Bernie's 11th Annual Daytona Party

[PRSmechanic]

It will take me a day or so to get this all done, but as usuall, I have a ton of prizes, we will have a blast, and it's a great way to say hello to everyone and start your year.
As we are trying to help children in BC CHildren's Hospital, your patience and help would be appreciated.
Any problems or questions, please pm me. And certainly if you would like to help!
Thanks
Bernie

Ticket pre-sales really help us plan the event, and the more we presell, the more goodies I tradionally get!
Besides, the lineup is faster, and you get an extra prize ticket for helping us out.
Thanks.

Prizes!
I have to mention the Grand Prize, a New 2009 Ninja 250 from http://www.burnabykawasaki.com/. Thanks Brian and crew, this is huge for us. We’ll add a Pacific Riding School full MSA course, and a Tap-Moto jacket and gloves.

From Tony at http://thumphoto.zenfolio.com/, not only did Tony provide pictures for poster the last few years, but he’s also offered up your year in racing at Mission Raceway (the 2010 WMRC Series) which includes a full size poster so you can remember what a star you were!
From Gio and Troy at http://www.westcoastsuperbikeschool.com/, a full Race School and an Advanced Riding School (ART). For a day of fun and excitement, best grin for the buck in BC.
From my friends Jacquie and Brent, 2 box seats to see the Canucks play Detroit. In the Arthur Griffiths Suite, center ice! The view is awesome, and the company should be grand. Thanks to them and Mrs. Griffiths for her generosity.
Again, Graham Turner at http://www.showcasesnowboards.com/, a top notch snow board. 3 years ago he brought a Ducati Snowboard and Ross Rebagliati, so we’ll see what happens!
Brenda from http://www.bitchingear.biz/, one of my favorite donors, and her awesome group of volunteers and friends, will be showing and donating some of her new line, http://www.gearup.to/.
Also for the ladies, BWM Canada has come to the table again with a Ladies Riding Suit http://www.bmw-motorrad.ca/En/rider_equipment.php Very nice and well received!

Another of the many prizes that come from big hearted private donors, Dale and Keiko have donated 3 autographed pictures from Nicky Hayden, Casey Stoner, and Valentino Rossi. Thanks.
Follow that kind gesture with a MotoGP team shirt from Rizla Team Suzuki. It’s autographed by star riders Capirossi and Vermeulen. Not available at any store I might add ;-)
And I am happy to add, a 1 hour scenic flight from Tim on BCSB. Flight for 2 that is.
More soon I’m sure!
Thanks.
Bernie

p.s. this is definitely NOT a riding event!
The Shark Club is right by the SkyTrain, or find a designated friend, please don't drink and ride or drive.
We don't want to make page 3 of the paper for the wrong reasons, thanks.
Bernie

[CHIA]

Lookin good Bernie, sent out a load of invites last night, can't wait!

[EMS]

The EMS crew will be holding court in their usual location. Paulie from Cassels, bring your wallet to bail us out again. Thanks.

[Shovelhead]

I challenge all Race fans to part with one of their memorabilia and donate it for the silent auction.

What can you give?

Here's my donation:
2009 Rizla Authentic pit crew shirt autographed by Capirossi and Vermeulen
(got it from the Rizla truck driver in Valencia)

[Altimeter]

No race gear, but I can offer a scenic flight of the area. PM me for details.

However, thanks Tim, we will have a 1 hour scenic flight up for grabs. I did this once before and it was awesome.

Well, a nice surprise, my $200 in Yamabucks was packed in a box with a mint textile Yamaha jacket!

And John Volk just donated a Ducati leather jacket (I think it was leather, I couldn't really hear, I was driving )

Just waiting to hear about some others, but everyone knows I kick everyone's butt when it comes to prizes. Quality and Quantity!

[Stykman]

We are always happy to step up with prizes for Bernie's party and mostly to help with the kids.
We are going to give away an Advaced Rider Training course, a Racer Training for the Track course and a Track Day out at Mission Raceway.
You can check out details on any of that stuff at www.westcoastsuperbikeschool.com.
Cheers and we hope to see you all there.

Bernie - you have the biggest heart for kids. I hope that everyone can pass the message that it's a great way to kick off the season, but most importantly it will help the Balding for Dollars foundation.
