AB 51 Celebration Oct. 8th 1-4pm

[two wheel tramp]

It's REAL easy to get to DNA.

I'll see you this afternoon, John.

 

[CDONA]

Ok, I'm ready to roll.:ride

I hope this buzzard roping contest doesn't go sideways,

The Hooligan Navy aviators may induce some ground level antics,

The the cops will capture all the celebrants claiming dangerous sideshow exhibition,

Then the guns come out like the Confederation of Clubs meet in Waco Texas.:afm199

[Brokenlink]

Good to see so many people show up for this, great turnout.

 

[budman]

Thanks for coming out all.

And huge thanks to Surj for all the hard work he put into this. :applause

 

[budman]

Also to all or our sponsors. I truly appreciate the support. :hail

Very cool to have Assembly Member Bill Quirk come over too. ort


Bought the man a beer. ort

 

[budman]

One more. Some of the many Barfers. :thumbup

 

[dravnx]

It's great to be in a place where flippin' the bird is socially accepted.

 

[revnort]

Good times! Thanks to Dennis, Surj and everyone else who worked so hard on this, and the party today.

 

[ToraTora]

Thanks Dennis, Surj, and all the cats that worked so hard to make this a reality.

Nice seeing everyone. We should go for a ride between some cars. :teeth

+ 1 million to all the *Thank you* posts.
Barf is a special place.
Surj, it was nice meeting you face to face. I've seen so many pictures of you and read so many of your words, meeting you merely reinforced the positive image you had previously projected. Thanks not only for the AB51 stuff but also for keeping one of my favorite publications alive.
Dennis, my only regret of the day was not cornering you for a moment to thank you in person but not surprisingly you were a popular guy. My appreciation for your efforts with the bill and todays event will have to be expressed here, but are no less sincere.
Nice boots btw, Sidi's?

Bumped into a big crowd of ne'er-do-wells on crotch rockets on the way out of there. Poppin wheelies and running red lights and getting me all riled up...I may have hoisted a few wheelies myself in all the confusion. :dunno

Wheelie for safety.

Yep, we passed a wheelie-fest that had to be 1/2 mile long as we were headed north on the ggb.
Impressive, almost as it was ironic.

 

[GPzPop]

I cant help but think of the mind bogglingly large number of total miles ridden by all of the party guests, combined.

Leaving after, wow, bikes fully up and down the entire block, and then some

Thanks for your hard work, thanks for the party, thanks for the swag!!!

I know that Dean's Electric Change the World Motorcycle Park petition was mentioned, but we need to be sure everyone here and their pals have signed it...

AB 51 passes thanks to Budman...outstanding work.

Hey Budman...it was nice to finally meet you. What an outstanding achievement. I know a lot of people helped with this, but you deserve some major kudos for getting this done. I look forward to going on a ride with you and some of your posse. I'll have to catch one of these regional flat track events next chance I get. You Rock Sir.

Mike

 

[Pluot]

Good seeing everyone! Especially great meeting Budman!

Wish I could put a face to all the BARFers, sad to miss the opportunity to meet some of you.

Thanks again for all the hard work!

 

[Surj]

We had such a great time yesterday. Thanks to everyone who came out, and especially to our sponsors for helping to make this happen: Cycle Gear, the AMA, Choulos, Choulos & Wyle, SF Moto, Nexx, RKA, ABUS, 2 Wheel Safety Training, Monkey Moto School, Helite, Moto Guild, Aerostich Reach Air Medical and D-Store SF. :thumbup:thumbup:thumbup

Here are a few shots of the speakers, thanks to legendary CityBike photographer Bob Stokstad who came out and snapped some shots in spite of recent, extensive surgery on his camera hand. Clockwise from top left: me, Budman, Quirk, James Lombardo of ABATE, and Nick Haris of the AMA.

And here's a shot of Quirk and his Chief of Staff Tomasa Duenas being interviewed by the infamous Bungee Brent upstairs at the DNA Lounge.

We've got a bit of video and a lot of photos, so stay tuned for more good stuff once we get through all of it. :teeth

+1 Got to meet some new people, names and faces to Avatars. Sorry I did not get to say Hi to you. I did walk up to a group introduced myself and had a nice talk with people I had not met off line. We need name tags with Barf name and real name.
