I have an idea for a December meet! No, its not a twisty Cato drive.....no its not a GTown run........How about giving a little holiday spirit to some underprivileged kiddos?

Last year, we found this really cool program, Elves & More. All you have to do is show up at the Reliant Center and spend a couple of hours (or as long as you want) building bikes! Easy stuff for a bunch of G Riders!

Flo and I will be at the Reliant on Saturday morning December 17th around 9:00 am and we will stay for a few hours to around noon. I think it would be a great idea if you could join us this year and volunteer some of your time as our December G meet!

I posted a few pics from last year and a link to the website.

Visualize 13,000 brand-new bicycles and 12,000 Treasure Boxes packed with 100,000 gifts loaded into more than 100 large trucks and delivered to 25,000 underprivileged children in entire neighborhoods, all on a surprise basis on December 23rd, with Santa at the front.

Great idea Roger! Where do I sign up? I'm gonna post this thread on my350z to see if we could also get some support from the Z's...I think it would be a great opportunity for everyone to help out and afterwards we could have pics or lunch? What do you think? Let me know...

 

You dont have to sign up..........just show up

Hope to see you there!

 

wow.........ryan you're the only one who replied .........i didnt expect too many people interested, but 1

did you post on 350z?

bump for a good cause ..........it will be fun and it really doesnt take that much out of your day

we posted this same thread on the motohouston forum (motorcycles) and got some interest over there.......there will be a few "non-cagers" showing up

 

I would love to join in but seeing as how it's on a Sat. and I work in the retail side of things, that's a busy, busy day for me. Sorry

 

I work saturdays, good thing is i'm close to the med. center, i can make it over there afterwards. I would still like to go on a run though.

 

Yeah Roger i posted it on my350z and it seems I have a couple people interested..just waiting for more to jump in and then set some details to meeting up...hopefully there will be more

 

I can make it. Are we meeting up first and then going to the Reliant Center?

 

Jenn....Yeah i'm thinking we could do that...Roger do you have any suggestions?....

 

I am thinking of going on the 17th also...hopefully in a brand new G!!!!! Homie, if you get a truck in on the 13th or 14th look for a DG coupe with VIN ending 703834. That will be my baby, make sure you take care of her! And no, I dont mean give her the break-in special

 

Im gonna try to show up. This sounds like a good cause, and i'll finally get a chance to meet some people from the forum.

 

I think i'm gonna need some help building these bikes, if i'm left to do it on my own there's no tellin what it will look like. he he he. It's the thought that counts, right?

 

I don't know about meeting up early...just making it to the Reliant by 9 will be a challenge for me

This is what I posted on 350Z.........

The PLAN is to meet at around 9am on Saturday 12/17 at the Reliant.....we already have about 10 motohouston riders coming and looks like quite a few Z riders and a few of G riders....

We can all meet inside at the video.......when you enter the glass doors of the Reliant, you'll come up to the sign in tables....once you sign in, they send you to watch a movie......over to one side will be a projection screen and a bunch of chairs.....they show you a 5 minute movie to "get you in the mood" of giving.....we can meet at the back of the rows of chairs.......the biker group should be easy to spot cause they should be all wearing leathers and carrying helmets

 

jenn.........building the bikes is pretty easy, they are mostly assembled already, just attach the wheels, handle bars, pedals and reflectors....we worked as a 2 person team last year.....you can pair up with a more experienced person.....any volunteers to work with jenn? anyone?
