Freebird Posted May 25, 2008 #1 Posted May 25, 2008 As we approach the 5,000 member mark, I think it's time that we think about a contest. How about a $100.00 gift certificate from New Enough? As you know, they contribute $1.00 per sale when one of our members buys from them and chooses VentureRider as the sponsor club. We have already given away one prize from there and we have enough in the account there now to give away another one. So.....put your thinking caps on and let's decide how to do this one.
Dexx Posted May 25, 2008 #2 Posted May 25, 2008 How about the first one to reply to this post wins??? No? O.k. I don't have any ideas right now, but I'll let you know if I do.
MikeM8560 Posted May 25, 2008 #3 Posted May 25, 2008 How about the first one to reply to this post wins??? No? O.k. I don't have any ideas right now, but I'll let you know if I do. No second:080402gudl_prv:
flb_78 Posted May 25, 2008 #4 Posted May 25, 2008 How about who can stir the pot the most with threads about tires?!?!?!?!
spear Posted May 25, 2008 #5 Posted May 25, 2008 Hey Don, Being the originator of the "35 to go" post, permit me to throw in my 2c worth. How about everybody guessing the time and date that the 5,000th member joins? The nearest to that time and date (if nobody guesses it exactly) wins. All entries to be in before the end of this month. (If that's soon enough. The way we're going it might happen before then!!) Cheers mate, Spear.
BuddyRich Posted May 25, 2008 #6 Posted May 25, 2008 What's Don gonna park in the Pond next ? And the Vacuum don't count....
Yama Mama Posted May 25, 2008 #7 Posted May 25, 2008 Spear I like your idea. I know I will not win, but it is a good idea anyhow. But will that be your time and day or our time and day. This could be a controversy. Mama
Rocket Posted May 25, 2008 #8 Posted May 25, 2008 What's Don gonna park in the Pond next ? And the Vacuum don't count.... Or how many pond monsters, on the maint day weekend.........
skydoc_17 Posted May 25, 2008 #9 Posted May 25, 2008 HEY DON, HOW ABOUT IF WE GUESS WHAT STATE, REIGEON, COUNTRY THE 5,000TH MEMBER IS FROM? THIS WOULD BE PRETTY STRAIT FORWARD AND YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH TIME ZONES ETC. JUST A THOUGHT. EARL
Dano Posted May 25, 2008 #10 Posted May 25, 2008 Who can tear their bike completely down, fix 2nd gear, re-oil seal & o-ring the motor, paint the frame, redo all the mechanicals,etc.............oh, yeah, adjust the valves,,,,,,,,,,,,never having done this before, and ride their fresh bike to maintenance day???????????????????? :confused24: Oh well, it was a dream, if only for a minute!!!!!!!!!!!!! I actually like the deal for the region,etc. idea that was brought up.
spear Posted May 25, 2008 #11 Posted May 25, 2008 Not fair. It's very easy to nominate a region, and get your mate from there to join at the last minute.:no-no-no: I like my idea bettererest of all!!! (Thanks for the support Peg)
Bigfoot Posted May 25, 2008 #12 Posted May 25, 2008 Don, You decide on a number somewhere between 1 and 5000. We all get one guess and when the deadline approaches the one closest wins.
GigaWhiskey Posted May 25, 2008 #13 Posted May 25, 2008 Hide something on this site. The one that finds it wins.
Cinderella Posted May 25, 2008 #14 Posted May 25, 2008 how bout how many actual bikes show up at Maintenance day.....not people but bikes have a paper there somewhere to sign in your bike........that way noone has to go counting....as some people come and go.... they have to be signed in by a certain time on saturday??? if there are more than 1 with the correct guess, draw the winner from those!
spear Posted May 25, 2008 #16 Posted May 25, 2008 I think the thread has been lost here Don. This is all to do with our prospective 5,000th member is it not? Lot of superflous and spurious ideas being proffered. Better do something quick old mate. That magic figure is fast approaching!
Cinderella Posted May 25, 2008 #18 Posted May 25, 2008 well if you want to stick to something pertaining to the 5000th member......how bout what state that person will be from? and as before if more than 1 guess it, draw from the winners? I dont see why it has to pertain to the 5000 member thing...Don only said in honor of approaching 5000 members.......
Jethroish Posted May 25, 2008 #19 Posted May 25, 2008 Does not matter what the contest is. I won't win anyhow.
spear Posted May 26, 2008 #20 Posted May 26, 2008 Does not matter what the contest is. I won't win anyhow. NOW - THERE'S A POSITIVE ATTITUDE!
dragerman Posted May 26, 2008 #23 Posted May 26, 2008 Does not matter what the contest is. I won't win anyhow. We're all winners just for being here!
Gary N. Posted May 26, 2008 #24 Posted May 26, 2008 How about the member who drives the furthest to get to the International Rally?
Monsta Posted May 26, 2008 #25 Posted May 26, 2008 I'm gonna dig up my contest idea that I posted last time a thread like this came up. (with some minor changes) Choose a day this month. All entries for the day must have a picture of their odometer posted in the thread via attachment between two times you (Freebird) specify. Finished pic of odometer must be posted as an attachment, again at a deadline of your choosing. Whoever rides their Venture the most miles with a 24 hour period wins. There is a bit of an honor thing since you cannot actually say "start" to all of us. Here's my dollar.
