I was busy getting things ready to go to St Louis last night when I got a phone call around 10:15 that my youngest daughter was in a car wreck. She was supposed to be staying all night with a friend when it happened. So spent a few hours in the ER, lucky she is just banged up a little and nothing too serious. I ended up not getting to bed until 3 am and had to get up by 8 am to drive 2 1/2 hours to St Louis. Last Edited By: RailRider 01/29/12 23:40:29. Edited 2 times.

Talked with many forum member and online customer. Ken C was in da house with tons of stuff for sale! rareBMX(not pictured) was around the corner with his stuff too! I wanted to buy this bike but just a few bucks more than I was willing to pay. $310. price tag $310. Manta Ray was tempting! Blue Moon Bike

The show wasn't as full as previous years, but still a lot of great bikes to look at. Also some deals if you were able to look around, I got stuck at my space selling and I missed a Wham o Wheelie bar for $125, as well as numerous other deals. As a vender the show was great, I sold almost three times what I sold at Indy on Saturday, and I thought I did good there.

Really was there to buy a nice bike but didn't find what I was looking for. I did buy some Persons seats, some racing flag valve caps and a Troxel Sissy Bar and all from members of this forum, lol

That's a real nice green seat, must of been the deal of the day.

Plus there was a lot of other drama last night besides the wreck and needed a break from the Jerry Springer show! lol
