the Sled Pull.
Date: Sat, June 14th, Lancaster Ca. Fairgrounds. New Sled Pull event.
Ok, here are a bunch of the details. I am going to copy and paste so I don't leave anything out.
First of all, this is all for Kids charities They are raffling off numerous things including the Grand Prize, a 2008 105th anniversary edition Harley-Davidson StreetGlide motorcycle.
A complete Softtub from Ideal Spa. Custom Harley Davidson Vending Machine from The Spa Shop Inc. 08 Polaris Phoenix 200 Quad from Palmdale Supercycle. ETC.
Events will include a Bike Show, Classic Car show, Import Car show, Entertainment concerts including Foghat a 1970's band, Food and of course BEER! Kid's Area/ Carnival, Poker Run and a Poker Tournament, Alternative Fuel Expo, Trucking 4 Kids Charity Truck show and shine, Burnout contest, and of course the Sled Pull. They will have a huge vendor area for the Diesel vendors and it will be located close to the pull and the big Truck area. 50% of all Diesel related vendor booths fees will go to a purse for the pull. ALL participants will have a chance to win purse money. There will be TV coverage and Radio coverage and advertising and they have a professional announcer for the pull. The grandstands hold over 10 thousand people and are expected to be packed. There is only a $5.00 charge to come watch and that includes the Band too after the pull so it is vary affordable for family's to come and watch.
Remember this is all for Charity for Kids.
This event is the second largest charity motorcycle event West of the Mississippi, second only to the Love Ride.
Registration for the pull is $30 and that gets you a T shirt as well. The pull will be on Sat, June 14th and it starts about 4:00 p.m. Gates will open at 3:00 I believe.
Although they are supposed to have an updated web site by this week, you can still go to Thunder on the Lot: Main event June 15th and they have a Registration form you can fill out and fax in. The more people who plan to pull that register in advance the better.
Thunder on the Lot has been going on for the last 14 years and they are growing every year. This will be one Awesome event and they are planning to do it every year as long as it makes money to help the Kids Charities.
So the more people who come out to support it the better it will be and the more it helps the kids. Plus it will be 3 and a half hours of diesel fun.
Any question about being a vendor or something I left out PM me and I will get the answer.

Thanks, and any help we can get spreading the word would be appreciated.

I think this will be a good starter event for us, and it would make a great place for a Chapter meet and greet. I plan on being there, maybe not in the pull because I will need to get home! But we can shake hands look at rigs and have some fun for a good cause, I know its still a bit north of some of you but Chime in and lets see how many of us can commit to showing up!

OK, Guys and Gals!!

Sled pull and the rest are this coming weekend. JUNE 14, the link to the event web site is above. I am planning on attending. I hope we can get together for a minute or two to shake hands and compare rigs. Not sure on how we will meet up, maybe PM me with a cell phone # or something. I have never been to this arena so I am not familiar with it. Maybe Diesel Lady can put something together? I will be wearing my DTR Baseball shirt and a camo hat, and I will be driving the 1st gen in my photo album/avatar (white/primer 91 s-cab with a Brahma shell and miss matched rims/tires )

dieselcarpenter

JohnX

Excellent idea! Let me know where and I'll be there.

Driving this rig...hard to miss!

OK, I think I have a place, there is a Carrows off of Avenue K on the west side of the 14. According to Diesel Lady it is there on the left hand side. So off at K southbound, go right at bottom of ramp and left at the first signal. The address is 1650 W Avenue "K"

The gates open at 3pm and the pull starts at 4pm, I say meet at Carrows at 1pm, eat, then convoy over around three-ish.

What do you all say?----------------------- Ill take that as a yes.

So lets meet there and have some fun!


I hope a lot of you can make it. I hope to see everybody there!!!!!!!

If you want to rsvp just post here.

Thanks!

Randel.

What does "No colors event" mean? It says it on the web page.

JohnX

No motorcycle clubs can display colors....as in GANGS. Supposed to be a family friendly event and the don't want Fighting over "colors".
