Hey All,

My friends at the MotorCafe came to me to chat about an event at their place specifically for BARF. I personally have purchased several bikes there and other BARFers have as well. I have known the owner for a long long time, even before BARF existed. Great dude. The staff is super too.

So we are going to give this a go. :party

Here is the skinny.

Location: MotorCafe 1011 Del Avenue, Campbell. MAP

Time: 11 to 3:30 or so. You can drop in anytime of course so a ride before is possible. See flyer for specifics, but the main things are Food at noon, slow race at 1pm and raffle at 3pm.

They have some prizes for participation and a raffle :thumbup

My high school buddy will do the DJ stuff during the day.

The slow race will have two classes: Start at 1pm and end at 1:45pm.
Clip ons and other. These are always a hoot!! :laughing
Hopefully provide 2 chances at proving how slow you are!

Corn Hole: 2pm / Teams of 2.

Raffle at 3pm (no cost).

Mr. Frosty will have ice cream available! :party

I'm scheduled to work that day. :mad
This sounds like too much fun to let slip by....I'm gonna have to bargain with my boss again....
Gonna try to make it happen.
 
Hmmmm...
I've won one barf slow race in the past (Hawthorne).
Maybe I should try it again.
 
Just wear real shoes please. :laughing
 
Shoot, I'll be on the last day of a trip to Oregon to do the OBDR, this sounds like fun.
 
Riding is good N4te!

Just got word that Mr. Frosty will have ice cream available! :party :banana
 
Damn I might be racing up in Oregon on the 16th. Fast racing vs slow racing hmm...
 
Dang, that's a lot more freeway distance than I usually do.... might just go for it though...! Do love being slow, ha.
 
man, I'm going to be out that weekend, but I love the idea of it, sounds like fun, would definitely attend otherwise!
 
:bump

One week away...!
 
Tire changes!! Will they do tire changes there??
 
budman, do they have parking for a truck/trailer there? I'd call but they are closed today. I might go early and take a ride to Alices (haven't been there in 2 seasons or so), come back and hang for a bit. Thanks. Ken

Their service department is likely open but you should call ahead. I have no clue :laughing

Their lot is not huge.. and not sure on the other side or street.

Best to call. Ask for Jose or Dalton.

You are welcome to park in my parking lot at my office in Mt. View. About 10 miles away.
 
Uh-oh...I see the MotorCafe sells KTM, Husky and GasGas :teeth
The last few years have been tough ones in our household but there is a bright and shining light streaming in at the end of the tunnel right now. I got a hot date in Idaho in 4 weeks, and there's a whole lotta dirt between here and there. I'd like to explore it on a new bike! Maybe I might oughta get my fat old self on down to the MotorCafe...



RideReportin'Chick
(If I remember how...)
 
Love to see the RideReportChick on Saturday.

They have some good off road sort of machines in their inventory. I always stop and drool. :laughing
 
:bump

Trackday certs in hand.
DJ set.

Looking forward to seeing some folks going slow.
I could use a volunteer to help time since we are going with two lanes and head to head slowness. :laughing
