coupla points, I would change lodging to " camping and RV spots available, check with the park registration and plenty of hotels in near by Fredrickberg."  also , i would say the $35 covers all 3 days. or something to that effect. Make it sound a little friendlier.  If we could get one of you good wrenchers to host a TECH session, maybe on valve adjustment it might attract some new blood. $35 to learn how to save over $200 might sound like a good deal to newbies. Get this flyer done early and I will be glad to put it in all of the shops I can as I travel alot.

Thanks. That's a good idea. The flyer has been changed and as soon as someone volunteers for a tech session I'll add it to the flyer.

Ÿ Everyone attending the Rally is required to pay a registration fee regardless of number of days attending.

not to friendly                               


Change this to something like."The registration fee covers all three days and all scheduled events. Sorry, no day passes as the income from this event funds the Texas X rider website. Thank you for your participation.  Join us on our free website at www.texasxriders.com"

What y'all think?

Hey Gary, you sure are a smooth talker....do you write speeches for the politicians??  Based on the way you write I would believe in your Hope and Change.  :t  :t :c

Seriously, what you wrote up does sound very nice and easy on the wallet.

Valid question, trying to understand the red card, are you saying that if one pays a registration fee and does not attend (this can be tracked) that the extra registration could not go to the web site fund ???
If this is the case couldn't the no show registration fee go directly into the support the web pot ???

Note Kenny, my post said :" change it to something like this"  I did not say to write it verbatim. My suggestion was to make it friendlier to get someone to come that might only be able to make it for a day and feel like it was worth it. Us oldtimers know the score but if we are making a flyer to pass out in an attempt to attract newbies and get help paying for these events, I would think we would want to sound as friendly as possible. I only made a suggestion. I look forward to reading yours.

That does not answer my question -- question is can't a registration be used as support for the web ( I am prettys sure someone know's who registered and who did or did not show)
Did ya take your blood pressure meds today honey :-* :-*
