The place for your post was the SoCal board.

Thanks...

while you're at it it wouldn't hurt to make it look more like charity and less like an ad for yourselves and the other sponsors. Wink

Hey don't jump all over him.  The ad is pretty clear that it is a benefit for Xavi and the guys at supermotojunkie have gone out of their way to do anything they can to help out.

my bad I just saw your user name + 1st post + track day and thought it was someone spamming.  Looks like it should be updated some.

I think if you raffle girls you may run into more problems than raffling a bike.  Grin

Also, the poster says raffle tickets available for X's bike. Did the bike get donated back to raffle again?

For a while it looked liked the ape tickets weren't going to sell in time, so we offered to sell em at the benefit.

Still have raffle girls. We've got $10 raffle tickets for donated prizes, ie some astar tech 9's and various other swag. waytogo

He is doing as well as can be expected.  The bone grafts in his left arm have healed and he is able to put his full weight on it now.  As a result he has made significant progress in his physical therapy.  He has made a few trips from the facility to his home and is working on doing transfers to and from the car.  The raffle money has gone a long way toward making his home ADA approved and soon he will be back there full time.  I offered to strap him to my back and take him for a ride but he just thinks I am crazy.  Someday he will change his mind (about the ride, not about me being crazy).


Thanks again for all your support.  This place is great!!!
