Ya know, I suppose that I oughta let you know that Nancy and I are still alive. We've been busy. . .
We've each made a pair of runs on the ZX14R that was our street ride until last week. The race bikes weren't done -- so we ran the street one through tech and went out tohave fun. It's got all of 200 miles on the motor -- and runs in the 180-184 range. And that's WITH a "speedo-healer" to overcome whatever programming might be installed by the factory to limit speed. We're having fun, so it's all okay. Todd (narider) and Deb (DahMurf) have each made a pair of licensing runs on the bike, too, and they're happier than two mortals oughta be. Todd was set to make another run this afternoon 'til the winds came up and the course was shut down. They're staying in a fancy casino room -- and that place evidently wants the guests to spend time downstairs at the gaming room, not in the lodging rooms -- no internet service is available! We're at the Econo Lodge -- free high speed wi-fi. Whatever, now you know why you haven't heard from them.
Salt Talks was fun as ever, we've sold a bunch of Salt Talks shirts, landracing.com shirts, and landracing.com bumper stickers. I'll take a photo of each and post it -- so you can start ordering your own shirts and stickers. For those of you that asked us to reserve shirts for you -- we've done that, and have your shirts all separated and held aside. You'll need toget back to us and give us mailing addresses so we can send 'em. Either kind of shirt is $15 for sizes M-L-XL, $16 for 2XL, $17 for 3XL (I don't think we've got very many of the larger sizes), plus a couple of bucks for shipping for each shirt. I'll mail 'em -- so send mailing addresses and pay by Paypal (on the front page of the site). Stickers are $2 each, three for $5, and postage is about $2 for the first two or three and up to $4 for about ten stickers.
Nancy and I will be out here for the next couple of weeks, but will try to ship any orders we get while here. Once we're home we'll ship whatever we haven't already sent. We fully expect to need to re-order landracing.com shirts -- this first batch was just to get started. And as for Salt Talks shirts -- please buy as many as you will, 'cause we need to recoup the investment we put into them. Hey, here's a further deal -- the shirts are $15, like I said, and we picked up a batch of past years Salt Talks shirts from Jon Amo out here -- so send the site a $20 plus shipping and I'll include one of the previous shirts. I don't know which we've got lots of -- I hope it won't matter to you. If you specify a past year I'll try -- but don't fret if I can't fill that order.
Best wishes for now -- gotta go out to the Wendover Community Racer Appreciation/SCTA/BNI Volunteer Banquet. It starts in about an hour.
Jon and Nancy
