Letters
From - Greg Savage - My Wife Thinks I’m Nuts
Are you kidding me?
My nickname is Buzz. I am 57 years old. I just spent a day at the Tattoo Art Show at the Pomona Fairplex and added a second tattoo to my collection of second childhood memorabilia.
I purchased a Yamaha Road Star a few years ago, then added an Yamaha FZ1 this past Summer. Now I watch Supercross races on TV and am looking to expand the reasons my wife thinks I am nuts.
These tickets would let me prove to my wife that supercross is a totally safe and sane sport for old guys. After, she can take me to my therapy session.

I’ll tell you why…
Because I am recently divorced, which was a very emotional and painful time. Not my doing, it was HIS!!! Oh what a bad boy he was.
So now I am single for the first time in 31 yrs, finally dating. And I NEED those tickets to take a date, have a good time, which is much needed.

From - Murray Jansen of Jokers Shop - It’s a Beautiful Day
Ok, I don’t really ‘need’ them ….
Last fall, whilst I was tampering with my bench grinder (trying to make it run in reverse - don’t ask), I remember thinking about what a beautiful day it would be in Denver, Colorado. A moment later, as a meteor cruised by our outer ozone layer, my dog rhododendron (i call him ‘joe’ for short) looked up and said “I’m hungry”. Needless to say, I was surprised as we had just eaten lunch 30 minutes ago.
Anyway, back to the story - I had always believed that somewhere, someday, I would have a place I could call my own. The place I currently lived was called “the shelter”, and they wouldn’t let me change it.
Ultimately, random thoughts will tell you that 67.4% of statistics are made up on the spot, and then it hit me - I need to go to the SOCAL Supercross!!!
That’s my story and i’m sticking to it. And of course, I forgot the most important info you asked for:
- 99 fltr
- 07 flhx
- 06 vstar 1100
From - JimJC Cantarini - Grumpa Jim Taking Grandson
I love to watch all kinds of motorsports racing….especially bikes of all kinds. I ride a Suzuki VL1500LC and a VW Custom Trike on the street and a Polaris 500 Predator in the dirt along with a Kawi MX250.
But to be totally honest, I would love to take my Grandson to see this event! He raced 50cc bikes at Perris Ca and is now looking to racing quads like his father. I know he would totally get a kick out of going with his “Grumpa Jim” To the SuperX! Thanks for the chance!
From - Denise D. Gallagher, San Diego, CA - 3 Reason She Needs Those Tickets
First, I’m entering to try and win the free tickets because I’m an older female, 47 to be exact and I’ve never been to a motorbike race. I have watched a few on the television, but have never attended. You may ask why? Because I really didn’t become interested in motorcycles until after my children were out of high school about 3-4 years ago and I saw a show on the Discovery channel about Sturgis, SD. I believe I was starting to enter my second childhood.
Second, I suppose there is no specific reason why I could say that I “deserve” these tickets, except that my husband and I would really enjoy it and unless I won them, we probably wouldn’t attend. The other reason would be, we both would really just enjoy seeing the races for the first time.
Lastly, my husband rides a 1995 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 and I’m usually a passenger, but when I do ride my own, it’s a 2003 Suzuki Volusia Intruder. At the end of this year or the first of 2008, we will be purchasing a new Kawasaki Nomad, mostly for comfort. Thank you for the opportunity to enter into your competition.
