So, I was thinking that there are definitely enough MOBsters to be able to contribute to a good cause... How about we buy a brick on at the Corkscrew, at Laguna Seca?
Info is here:
http://www.laguna-seca-fund.com/steps/steps.html
I think it would be a grand way to bring our new home, the DMF, and our whacky little family, the MOB, a much deserved recognition.
It's just an idea, so kick it around and see what y'all think. [thumbsup]
I'm in for a DucatiMOB brick... but I'm anti DMF brick.
I think as volatile as the whole internet forum thing is I'd hate to sponsor someones forum only to have it go defunct.

+1
Besides, MOB has a better ring to it for those unaware of what it means. Gets people to think hmmm ... "Ducati" = Italian ... and "MOB" ...
;D
I'd definitely like to see a MOB brick! It'd be great if this would spread across all the individual clubs associated here.
How cool would that be? You walk up the path , and come across an entire section of nothing but Ducati clubs' bricks! [thumbsup]
I am in if we get enough people to keep the price down.
Just let me know what the final price is and I can Paypal you or something [drink] [beer]
I'm still a little new w/ PayPal. Let's see what the response comes to, and if it looks like there's enough folks interested, then we can finalize the details.
Like Rob, I'm interested if we can keep the price low.
On BARF is it's like $25 if 10 people sign up. Not a bad price.
*EDIT*
for the big brick (the only brick worth getting) it's $20 a person if you get 25 people.

You wouldn't think by the 2500 miles I put on my Duc in the last 6 weeks. I hate cars.
Every time I use it i get a parking ticket. I guess you can't park them on the sidewalk.
What?
:P

Just thought I'd say as one of the nearest things to being the "someone" in "someones forum", I think this is a perfectly sensible attitude!
big (Oh, and if you're close-but-not-quite-there, sign me up for a $20 portion of brick!)

Hey, great idea and thanks for taking the helm on something cool like this! Count me in for the big brick! [thumbsup]
I'll go in for $20.
Me too. [coffee]
I'm in for a MOB brick [thumbsup] Little or Big -whatevs, so long as its not a lot of $$$.
I'm in.
I'd be in for this. (pending wife veto [laugh] ) meh I am sure I can get her to sign off on $20 :)
Awesome Idea btw! [clap]
So, what's our head count? Sorry, I've been off line for a few days...was up at T-Hill with Team Tigerbike for the AFM races. [moto] [moto] [beer]
Count me in, provided it doesn't require emptying my pocket too badly.

How about making it a vote?
Count me in for $20
Count me in for $10
etc.
So if I counted right... haven't had my [coffee] yet... it looks like we are up to 14 interested in getting a brick at Laguna.
If we get 25 of us, at $20 per person, we can get the large 12"x12" brick. I think this one, with the MOB logo...which means we need to make one...would be the best way to go.
12x12 Brick Paver
$500 â€" Up to 10 lines of text
or up to 5 lines of text with your logo
So we have 14 now. We're over half way there. I won't finalize any payment details until we have at least 25 people. Obviously, more than 25 will be better for everyone! [thumbsup]
bump
You've got $20 from me. Come on guys/gals, we've got to have at least 25 people on here willing to chip in $20. If you're broke just cut back to 1 [coffee] or [beer] for the next week and there you go!
Although I would prefer we had our own decals or small plaques to affix to our bikes, I'm in. Let me know the details where to send payment and do i get an official picture of it when it is installed? ;D
i'll contribute, and i second the poll idea to get a good feel for running total.
Alright people, time to get this ball rolling again.... lets try to get at least 50 folks on board, then I can get all the payment details lined up, and the MOB can have a brick at the World Famous Corkscrew!!!
Who's going to set up the paypal account to send the money?

I'm hoping someone more PayPal savvy than me will offer to do it. ;D

Gee...I wonder if anyone on the board (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=53) works for eBay/PayPal?
Bump
Good plan [thumbsup] , I am in when paypal account notify who is the one money will drop through.
Bump, and Duckwrench you still taking the lead with this? How about posting a list of names of those who've offered to chip in on the original post? Maybe then we can get the paypal deposits started. Thx.
What's going on with this endeavor anything?
Count me in for $20. Hopefully more will commit so the price goes down further. Bump.
Alright, since everyone's been so helpful ;) .... I'm in .... just let me know who/where to send the money.
...sweet! Its a good cause and its a cool brick :)

no way ... put the nor cal on TOP of the so cal brick. it's the natural position for the superior portion of the state.
