I would love to go ( and check out the new Touring Buell) but I can't due to our open house. Don't forget to stop by STPHD for your free lunch. I will be demoing bikes so stop by and get a burger and ride the new Street Rod. Nils |

No homecoming trip for me, I'll be in a different part of Wisconsin this weekend. Last weekend I headed out solo (didn't get a call or email Nils so I figured you had other stuff going on). I ended up riding 8hrs around SW Wisconsin and back through Winona for 325mi. I found some awesome roads and some awesome gravel patches too. My next chance for a ride like this will be June 24th afternoon or 25th morning. Let me know if anyone is interested, I can't make the June or July BRAG rides. |

Next time you are in Winona, head south to Hwy 16 and head west. It is just great. It will take you through Lanesboro and ends in Austin. |

First Thursdays this week! Considering the only Buell that was there was piloted by Nils, there better be a stronger showing this month. Does anyone in the St Paul BRAG club actually ride? just kidding. Me and Nils are going to leave from the shop around 5:30 or 6:00. Eric, i think i saw you riding down towards River Falls this past weekend. |

Saturday morning about 8am I was near River Falls. I didn't find time (in 8hrs) to get south of Winona or around the La Crosse area. I kept getting lost (a good thing) in all the alphabet roads on my way south. Next time I'll plan for a whole day! |

I'll be there tomorrow, not sure which Buell but I'll be there! (That's if my Dad doesn't take a turn for the worse. He had a stroke last week... I'm getting tired of hospitals...). Brad |

Just letting you guys know that I won't be able to participate in any BRAG events. The chances of my getting a bike now are very slim. I just don't have any money for one. Nils, I realize that "Vice-President" was merely an honorary position, but I'm sorry I wasn't able to help out more. Good riding, guys, and maybe we'll run across each other sometime. |

We must have been looking in different areas! I saw at least 10 Buell's at Dulano's and surrounding areas. The bikes were really spread out this time. they went down at least 2 blocks south from Lake street. I saw 2 S2's! Probably 5 XB's of various flavors. 3 M2's and at least 1 X1. Did you see the diesel bike? |

Sorry I didn't make it Thursday, my bike has no headlights right now and I had to pack for some trips. I was in Eau Claire last night and outside the bars on Water street I saw a sweet XB9R with a custom paint job. It was dark green and black and looked awesome, had a logo that I think said Criminal Designs. The frame was polished too, pretty flashy. I'm wondering if that is anyone who lurks around here? |

My X1 was there. The diesel bike was wierd. Bluz did you notice the hydraulic pump drive? Somone had way too much time on their hands and a heated garage one winter. |

If you weren't at last nights BRAG meeting you missed a good ride. St Paul Harley Davidson/ Buells MVP Director Ricci Graziano, rode with. It was a bit warm at the stop lights. |

Back to the Fifties is this weekend and if any of you need a safe place to park your Buells, my driveway is open. I live on the corner of Arlington and Asbury - 1439 Asbury street. At 7:30 Saturday night the cars cruise up and down snelling ave. Let me know. |

Nils, Thanks for the offer! I may take you up on it.. Another cool place on Friday is at the check in hotel on Lexington and 694. I went there last year, parked the bikes, wandered over to the bar, grabbed a beer and strolled around looking a cool cars. All for the cost of the beer! |

They are already lined up for camping. I could not believe how many cars are already in the north lot by my house. |

I'd come over Saturday but I'll be gone this weekend, up north running my off. This is good practice for you for the state fair in a couple months, it must be like living in a carnival! I just got a new GPS and some fresh tires (soon to be mounted) so I'm hoping to get out riding maybe next weekend? |

Just park them in my drive way or bring a puck and park in the yard. It is easy to go between the garages to put them in the back yard. |

If anyone is interested. I, along with my wife and son are going to be doing the BRAG "Riding the Rockies Adventure". We have a 7 x 14 enclosed trailer and a 4-dr Dodge Ram PU. We plan on departing Mpls midday Saturday 8/13, stop for the night somewhere around Omaha/Council Bluffs area(probably a casino for the wife), then on to the host hotel on Sunday. Return trip,looking to depart Sat 8/20 afternoon and maybe run straight back to Mpls non-stop. We would have room for up to 4 bikes between the trailer and the bed of the truck. If anyone is interested send me a PM and we can discuss further. Tim |

If any one is looking for a yellow xb9 low, I have one on the floor. It was lady owned and has a race kit. The previous owner bought a Hyabussa. |

Stop by and see me at The Taste of Minnesota, Sunday and Monday. Hopefully we will have good weather and not this HUMID crap. |

I got some Buell shirts from Vanson today. They are white. I had them place a big order, but not all of it came in. |

Nils, hold onto a medium shirt for me please...I'm out of town until July 10 but need a Buell shirt, what designs are they? Tim, I like the idea of trailering the bikes to somewhere cool, thanks for the offer. I can't go along for this adventure (already been to Colorado twice this year by car) but if you need a tag-along in the future I'd be interested. I've always wanted to head to the black hills with my bike (not during sturgis) or deal's gap. |

Don't forget about the ride this Saturday, July 9th. Meet at St Paul HD at 9am. Scott has volunteered to lead us (or have us chance his green X1). Come with a full tank of gas. We will stop for lunch some where in Wisconsin. Nils |

Oh you guys are in for a ride. I have a plan and it includes many twists and turns and a couple of blind crests. Oh, and a coffee shop with sandwiches. |
