Me too! If the bike was done I'd really be amped but it isn't. But I will be there ready to work and then ride a bit when things cool down.
Are you going to ride this year?

MC...........I have not pre-reigistered.  I intend to run in the MPG-250cc class with a modified Triumph Cub.  I have a few pics in the build diary page. Our first attempt at this will be to have FUN and maybe, just maybe we will pass inspection and get a few RWYB runs in to test our vintage thoughts........If all goes well I am thinking I could register for a record run while on the salt.........If I read the rules and records correctly, our goal is to surpass 80 mph........or to have fun by going fast, slowly!

I visited BUB as a spectator in 2009 and have a dual-sport pit bike that goes faster........maybe I should register it and start a new class?

Scrambler, you will have fun..you will learn an old saw...you must master slow to go fast.
Look me up in PRE STAGE, the oldest guy there named Bob.
I plan to run the last couple of days when things slow down. If we get the bike running, i leave on the 22nd and the bike is still in pieces in Va.
Will look up your build maybe i can learn something.
Have fun, go fast and be safe.
Bob
