Ooops!
On 7/27/2007 Mig wrote in from Canada  (66.46.nnn.nnn)

Weird... my previous message was posted without me finishing it or even filling in the black box number...

Well, anyway... I wanted to thank everybody involved in any possible way in making the Buckeye Open 3.0 happen. Particularly you Kenny (of course) and all your staff/friends/family (Bara is included somewhere in here), Paul for the timing, and MB and all the coneheads. You can count on Fullbag's support for next year.


Special thanks to Rob who crashed on his scooter just because he wanted to give me a lift back up. Hope you'll enjoy your Fullbag GS board!

Seeing old friends, making new ones, great racing, great courses, fantastic hill, free beer, free RedBull, free ice cream, cheap food, fun parties in thrashy motel 666 with cops showing up is a pretty hard to beat combination... :)

My only regret is to have missed the park sessions... :(
But there's always next year! :)

Get well soon Kenny!

Badass Bara!
On 7/27/2007 Mig wrote in from Canada  (66.46.nnn.nnn)

Bara, stop acting so hardcore! We all know that deep down you're a softie... ;)

Proof is I saw you hug Danilo in public at the Derby Hill after one of your runs. Too bad Julie didn't take a pic... :)

But then again, Danilo has been known as the "Hug Monkey" since the last Farm race... :D

I just got back from visiting Kenny in the Hospital. Took him a forty of Heineken. Seemed to be in a good mood.

I had an awesome time at the Buckeye, and Emilie and I are going to start practicing!!

schwarzwald christel

hey chris
i couldn't help but notice that you are deeply involved in a real man-love-fest over at sf.com.
maybe i should send you a schwarzwald kuckuksuhr from germany?
i also have a pair of smelly and used indy tube socks at my factory,worn by olson,so you know they are extra cheesy too.

make your choice for x-mas and dreams come true

Kenny AT the Hospital Update
On 7/26/2007 MC HammerHead-Downhillbillies.org wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Just got off the phone with Kenny at the hospital and he says things are looking a lot better from yesterday. They are probably only going to keep him one more day. The wound care specialist looked at his foot this morning and they are taking good care of him. He says he is just chilling out in his street clothes, watching the tube, reading Grateful Dead books, and drinking coffee.

Donald as soon as Paul verifies them completely they will be forwarded. He has a real job and took 4 days from it to run the timing. I forwarded him all the files and I know he was working on them last night.

We hope o get them forwarded to Bara today.

Missed ya' Geo
On 7/25/2007 Dave G wrote in from United States  (71.164.nnn.nnn)

George M... I wanted to make it in a bad way (almost came up Fri night) but as usual Weekends for me are next to impossible, I'm pretty much requested evey weekend by guests I've taken down the river for years.. I told Cat and others I would do my best as well... Turns out, it would a cost me over $900.00 when alls said and done!
Glad all went well..Kenyy, take care of that heel dammit!!!

What a great race! What other slalom race do you have:
-Two scooters shuttling riders to the top of the hill
-High Hat Club
-Hot Dogs and Hamburgers, chips, drinks available for the racers.
-A keg Friday night, another all day Saturday.
-Ice Cream truck roll up with FREE ice cream!
-Schwag pile that had enough decks for ALL open racers and coneheads, plus more!
-the Pro riders cheering and doing the Wave for the Open racers on Sunday.
-All the Red Bull you could drink!
-Seeing the Mollica Family (including his sisters!)
-Team LeSport reunion after 30 years ( where were ya Dave G?)
-Jack Shack at Motel 666

T-Shirts AND stickers with the Buckeye 3.0 logo.
Getting eliminated in the TS 32-bracket by a Canadian (Rob Sydia) and then him offering me a REAL Canadian Lager.
There was more, but it all blends into one good time! Thanks Kenny -such a good MC we may need him to come out for the Nationals!!-Geo

Kennys Foot
On 7/25/2007 Ohm wrote in from United States  (24.255.nnn.nnn)

Just got a call from Kenny. He is at Riverside Hospital waiting to be admitted so they can pump his foot with antibiotics. Seems that his suture has become infected and stunk like hell. His doctor advised him that he needed treatment ASAP. He is still stoked about the Race weekend but now has to deal with his foot. Call him if you got his number.

Kudos to Kenny and Course Medics
On 7/25/2007 Crash wrote in from United States  (75.179.nnn.nnn)

Thanks Dr. Larry and Texas Outlaw and others who nursed me through my bizarre scooter accident. When it comes to experience with major road rash, a world class slalom race is the place to be!

Thanks for everything Kenny and the rest of your crew for hosting a fantastic event.

The Stoke was Hot in the Heartland!

Hey everybody .. thanks for making the new guy feel welcomed.
Last week at this time I was planning to to be a spectator not a
participant . Thanks Kenny & Rob for talking me into it.

I appreciated all of the help and pointers I got from everyone especially
Joe who set me up with some wheels and advice so that I could attempt the hybrid
....thanks Joe.

Great Event ... Great People ... Great Time !

When can I sign up for next year?

Thanks Kenny!

See you soon

Indy Steve
