Good to know... But what is you put it on glass in a storefront window and not on a wall?

i would think it would still stand out as a "black hole" on glass, thus being noticeable. but i could be wrong...?
location, location, location!
What?
Hang two per dealer next to eachother, give a nice contrast.
People will see it.
Is anyone gonna join Trouble in hangin them up today? Schoomze some dealers...

I am sorry to report that in this litigous society I will need insurance to the tune of a $1000 premium for 1 million in coverage to have this event at the Champlain Valley Expo. I found this out yesterday when I got the rental agreement in my hands.
I will still try and have the raffle and make a donation to the family readiness group.
There is no budget for this event. The fees for the vendors were going to cover the rental fee.
I am not willing to take this on.
I do not see having it in the Fanny Allen parking lot again as it was brought to my attention that I should have insurance for that as well.
I thank everyone for the hard work on this project and again I am sorry for any difficulties this might cause.
Ride safe.
"Doc"

I may have been a little premature...
I have a call out for more insurance quotes. If it proves to be less expensive I will ask about increasing the vendor fees to cover it.
If not we can keep the fees and still have it at the Fanny Allen lot but I will stiill have insurance.

Wow, this sucks Doc. I hope you get something together on this. I know what you mean about insurance though.
Insurance agent: "So, what is it your company wants coverage for?"
Boston Moto: "We sell and install motorcycle racing tires and rent race tracks so street riders can ride on the race track like a racer!"
Insurance agent: "............." (sound of crickets chirping followed by sound of ins agent rubbing hands together and making cha-ching noises)
Derek
It sounded like the expo center he was looking into required insurance information on he simple motorcle events he was going to do.

The quick and sleazy is Doc got a decent quote for insurance, so the MAD is still on...we are trying to round up vendors to see who is still in and such...the biggest support we need is volunteers for the event itself. Doc's got the specifics, so if you are avaible to come and chill and check out stuff like Tommy Graves Customs and the Turn 1A race paddock, please PM Doc and put your name on the list to help out!

WEEKLY UPDATE/REMINDER!
Land Air, Granite City Cycles, Green Mountain Harley, Tommy Graves Customs Turn 1A Racing, and The Classic Bike Experience are going to be the big players at the MAD Event, along with some sweet raffle prizes, as you all know!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE call, email, write, text, fax, or page ALL the people you know who ride, even if its a Vespa...get them to the Expo on the 18th!!!!
This has been a train wreck the last few weeks, and now that we have everything set up and good to go, it would be a shame to have low attendance.
ALSO
We are going to need a good amount of help on the 18th for the Event. GET IN TOUCH WITH DOC ABOUT VOLUNTEERING FOR THE EVENT!
Whew, alright, thanks ya'll!

I'll print out a bunch of flyers and post 'em around Bennington. I'll ask Ronnie's Cycle to post a few as well. God willing, I'll do my best to make it up there (Black ZX-14, Mladdin helmet). If I can't make it, have a great time guys and gals!

So the MAD is definitely happening now? We were wondering about it at Bike Night last night.
