Since we have been getting close the last few days I've been paying attention to the stats and we just hit 15,000 members. Pretty impressive since it was just 16 months ago we passed the 10,000 mark. To increase by 50% in such a short time makes me believe this old bike thing is starting to catch on.
Also after talking to the guys from Z-1 Ent. at Mid-Ohio this year and hearing about their growth in sales these past couple of years, well it's just encouraging news about the health of our obsession.

15,000 - that's a bunch. Let's all go on a spring ride together. We'll meet at Gringo's house for lunch.
It would be interesting to compile an inventory of the members' bikes. I'll bet there must be at least 1 of every KZ model ever made. Ed

I looked the other day and saw we had 14999. I guess I missed the important one.
A lot of old bikes got pulled out of storage last spring and early summer as gas prices flirted with five bucks nationwide. I don't think anyone believes that they will stay at two bucks or less for any length of time. So keeping the old girl in tune and ready to go seems prudent to me.
And to think I started looking for a bike when gas was around a buck twenty. :S
