Welcome to 2 days ago graemlins/dancingstar.gif

Are you trying to steal MAD1's (http://www.sportbikers.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=3;t=000287;p=1#000001) thunder?? graemlins/banana.gif

j/k man, Not sure how I'll be feeling after CLASS rides that same day.

[MAD1]

there's enough love to go around. You can steal my thunder, but you owe me a ticket to the movie now. I don't know about friday as Thach said, we will be tired as hell after class.

[AsianImage]

dang MAD1 sorry... :(

See you all post this info as a FYI...

I am trying to organize an event...so its different..

I was not trying to steal anything. But technically this is a different post...as I am trying to organize and outing and NOT making an announcement. graemlins/dancingstar.gif

[tR1stan]

[RanchoRider]

I don't think I can make it to this event. :(

BTW, Do we know when the DVD will be out? graemlins/dunno.gif

[slater]

I agree that Friday is no good, since Laura and I have CLASS that day. graemlins/thumb.gif

[AsianImage]

should we change it to a Saturday or maybe a Sunday matinee??

[RC-5Juan]

How come i cant find anything on their site about it? The Faster site mentions it, but i couldnt find a listing on the theater site.

[flip4i]

Yeah Irv, let's change this to a more accomodating day. Saturday or sunday is good for me.

[Jake]

Didnt most of you guys already watched this at Long Beach? :confused:
Anyway, I want to go since I still havent seen it.

[quietlilsis]

unfortunately, saturday and even sunday on this weekend are bad for me, got a b-day party to go to on saturday in murietta and we're thinking of scootin on down to puerto nuevo for a delicioius lobster dinner....

the only day we could possibly make it would be friday graemlins/dunno.gif but it seems like we're in the minority, so i guess ya'll shouldn't count on us

how long will they be showing this film irving? is it a one weekend thing?

OK guys and gals.

Anyone interested in going to see this SATURDAY??

I am meeting JIKSER in Cerritos for some tire installs in the AM. After that we can all meet up for lunch and RIDE into Hollywood for a matinee

or

We can just meet for dinner and catch an evening show. We need to see who is interested as we have to buy the tickets in advance since it is assigned seating.

So post up on who is interested...so far, it is myself, Asian R6 and his wifey...

[Brian Jennings]

My girl and I will saddle up the bikes. Saturday is good - anytime works. Just lemme know. We may try to ride Boquet canyon that morning if there is time.

[Jikser]

count me in, i may learn sumtin'

[Andre Alforque]

Where is it showing on Saturday?

A little too far to meet-up. If you see any good cuban cigars (Cohibas, Partagas or MonteCristos) buy me a few and I will pay you.

[Brian Jennings]

Well, I made it down to San Diego... damn cars tried to kill me the whole way down! Anyway, is the movie a go? My cell is 707 616 5727 if there is any info. We will be riding up sometime saturday morning. Give me a call or post up. Thanks

[tR1stan]

im gonna hafta cake out of this one. sorry guys.

[Brian Jennings]

It's about 5:45 and we are getting ready to head for the theatre. We plan on getting tickets for the 7:30 show there. Maybe we'll see some of you there smile.gif

[AsianImage]

Since no one else posted when I checked the thread....a few of us went. Brian Jennings...we were at the 7:30 showing!

Let me just say..the movie was great. I was really inspired...and best of all I LOVED the message at the end of the movie...KEEP IT OFF THE STREETS...

Rossi is hilarious...dude is basically a cartoon. His accent and the way he talks..love it. Biaggi..what a jerk...and I really learned alot. I have more street cred now!! I can speak on 2001 and 2002 MotoGP season like a pro! HA!

$14 is A LOT...but...it was kinda worth it. Seats were comfy as hell...and I think it was worth it to see the film on the big screen IMO.

[RanchoRider]

sounds really good... i cant wait to get the dvd

[Brian Jennings]

That was awesome! Rossi's comment about "the $@<hidden>#%ing idiots in cars" was great - and I encountered one on the way up I-5 today... I don't think the lady saw me until I came swerving back in front of her from the center shoulder.

I came back home over Highway 36 (http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/Highway36.htm) tonight and was starting to really enjoy the curves, leaning hard, and then I saw fresh skid marks leading into the dirt and off the side of the mountain. I hopped off the bike to look over the edge and saw the car wrapped around a tree - the only one keeping it from going any further down the canyon. Everybody was ok, but it was a bit sobering. Made me think back to the end of that movie - even the big boys dont try to drag their knees off the track. I slowed it down a little and enjoyed the scenery for the rest of the ride.

All in all, my southern california weekend was cool. Hollyweird scares me, but the movie was worth it. Hopefully I'll be able to meet up with you guys next time I make it down. Ride safe!

Sorry to say folks, but unless you are one of the most hardcore MotoGp fans, you should save your money for the DVD!

(In my opinion)

Since they charge $11 to see this, I was a bit dissapointed. It is a great documentary on Gp racing but it lacked the edge that I would expect for a theater quality movie let alone MotoGp racing! The trailer was a bit misleading, especially when they played all that rock music having me to expect that it was going to be a bit hollywood with alot of action.

Anyways........ I think that all you guys should definitley go see this but it's up to you if want to spend $11 at the theater or $16 for the DVD. Besides, they dont play it loud enough at Arclight!

and seeing it on the big screen made it worth to me. I plan on getting the DVD regardless...

[thach]

Good call.

I'm glad your trip down to So.Cal. was enjoyable. Even better was the fact that you made it home safely. Hopefully you can meet up with some of us next time.
