Are you guys going to do any door prizes at the party?

I have Jessie Black's Saloon committing to some raffle prizes, The Mag is donating. Bubba and CB are putting the run together, and are making arrangements with the other stops and a few other places. Flyers are already at the Mag, Louies, Kuntry Kitchen, Jessie Blacks. If anyone wants to hand flyers out please contact one of us. I will be running Flyers to Uncle Tom's and Dizzy's on Thursday and also probably to Little Joes. Riderinfo shirt donation would be welcomed.

We will give ya a shirt for the Raffle. :)

This run will also be in recogntion of Shauna Greene who is recovering from a wreck where a dog ran out in front of her. We wish her well too.

I will definately be there....if any help needed email me....I'll also pass it along to some of my "non-net-savvy" bros! I was by there that day and my heart goes out to all the her family and friends.

We may need a little bit of set up help. However, we need as many bikes on the run as possible.

The friends and family of Earl and Barbara Ackerman wish to extend their thanks to Allan at Saddletramps for his generosity in giving a donation for the August 13, Dice run to be held in memory of Barbara. While it seems other dealers may trivialize the importance of this run Allan Knows the importance of rider safety and the value of a human life during this time of grief.
Thank you Allan and all the staff at Saddle Tramps.

We now have a second band lined up to play at the after run party at Guff's. Thanks Joe, thanks CB

While some local dealers do not see fit to participate in this run I have spoken to Bruce at Ancient Age Motor Company in Land O Lakes. He feels it is important to contribute to the run For Barbara. He is going to send a representative on the run and party if he cannot make it himself. If you want to see some cool antique bikes go to

I'll be there!!What time is the party at guffs supposed to be?I may have to run home to feed the animals.I think guffs is only 10 -12 mi from my farm.I looking foward to a local run and good times..Eric

You should have no problem making the party. Not sure what time though.

It is a pleasure to help out the families of downed bikers. I'm sure I speak for all the members of Bad Apple, when I say that.
I picked up 2 donations from "Happy Jacks Subs" on CR 561, Astatula. Run by John (Jack) Nolls. Considered the best subs in Lake County. "You won't walk away hungry',
If you can walk away.
The open jam session that Jrbooe mentioned has been upgraded to 3 bands. TBA will be there, Cul-de-sac will be there, and Bad Apple will be there. Dont think we'll have time for open jam sessions. Stewart Productions will be providing sound and lights.
and music between bands

Good luck, it sounds like a big day. I hope to make it, but I may not. I have to wait till that day to know. Too busy to plan ahead right now.

Samantha Ackerman has also requested that Sonny and his band, Vocal Drop perform as well. Since this run is for Sam and Earl I feel it is only proper to grant her wishes. Thanks to all four bands who are participating. The party begins at around 5:00PM, all bands are requested to be there sometime after 3:00PM to set up.
thanks, Jay
