DATE: SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27TH

GROUP PHOTO: 2pm

LOCATION: Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum (AMA Museum)

13515 Yarmouth Dr, Pickerington, OH 43147

This is for my friend Mikey, a riding brother (aka mikeydread or for description purposes tall goofy Jamaican on a green ZX7R and yellow DRZ supermoto) who is in the hospital from an accident on September 30th riding in WV. Although no one witnessed the accident because he had gone ahead of the group, they believe he low-sided on his supermoto and slid into a guardrail. Even though he was wearing his full one-piece leathers, gloves, boots and helmet it would be a head injury that would be most threatening to his future.

On my visit to him recently in the hospital where he is undergoing rehab he's requested photos...lots of them. So I want to do one better and create the biggest sportbike/supermoto photo I can.

This is my call out to you all who ride sportbikes and supermotos to come and just be in the photo (what else ya gonna do now that the winter is forthcoming). I've actually been wanting to do this for a long time anyways and this just solidifies the need for an awesome photo like this. If you ride track only, put your bike in the bed of your truck (or whatever) and head down there anyways.

We'll also be doing a cook-out fund raiser (rain or shine) where $20 will get you food, admission to the museum and a door prize ticket for the prizes we are trying to drum up between now and then!

Hope to see you there and if for nothing else other than creating a kick ass photo!

What time is the food going to be ready?? ;) I guess I'll load up one of my bikes in the pickup... I've got to watch my son all day that day.

Can't wait

Oh, I didn't realize I didn't post that. I did on CORE...whoops. We'll be there from noon until 3pm so getting there early, hanging out and what not would be great. I'll be there from set-up to tear down so we'll see you there.

Hope to see some of you there tomorrow! We'll be there from Noon - 3pm grilling out and hanging out! 2pm will be the photo. Weather is looking chilly but nice and even if it were to rain, we have plenty of shelter to hang out under. Please no holliganisms otherwise the AMA won't let us do stuff like this again! Please be on your best behavior, this is for our buddy!!! ;)

Additionally, if you want to help out Mikey we're accepting donations or for just $20 we're offering food, admission to the museum and a door prize ticket for several prizes we garnered up! Such as:

Two tickets to any AMA Superbike event (except Laguna)

Two tickets to any AMA Flat Track event

Two tickets to any AMA Supercross/Motocross event

2 individual oil changes from Cycle Pro

(and anything else that people would like to add to the table)

Just look for the blue EZ up by the front of the museum if you're wanting to check us out (Robert should be manning the booth). There you'll be able to donate and/or sign our GET WELL poster for Mikey. We'll have people guiding you were to park if you're planning to be in the photo, so look out for someone waving at you or just look around for where everyone is parking their bikes. As a photographer, there is always a method to the madness of trying to get a good shot. ;)

If you're not able to come but would like to donate to help Mikey, please PayPal me (Stephani McIntyre) at smcintyre219@yahoo.com or you can also PM me for the family address to send a donation by mail.

Someone emailed me about what I meant by holliganisms. All sportbikes and supermotos (and the dirty guys too) are welcome whether you prefer to ride twisties, commute, dual-sport, sport tour, stunt, drag race, road race, whatever...all I ask is don't get silly while on the museum property. So no stunting, rev limiters, supermoto backing it in for fun, etc. while at the museum. That's all. The more bikes the merrier so come on out! ;)
