Way to go guys! Like the site and great photos and video.
Good luck with the sponsorship.
Glad to see the 200’s representing Gas Gas.
You definitely need some Gasser stickers for the van.
If SERA has a National Enduro in the series this year I’ll stop by and visit.
I plan to compete in the SERA series this year in 200B class aboard my 04.

I’ll spread the word on your site to my entire riding group.
Again good luck and thanks for stepping up.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of sponsorhouse. For C and B riders I think it may be useful, but I prefer a personal connection with my sponsors.

All of my sponsors were contacted by me or in some cases setup by a friend and I find it much better this way. Using sponsorhouse, you're just another name/number where as writing letters gives a much more personal connection with the sponsor. I also try to either phone or email my sponsors fairly often to tell them how my season is going.

Thats great I look foward to meeting you and Boomhauer.

I went to that event last year when I started out doing the series but after 8 hours of driving it was canceled due to a torrential down pour.

But in hind site it was a good thing because the following weekend me and some of my riding buds went to a local riding area that has a MX track and a 6mile trail loop to get in some practice and after 12-15 miles of riding and as I was on the MX track waiting for the guys to gear up the stuffer screw came out and locked up the motor, now had I have been in the race it would have made for a super long day and a crappy weekend.

I've been dragging my feet to get it fixed and back togther but I finally got all the parts and hopefully this Sunday I will be lighting the candle and looking foward to a great 08 series.

Thats a great looking Rig. A guy I know has one that looks almost identical to that.

I have one of those large Gas Gas decals in the same position on my class C motorhome replacing what used to say Chateau sport. Now it says Gas Gas sport. I always see non motorcycle people pointing, smiling and laughing about it as we cruise down the road. They probably think I'm making fun of my V 10 Gas hog motorhome.

a buddy of mine who was in the regional AA class at the time went on sponsorhouse & got a # of nice sponsorships, including Moose, somebody for chains & sprockets, & somebody else for oils & chemicals & some others that I can't remember--it made a difference.
