People....this is a PUBLIC meeting.......I think there's no reason we shouldn't have at least 20 members show up from SDAR !!

Showing support in NUMBERS really makes a difference !!

Yeah wouldn't it be cool for about 20 of use to pull up on our dual sport bikes. This one is a real easy for me. I have a fantasy baseball team draft at noon at hooleys right down the road. So I get to attend the off road meeting then head to the bar for lunch, brews (responsible amount), and fun.

[KTMrad]

How about we all go to the meeting on our bikes, then go riding somewhere after the meeting ?

I'll post details in the Informal Rides Section. To attend the ride, you must also go to the meeting !!

Sounds like we need some SDAR jackets we can all wear to events like this...or maybe even t-shirts.

I could whip up some designs if anyone's interested in something like this. I'll put it on my dime to make it happen, I think it could be very cool.

I'm going to try and make it - not sure if I want to "Pyro" and ride, or load up the dirtbikes in the truck and hit something close (Corral Canyon?) with my non-licensed son...

I've been pushing the kitchen passes pretty hard lately, so we'll see. Between this and lobby day two weeks later, my wife has been giving me crap about all this "lobbying stuff". Heck if she can throw money every year to the Save the Manatee Club, I ought to be able to work for OHV'ers rights!!!!

[carguy]

Over 500 members and only a few riders supporting our right to ride??

I'll be there, will you?

I'm not leaving a bike on a college campus with my tools and spares... I'll sign in, and then go back out and play guard if we all want to park together... otherwise I'm driving da' truck...

I'll be going to the meeting and riding afterwards (currently planning Corral Canyon, but anywhere close and green sticker legal is fine with us) (See this other thread) with my son - we'll be trucking the bikes. If anyone wants to stash gear and stuff in my truck, you're more than welcome to...

Thanks. Might do that. Helmet and jacket I can lash to the bike, but tools, hydration, and what not I would prefer to not tempt sticky fingers on.

Roger that!!! We'll try and be there 1/2 hour early or so - Look for the black Silverado diesel pickup with Louisiana plates and a KTM and Kawasaki in the back... We'll hang out and see if anyone else needs to lock some stuff up. I hear you when it comes to sticky fingers - have to at least make it somewhat difficult to grab stuff...
