Default Mascot Retirement.

Since the Mascot is full, I think it should be retired with the person who orginally purchased and started the Mascot tradition. Since I am the official Mascot moderator, I will purchase the next one. Perhaps I will have Mascott II made with an official HDForums logo on it. So as soon as the other one makes it back to its retirement home, I will launch the second one.

Seems like it was just a couple days ago that Jason (bastardmaker) rode up my drive on his Sporty, and handed it off to me. And my ride to Poteau, AR was right after that. Time flies when yer havin' fun, or gettin' old. When yer doin' both, it's too bloody fast to remember!

Larry,

I am in possession of the Mascot. I will hold on to it until I have a chance to talk to Mac. He's been absent from the board for awhile now so I don't know when I will get it to him. Rest assured that it will be safe with me. Let me know if you need any help getting a new one. I'm sure Ralph would be glad to help us with graphics. He's coming out with a really cool shirt design for the forum.

Take Care

It WAS a HARLEY-DAVIDSON FLAG that was rode from place to place on a Harley, all over the country and signed by whatever members got the priviledge to see it.

Check the "STURGIS" thread and you'll see it.

I am going to look around at some local embroidary shops and price having one made with our logo on it. I will let you know what I come up with.

Whats wrong with another Flag? And whats wrong with the Old Traveling with the new, so folks get to see the Original, personally I think the Original should continue until it has been in all 50 States. Yea its full of names but it aint been to all 50 States. Just my .02 I think that was the Original idea anyway, all 50 States.

Can't we just start signing the back of the original mascot? Part of the appeal of the mascot is seeing the signatures of the people you talk to online. I'd say there is an entire backside to fill up.

Problem is,,,

The original Mascot is made of a "meshy fiber" which bleeds through. Signing the back would ruin it unfortunately.
