Flyndrive, as a matter of fact picked this up just tonight


this is about 20"x21" (51cm x 53cm).
Should be plenty of room on the front.
This is on a cheap bandanna, single side, from Hobby Lobby.

Don't have scrap from the other for signature test.
Fine point Sharpie should work fine.

I was thinking for signature: forum name, bike and date accepted.
This would allow for more than one rider per leg if able.
Maybe add the KZR motto "These Kaws don't get put out to pasture" some where on it.
The journey can be documented by photos at specific points state/province line, points of intrest along the way, transfer location etc. in a dedicated thread or added to the regional threads.

Topper, pm me a e-mail address and I will send you the proof from the embroiderer in a .pdf file.

That looks great. :woohoo: I really like the green KAW green also. I think the white would have gotten real dirty. I think the sharpie will be good also. Just let me know when you want to mail it down to FL.

Looks great!!! A motto would be nice, but how about "KZR Lets The Good Times Roll" ? The "out to pasture" motto puts too much emphasis towards some of us member's age :woohoo: Just my .02

I've been trying to get the money together to get my bike running before the start of the relay. I'm looking at the beginning of April if EVERYTHING goes well. (And we all know how often that happens, right.) So if things kick off before then, and it gets up my way pretty fast, I'll probably have to be counted out.
I'm really trying to push to get it all knocked out, but wanted to let you know my situation.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you Chaos. You got another bike? If your Kaw isn't ready in time, maybe you can ride along on another bike.

I wish. Unfortunately just my ST, that's all in pieces. I ordered a couple of things today to start the process, and should HOPEFULLY be able to get what I need to get her road worthy around the middle of the month. God willing.
I won't be able to get all of what I want, but I need to get her back on the road; driving my truck all the time stinks!

Here's a very rough map of the East Coast route. You can use it mostly to get a sense of the states we'll cover and the order we'll go in. But I figure the riders in each state will ride the route that makes sense for them.

I am probably going to have to sit this one out. I just recieved a subpoena for 3/26 court date for some moron who sold me a stolen ATV. Well at least they caught him and hopfully I'll get some restitution. I cant make any plans from that day on, you never know how long the courts are going to take.

You're not going to big house or anything are you?!

Do what you can and don't do what you can't but I hope you're still able to participate at some level.

Hi JyDog, Flyndrive will pass it on to Boostable on the 12th or 13th. If it is passed on before the 26th, like the 17th or 18th would it still be doable for you? Don't worry about committing. I think everyone here is playing it by ear to varying degrees (bikes still being worked on and so forth). Hope you can make it. But then again, I hope I can as well. I'm still putting everything back together. :unsure:
