BEMISDERFER WINS ASRA PRO THUNDERBIKE AT SUMMIT POINT– Buell Riders Win Eight CCS Sprint Races.
SUMMIT POINT, W.V. (September 7, 2008) ? Harley-Davidson/Buell of Frederick rider Bryan Bemisderfer rode a Buell XB12R to win the ASRA Pro Thunderbike National at the Summer?s End Cyclefest at Summit Point Motorsports Park. Deeley H-D/Buell Canada/Ruthless Racing rider David Estok finished second. BMW rider Nate Kern, who finished third, clinched the 2008 ASRA Pro Thunderbike championship with one race remaining on the schedule. Kern is the first rider to win the Pro Thunderbike title on a brand other than Buell.
It was the first Pro Thunderbike win since 2006 for Bemisderfer, who was the Pro Thunderbike champion in 2004.
?We turned our focus away from Thunderbike last season, and it?s taken a little while to get back up to speed in this series,? said Bemisderfer. ?We?ve also had a real string of bad luck, but the H-D/Buell of Frederick team never gave up and has put a lot of time and resources into this effort, so it?s really great to finally have it pay off with a win.?
Heavy rains from tropical storm Hanna on Saturday caused ASRA to compress the entire weekend racing schedule on Sunday, and riders were gridded for the start of the eight-lap Pro Thunderbike national on the basis of season points. Deeley H-D/Buell Canada/Ruthless Racing rider David Estok, the defending Pro Thunderbike champion, and Kern, the series points leader, started on the front row and jumped off to an early lead with Estok on the point. Bemisderfer caught and passed first Kern and then Estok on lap four, and then pulled away to take the win.
?At the last minute I decided we should race our long-stroke bike, so the team switched the set-up to that motorcycle,? said Bemisderfer. ?I got behind a few other bikes in the first few turns and Kern and Estok took off on a clear track, but I put my head down and caught them on lap two. Once I got by I thought they would be right behind me, but I was faster and able to pull away.?
On the final lap, Bemisderfer set a new Summit Point Thunderbike lap record of 1:16.507. Sound Waves/Hal?s Speed Shop team rider Joe Rozynski was fourth on a Buell XB12R, followed by Ray Price Harley-Davidson/Buell rider Carl Reid, also on a Buell. After seven of eight events on the 2008 ASRA Thunderbike schedule, Kern has clinched the title with 223 points. Estok is second with 162 points, Bison Racing/Eagle H-D/Buell rider Walt Sipp is third with 115 points, and Hal?s H-D/Buell/Hal?s Speed Shop rider Dan Bilansky is fourth with 110 points.
The final stop on the ASRA Pro Thunderbike schedule is the 25th Annual Race of Champions, Oct. 16-19, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla.
Buell Riders Win Eight CCS Sprint RacesBuell riders won eight MotoSport.com Championship Cup Series (CCS) sprint races at Summit Point Motorsports Park. Ray Price Harley-Davidson/Buell rider Carl Reid rode a Buell XB12R to win Amateur Lightweight Superbike, Amateur Lightweight Grand Prix, and Amateur Thunderbike. Classic Harley-Davidson/Buell rider Arthur Diaz won Expert Lightweight Grand Prix and Expert Lightweight F40. Bemisderfer won Expert Lightweight Superbike and Expert F40, and Estok won Expert Thunderbike.

VETERAN ORDERS BRASS BALLS BOBBER–Dar Holdsworth, Brass Balls Bobbers? BossMan, reported that Adam Lynch ordered a motorbike from the crew. Adam is stationed in Afghanistan and sent pictures of his deployment.
He is working with Dar on the design while in Afghanistan and said that all of his fellow Marines are already getting sick of him talking about the bike and showing them pictures.
“Here are a couple pictures from my tour in Iraq last year with my Tank Platoon and from my current tour with the Mobile Assault Platoon (we are tankers, but they didn?t want to bring my tanks to play with the Taliban, so they gave me HMMWVs instead. Not a fare trade if you ask me), I hope the pictures come out.” ?Adam Lynch
We will send updates on the Lynch Bobber so you can see how it is coming together. We appreciate Adam’s dedication to the country and look forward to his safe return. – Dar Holdsworth
MYRTLE BEACH CITY COUNCIL PASSES 15 ORDINANCE TO LIMIT BIKERS– MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) – Myrtle Beach City Council passed 15 city-wide ordinances that they hope will limit bike rallies. These ordinances will apply year-round, but are aimed to limit May’s bike rallies.The ordinances that were passed ranged from a 1 a.m. curfew for underage teenagers to requiring photo identification for anyone checking into a hotel or motel. Officials went as far as implementing a mandatory helmet law for anyone riding a motorcycle within city limits.
All of the ordinances passed unanimously with the exception of the helmet ordinances. It passed 5-1. Critics say forcing bikers to wear a helmet goes against state law, which allows any adult to decide whether or not to wear one.
The city, however, says it’s only an administrative infraction meant to improve the safety of people living in the city. Therefore, they say there’s no conflict with state law.
Today, business owners were worried about the new ordinances. They say that the ordinances could cripple their business.
“If the bike rallies go away, it could be the equivalent of a category five hurricane hitting Myrtle Beach for the month of May,” says Don Cauthen, who owns two restaurants in Myrtle Beach.
With the new ordinances, business that have to call the police more than twice in a six month period could face a maximum fine of up to 50 thousand dollars. They could even be forced to close by two a.m.

What bullshit. Pull the rally completely. Bikernet is looking for a small town to buy. “I remember when Leon had a line on a town for only motorcycles,” Bandit said of a man who once ran Easyriders events. We need Motoville for motorcycles only. “I’d pass a law that all folks in cars had to wear helmets in our town,” Bandit said. “Sixty six percent of all transportation related head injuries are in cars, just 6 percent on bikes and 13 percent are pedestrian related.” We’re in search of Motoville.–Renegade
