil change, and good brake pads, but what else do I need? I'm going to be riding at least 2000 miles on this trip, so I can only carry so much stuff with me. | ||

Novice and intermediate do not require coolant swap OR safety wiring. Novice & Intermediate Bike requirements:
ADVANCED Group bike requirements
ALL RIDERS MUST HAVE THE FOLLOWING:
There will be plenty of experienced people there to help out. I'll have a fairly decent set of tools along, and extra painters tape to tape things up for you. (Message edited by steve_mackay on April 12, 2010) | ||

Now I gotta squeek out an extra $200 for this. Damnit Steve, why did you have to make it easy? I'd be in the novice class for sure. | ||

I'll be riding in and back, so the track day is out... be my luck to wad and have to ride a cripple home. Very cool for "non'riders" tho I'm into that idea. Especially if there's gonna be an 1190 to drool around(not on...). Z | ||

Zac...maybe Frank will be there will his trailer. Just saying, it sure comes in handy for a wrecked bike! | ||

Ok, looks like this might be an option now. I might end up driving up instead of riding. I got the go-ahead on the track day, so haul the bike/gear, etc. up there, unload, run around, race, play, dinner/concert, play more on saturday, then back home. If I go that route, I can probably bring along some extra goodies for the impulse buyers if I get them done.  | ||

damn you people, im still trying to figure out how to swing the trackday $$$ and running out of time! | ||
| Betzy |
I'm in for the track day, intermediate. I am always the only Buell on track, it'll be awesome to be mostly Buell's. As Warren Miller says, "you'll only be a year older if you don't do it this year!" | ||
| Nattyx1 |
IF only someone there would loan/rent me a bike... I could fly in. Not enough time to ride there from Cali, but I'm NOT going all that way if I cant ride Blackhawk. Beware the swamp!!!  | ||
| Coolice |
C'mon Nattyx1....someone surely can get you a bike..... And for those riding there etc, our race trailer will be there. So like Steve says a good supply of tools and help is available. | ||
| Fran_dog |
$170 is a great price to fill you need for speed, and it's much cheaper than a speeding ticket. | ||
| D_adams |
Yeah, and you get to do it all day! | ||
| D_adams |
Time is running out. They will be opening this to the general public, probably this week. If you were on the fence about going to this, you better jump NOW. I just got off the phone with Bud, there's not very many listed for just the Buell riders. | ||

Talked to Bud yesterday,ordered up 2 slots for the track day.Great time! |
