BONUS BONUS QUESTION - What was the item that everyone wanted to get for there bike that first year!


Um... wasn't it the lucky Bonnie Dice choke pull?? :scratchhead:

Matt C. won one of those for his Speed Triple (no choke).... lol :lmao:

...and then gave it to Robin! :wink:

Am I right or was that a different year?

they were actually 8 ball choke pulls.

Wasn't the first year when Tito was passing out "ton up" stickers that everyone wanted. That was a few bikes ago, but I think I still have one. I have the shirt, too.

I would have guessed the 8 ball choke pull which is currently being used on my Scrambler for the enricher knob.

No longer have any ton up pirate stickers but I am wearing my shirt today. Robin let me ride her Bonnie today. Everybody knows you need a down hill and a tail wind to do the ton on a Scrambler.

mr smith,
you still have time to register for the dinner. I think that you, as the instigator, could have special circumstances and come in a car (I am).

bonniegirl, now you're just making me sad that I'll miss this event. As Marde indicated above, I've gotten lazy. But I am busy in one area of my life that I have you to thank for being encouraging. Painting.

Maybe I'll make it for the tenth anniversary ride! Until then, be well and be happy.
