Default Supercross autograph party in Arizona

Team Yamaha (actually 4 teams from Yamaha) were nice enough to come out to one of our stores for an autograph signing party...the night before the Phoenix Supercross

Here are a few pics...I was using the work camera...can you tell?

BTW, Sorry Fred, I wasn't able to get anything tonight. I'll see what I can do tomorrow?

Part of the 500+ people that showed up for the 'party'!



Announcer Dave Brosius talking to Chad Reed



The lucky winners of the complete Team Yamaha autographed Banner!



Final picture...a tired Holly (She was my raffle gift 'giver outer' person) with Chad Reed. He is truly a class act!

Your job really sucks Bruce.....hanging out with some of the best athletes in the world on this day.

For those that don't know, the fellow pictured with Holly is Chad Reed. Chad is the #1 rider for Yamaha and came here from Australia, the equivalent of a Jackie Stewart in motor car racing. Very cool.

If any of you guys are in Phoenix early for the auctions, check out the supercross......thrills and spills. Aparently a fellow named Robbie Maddison has now jumped 322' on a motocross bike. That's over the length of a football field, nuts.

Thanks for the pictures, now get back to work and sell some of those Yamaha's!!!!

Dirt dig promo...where we gave away the Suzuki. They had to dig in the dirt to find poker chips...the one with the most won!

I love Motocross!!! If anyone has never tried it, they should - even just once. It is grueling! The average guy will be sucking wind before the first lap is up, but what a thrill! The only headlights I saw when running was a trooper from South Jersey, oh, and a single headlight on a dumb quad that slid in front of me on a back trail - head on collision, slight black out when I hit the ground
