Hey guys.

We're doing up the 40th anniversary thing pretty big this year, and I'd like to have the T-Shirts follow in that same theme.

"normally" I wouldn't consider doing BLACK shirts, but for this year I am leaning pretty heavily towards that because they stay cleaner longer, they look bad-assed with the art layout, AND it's a limited edition shirt.

Input soon please.... Poll will run for 7 days.

If I had to guess, it would be the original CDR Raceway in Castle Rock or Adams County Fairgrounds. Woody would know for sure.

I didn't ask Woody where the first race was when I spoke to him awhile back but he confirmed that the MRA was founded in 1973 as the Rocky Mountain Motorcycle Road Racing Association. They decided to shorten the name to Mountain Roadracing Association prior to the inaugural season in 1974.

Here's one for you. How many of the people racing these days are still with the club and remember that 1st event? Was Val Agostino one of the originals, maybe Norm Meyer?
We know Ricky didn't show up until 77 but who are the other original participating members? Be neat to have a little get together for those who started it all at least invite them to the festivities we already incorporate. A brief history would be great as I'd like to know as I'd bet would a few others.
Also as neon wasn't real big in 1973 that I remember, I'd vote against it but dope was, so I'm thinking it be made from hemp. How retro is that? If you don't wear it you can smoke it

I have a resource, but the min qty for a decent price is 500 and that would put them at about a buck each.

let's discuss at the Board meeting.

The orange shirts from last year get noticed a lot so I would vote for the neon. Along with black of course. I would be down for 3 or 4 patches too.
I also think it would be great to invite the old school guys to the races too. Maybe some "demonstration" laps from them?

I like the black or black/orange. I remember riding my old Pan Head to watch Craig Brown race / work on his Harley up at Aspen. When the haze from my hemp t-shirt cleared I thought it would be cool to race !

I think the patches would be awsome!

Do we grow back the Porn Star moustache for an aniversary picture ?

Is there any good reason you shaved it off in the first place? Yes you grow it back!!

Definitely, we do one every year... waiting on the final touches from the artist and then off to the printer!

I'd rock a 40th anniversary MRA hat too. Don't know if that's worth throwing in the mix!

Lost my ass on everything but T-Shirts when we had "other items" in the past... You could buy a 40th Anniv Patch (which are headed our way...) and have it stitched onto a hat though...

Where in Castle Rock was there ever a race track? There's no way the people down here would ever allow anything like that now!

Yup, I drove over there one time and snooped around. You can see some of the camber for a few corners and the general outline of most of it. Nothing ever got developed there but no way people nearby would go for the noise now, bummer as it is so close and would have been a huge draw for people driving down I-25 to stop and watch some racing.

Me too. I still want the patches as well.

We'll have patches at the General Meeting tonight.

Two for $10 and the money goes to the safety fund. If you want only one, it's still $10. Really. :~)

I "should" have the shirts in time for the school, so if you ordered one and have paid, you can pick it up from me then.
