Now yer talkin'! :good:

Was that all the bikes that showed or is there another location where the rest of the people stayed?

If you remember last year's photo, the Spring Thing 07's has about double the bikes. My understanding is that it doesn't include several that didn't move their bikes over for the pic (for one reason or another).

And another special thanks to Tony and all our sponsors who made the Sat night drawing so great! Nearly everyone walked away with something!

And the personal prize donations made by several attendees!

So far, All i hear is good news so i am assuming everyone made it home and we didnt have any rider down! -GB

My understanding is that the only "event" was a parking lot drop by one of the NMSno riders prior to SFO. I don't think I've ever seen those count on anyone's tallies in any group with which I've participated.

Yep - no SFO accidents this time! :clapping:

I'll get my pics and comments up tonight. This one was a blast!!

Congrats to SFO! Great job all and glad to see it ran well. Gotta love a big, open area like North America where we can all ride many miles together and share a weekend of fun, frivolity, and throttle twisting!

:clapping:

Ok if i can get these pics in here, I promise I'll not only purchase a GPS, I'll learn how to use it as well.

Lets see, this is jjones, on Hwy 43 just south of Harrison AR.

Nobody thanked Tim for the fine cigars! Thanks Tim.

The rides and the company doesn't get much better!

Thanks to the organizers.

Thanks to the vendors.

Ya'll come back!

This uploading photos is kinda fun, I only have two more for some reason. Next time I'm over at Tonys I'll take a pic of the new Storms and show everyone, Man I still can't believe that!

My wife shot this one on Hwy 7 (I think)

Good weather + great people + great roads = Excellent event

Maybe next time I'll be able to speak a little louder and carry a smaller stick. :yahoo:

A big thank you to everyone who came out! I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves and Arkansas. And an even bigger thank you to Tony and all of our sponsors! These sponsorships are definitely what made it rock! :clapping:

It was awesome to meet and ride with Wingman and his wife, Amber. Totally made my weekend. The 3 of us and Leartech made a great little group on Saturday hitting the Piggy Trail and Magazine Mountain. Then Reggie (Raclow) and Tom (aka Christopher Walken, aka ARFJR) joined us on Sunday and we had all kinds of fun! Pegs were scraped, ABS was engaged and a nice variety of roadkill was passed! :lol: Seriously, I have never seen that many dead animals!

I'll miss joining y'all in the fall but I will return in the spring for another edition of SFO!!

She tried it a couple of times on the way home with less than stellar results, clouds on Sat seems to have made a difference.

If you would like a copy of the pictures we got, just PM me with your address.
