2008 Challenge to the Non-US members of this board

If you look at the list of contibutors on this board there is ample representation from overseas.

Since it would be logistically impossible to have a Bash at a centralized location, for all to come, blieve it or not, it was discussed over a few beers at BBII ('05) in Bartow, West Virginia.

I challenge the overseas members to the following;

Have a Beakster Bash in each one of your countries in 2008, most of you know the format, very loose, the purpose is to put the faces with the names, do a lot of good riddin' and take lots of pics so the rest of us stateside will have the opportunity to meet you via the pics and related stories.

How about it....anyone out there wants to rise to the challenge, Aus, UK, NZ? I will promise a surprise, even though I haven't thought about it yet, to the first country that makes it happen.

what about one in Canada? or are we too close to the USA?

IMO, I dont really like the name "beakster bash"...

how about "the Great Canadian Roadster Rally" ?
One day of riding, lunch and a few laughs.

My bad for leaving Canada out.....sorry.

Personally you can call the gathering whatever you choose......as long as it is advertised and pics/ridding routes get posted, so as to give everyone the chance to participate or at least enjoy what others experienced.

Actually, FYI, the "Beakster" was coined because early on most of the attendees had R1150R with the beak front fender and Rocksters, so to make everyone happy we chose Beak-ster Bash.
