    Bad news for me

    TruWrecks: Sorry about your situation. I hope it gets better really soon and hope we'll see you around here often. And, thanks for all the work you put into the altitude surging issue.

    IBA National Parks Tour

    I received an email today from Michael Kneebone of the Iron Butt Association, saying "your ride has been approved" and my IBA membership number is 31960! I sent in my application on August 12, 2007 and got it approved less than 3 months later. Is this a record (not counting the ones that are...

    Deer Strike...

    It amazes me at how stupid deer are. They can be standing on the shoulder of the road staring right at you as you approach, and often they will run across the road right in front of you. This happened to me the other day while I was riding through Wind Cave National Park. As I was coming...

    FJRF004: The 2006/7 Altitude Fix

    I received the letter yesterday. I was a little surprised to get it, since I had not complained to Yamaha or the dealer about the issue. I called the dealer in Rapid City and I was surprised a second time when they were already aware of the ECU problem. They said it would take a couple of...

    I think using a professional hosting company will be fine, especially at the price you mentioned. Bill

    HDTV?

    Silent- I upgraded my DirectTV system earlier this year to HD. With DirectTV, you will not need two dishes, but you'll have to trade up to the newest model dish with two coax cables coming from the dish to your receiver. And, you'll need a HD capable DirecTV receiver. You will also have to...

    Wife's Next Bike...

    Interesting bike. I love the fact that in the photo they felt the need to label that HUGE Connie 14-style muffler as "Exhaust System". Duh. I figured that one out for myself. It's the first bike I've ever heard of that has power steering.

    Free Forum Decals

    It's a very generous offer, Axeman, and is a great thing to do for the forum. But, I hope it does not encourage post whoring.

    2008 CFO

    We asked that question when we blocked the rooms for 2008, and they said it's not possible. But if we had enough people to fill ALL of the rooms...... :rolleyes:

    CFO registration

    I have assisted in planning large conferences for hundreds of people, and I know that large hotels frequently charge $25-50 per person for a banquet meal. Surcharges, gratuities, and taxes can add a lot more. Some hotels will charge you for meeting rooms that your group needs, some won't...

    CFO registration

    I don't have any problem with the "designed by....." on the web pages. FYI- The registration fee for WFO was $140. It included 2 dinner meals and a L/S shirt.

    CFO Activities

    If a vendor who donated more than one item gets a letter or call from everyone who received a prize from that vendor, I think that would be wonderful. Oh, unless you're referring to wrangling door prizes for next year..... Yes, we should have only one person contacting them for that, and...

    Rates Changed a Little

    I agree about the advantage of the smaller venue. I was at WFO this year and of the 200+ people there, only a few were from the area, so it was difficult to get much local, specific information about rides, routes, what to see, do, etc. At CFO, with the bikes parked in front of the rooms, it...

    CFO Activities

    You may have seen the thread I started today in the main CFO area, asking folks to send thank you notes to the suppliers of the door prizes. In addition, I wrote a letter to each vendor thanking them, and telling them I hope they can support us next year too, and gave them the dates of CFO...
