Shooters 'n Scooters 2012 poker run 9-15-12

[Stainer]

Well it will be good to at least have you on the ride Htrailblazer. Dirte I was trying to get you a number but I'm not sure how many are subscribed to the thread and look at it too often, you might shoot a PM to everyone who hasn't responded about that yet.

 

[Jim W.]

Dirte,I will be there. Either you chose is good for me. I like both choices.
Jim

Count on two people for dinner here.

Two for din-din. Burgers-n-brats.

 

[Hoosier8]

I can stay for dinner. Taco Soup, mmmmm.

 

[stormryder]

Send me a PM

 

[Dirtebiker]

O.k. It's burgers, brats, AND taco soup! And probably S'mores over the fire too!

Remember, anyone that doesn't get up early to meet at Eagle Creek can meet up with us at Camp Atterbury. Or at Indy Trading post this evening.
See you all soon!

 

[femurphy77]

Weather check; looks good. Gloves; check. Beretta and extra ammo; check. Hearing protection; check. Now, where are the keys to the bike?

 

[Stainer]

I'm with you Murph, Checked the weather, checked my gear, got the shirts, ready to head to ECPR here shortly! See you guys soon!

 

[Htrailblazer]

Got to atterbury at 1110 but it looks like I was little too late and missed you guys. Maybe next year.

 

[Hammerhead]

I can't believe I wasn't able to attend this year either. Grrrr.

I hope you guys are having a great time, and I hope you like the shirts. I've already got ideas for the design for the next few years, so I'm ahead of the curve on that.

Stainer and I have figured that we'll be planning this well in advance for next year. I will NOT miss it again.

 

[femurphy77]

O.k., those of you that chose not to attend this event made a bad decision. I bailed on the ride after lunch at Gattis' in Martinsville but have to say that fun was being had by all. The route although somewhat made up as we went along included some GREAT roads up to the point that I parted ways.

Things were going so smoothly that we were actually running about an hour or so ahead of schedule and that may be why we missed you at Atterbury HT. It's a shame that a 4th shooting station couldn't be added for the next event (which I HOPE isn't a year away but maybe a lot sooner).

So let's do this thing again, sooner than annually!

In the meantime I'm going to figure out how to toughen my backside so I can finish the next one.

Sorry Trailblazer, like previously stated, we were actually ahead of schedule this time. We made it to Atterbury about 5 minutes before they opened at 10:00 am. We were done shooting at Atterbury probably about 10:30-10:45 at the latest and we headed out for the ride.

I can't say Thank you enough to our sponsors on this years ride. Thank you to Guy at Tactical Firearms Training located at ECPR for discounted range time and the generous donation of a range pass for the winner of the first round. Thank you to Atterbury for accommodating us with a side range all to ourselves and at a discounted rate. Thank you to Brian and his crew at Indy Trading Post for the donated range time, targets for the entire ride, and generous donation of a range pass to the winner at ITP. The crew at ITP even gave us a discounted rate on a second range pass which was used for the winner at Atterbury! Thank you to Hammerhead for his hard work on the T-shirts designs. Thank you to Nikki at Your Image Works for getting us the shirts on such a short notice. I cannot say thank you enough to all our sponsors and supporters!

Lastly, Thank you to everyone who showed up to the ride today. While we kinda had a fly by the seat of our pants on the ride route, it worked! It was because of you guys we were able to make this thing happen. RelativelyNinja, while he couldn't make the ride, he was able to set up Atterbury for us. Dirtebiker put in a lot of work to getting everything organized with ITP. OldGreg (while not so old) picked up the targets for us last night.

Lots of hard work went into making this thing happen, and I just can't say thank you enough!

I hope to get the rest of the funds in from the shirts of the people who couldn't make the ride this week so that I can make a donation to VUPDblue and his family by the end of the week.

Thanks everybody and I can't wait 'til next year! Lots of plans in the works for next year and maybe the possibility of a Spring and a Fall ride!

 

[Hoosier8]

Great ride, great people, fun shooting.

Rest Break:

Indy Trading Post

 

[Old Greg]

Well put Hoosier8, just an awesome event with weather to match. Can't wait for the next ride, it will get better and better each time!

I agree with all of the above. I really needed a day out with the guys.

I also want to put out a BIG THANK YOU to Dirte's lovely wife for making all the great food and putting up with us biker trash. Dirte thank you for inviting us into your home.

[Dirtebiker]

Your very welcome Jim! I hope to get a much larger turnout for the next ride. And I will host dinner again if everyone likes the idea.

Thanks to Indy Trading Post for DONATING our range time AND the very cool Texas Shoot-em targets! And to Eagle Creek Pistol Range and Camp Atterbury for making special arrangements for us to shoot.

 

[Stainer]

For those of you wondering why your name is in red on the list up front, that is because I have yet to receive your money for your shirt. I have had a couple of people make arrangements and they will be taken off as soon as I receive payment; however, there are still many of you who have yet to pay for your shirt. This is a problem because this keeps us from donating money to VUPDblue's family because money is lost in unclaimed shirts. You will have until Sunday night to contact me about arrangements for your shirt. If you do not send payment for your shirt, your shirt will be sold to someone else. Thanks

 

[femurphy77]

Stainer if you end up with an extra 2xl or xl I'll take one off your hands.
