Thanks again for hosting this great event.
My friends and I will be bringing some nice steaks to put on the grill.
If there's anything else I can do to help out, let me know.
Are going to the Central Park ride in a few weeks?

OK! Here's my idea for a foot down comp!
1 minute rounds and at the end of each round every rider takes a shot of beer 'till the last man is standing!

no resppnses in a week? what gives, no-one wants to come out?
no-one is gettin all hyped up?
almost 1 month left
ok, its almost just a month remaining before summer slam and the bike show prep is under way, trophies are in the works (thanks stevenbven, rcrscott29 and guav) and the classes are decided.
the rules and classes this year are simple. mr wolkewicz has asked to step up and help run the show as he did an outstanding job at shoreham bmx.
the classes are as follows
1) best race bike
2) best freestyle bike
3) best at the show
4) Brian P's pick
new school, old school, survivor, rat bike, retro, rider, anything goes.
for the freestyle and race class there will be a maximum of 57 bikes allowed (i like the number)
there will also be a max of 2 bikes per person per class.
all registries MUST be pre entered by PMing me prior to august 4th
best of show will be determined of all those bikes as a seperate vote (not combining votes)
Brian P's pick will be a pick of my favorite bike at the BBQ whether entered or not.
oh yeah, this year i do NOT have the sweet school style metal bike stands i had last year..... please bring your own racks.
clean em up fellas!

Jul 20 2007, 06:08 AM

If you want, you can put me down for one race bike entered. I`m not a competative type of person and I don`t know if I`ll even have something show enough.

Looks like I'm gonna make it! My wife is 6 days overdue with baby girl & she's still letting me go. Talk about cool. Of course I may have to split at a moments notice.
I'll bring my 'zine collection again, maybe someone will actually get to see them this time.
Guav I have a few somethings for you!
is it cool to bring sale/trade items?
