Absolutely! I'm just bustin' your chops! I Will Annoy you know!

I'd prefer my house to be sold by then, but if not we could get together for some after show BBQ, beer drinkin, pool shootin, slot car racin, and shootin the [I tried to curse] at my place

I jumped in and fixed the date. Oh the joy of an admin's gentle hand...

Hope to see you all on 6/29 as well as the August event!!

Best,

M

LOL!

Its not lookin' good for this fat kid. Doesn't look like I will be able to make your event James.
There is still a ray of hope left.
I was hoping to pick up a pair of those custom bent "Chicago Style" bars that Willinois does on site!!! I would be able to ride a 20"r without a laid back seat post!!!!

we will send you a pair you are not that far away LOL

Do you suppose he will throw in a Willinois "Special Edition" cigar!?

on my birthday even... throwing such a big party, and i wont be there....

maybe next year Rick I have a place for you to crash anytime man
No willinois special edition cigars this year had my share at rockford last year

LOL

bump for Midwest Militia.

Hell yea! I am excited as hell for this...I plan on having a few new bikes to show this year...

We need to get some Midwest Militia shirts made up...

I want, I want!! Haha, How can I get one??

If I have my time in to be part of the Militia , Count me in for 2 shirts ... I dont own one yet...

If someones makin them pm me..

Gino was the one to originally get these made a few years ago. I'm gonna see if I can get in touch with him to possibly get another round of shirts made.

I wanted to update the design, I just need to find someone to do the shirts. I think I may have the source....

details to come.

What kind of hazing ritual must one go through to become a Militia man?

i heard once upon a time you had to beat Willinois in a bunnyhop contest ( better get him juiced up first )

They made me bob for chainring bolts in a vat of acid. Walk barefoot over broken Z-rims, and stop a steel bladed fan with my tongue. IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!!!!

PEP,

you know I'm in for 2 or three shirts. Make sure you get Fat Boy sizes made,XXXL PLEASE...

on gray shirts. Fat boy sizes available

I actually do not have a vendor yet, but I'd like to bang these out by the ROCK.

swwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeettttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!! count me in for a couple of fat guy sized shirts. I dig the Punisher logo.

Grafix look killer Pep!!!!! Count me in! XXL

NO MORE POSTS about the shirt. Check the details in the Announcement Area on the homepage. Please include all details.

right on would love to see ya there come on guys fire this thread up

Hi all-

I'm new to the site, but been lurking over at bmxmuseum since last summer when I got my old 1988 Performer back in my possession. What time is this shindig? I'm in Plainfield and would be interested in coming out to see some cool bikes. Also, are kids OK? My 4 year old just learned to ride and is totally digging BMX right now. He's got plans for me to build ramps and everything

Oh, also need to know the time for the event since my weekend band has a gig that night in Joliet.

Later.

BTW - I hope you guys are aware of the new bike park being built in Plainfield. It's going to be off the frontage road near 30 at Van Horn Woods.

Damn - all these cool events happen when I have to go out of town. Are there any plans for a fall event in the Chi-town area?

there's usually my gig in October to wrap up the season...but those plans have yet to be determined. Times for this one usually start around 10 am & go until whenever....

Kids for sure. My boy will be there w/rider. Should be a good gig for sure.

I am planning to make it.
