Congrats TriggerT!
Man, I am still waiting on mine from back in June 07. Maybe I better call or send an email to check on it.
I'm hoping to do a 1500 miler this year as well.

Smoke, I wouldn't worry about it. I did my ride in Nov 06 and still nothing. (8 months ago it was waiting to be signed by Mike). Patience my friend.
Would be nice to get the license plate frame on the bike before this years riding season starts. Let's see....right now it's 6 degrees, 14 below wind chill, and 5 inches of snow on the ground. I'd say I have some time! :blink:
I sent an email to the IBA and got this response:
As you no doubt know, mid-2006 through today has been a trying time
for the IBA certification program. I am happy to announce that our
new staff (new meaning the people I hired in January 2007 are finally
up-to-speed!) is really starting to shine. All 2006 rides are now
verified and heading off to be printed and mailed. Most 2007 rides
are close to the same stage but we are trying to them in order (there
are some exceptions, rallies get through quicker as we avoid the
math, if you are over 65, yours is going to get priority also and a
few 2007s slipped through the system as they were marked 2006).
With more people on board, we are going to have to raise prices on
January 1, 2008, but the good news is, we have enough **trained**
verifiers now to get 2008 rides out in 2 months. So now, everything
else is catch-up, catch-up, catch-up to get back on track.
Everyone is working over time to get the rides out and hopefully I
can get out of production and back to managing the Association again
(I've been working every second I can checking the checkers and
correcting 2006 rides).
