Re: Kane?Cycle Gear grand opening sacramento?
i respect you kane even with all the haters......but at the same time i think sometimes you could be a lil more humble. i used to have WAY more respect for you until i head some of the comments you've made on here.
don't forget the streets and the other stunters that are in the shoes you were wearing 5 years ago.

boogie - I like ya man so thanks for the respect but.. before you casually label me as a great "show" rider implying I am not a good competion rider.. do me a favor.. and not only qualify.. but beat me once at a comp once.. THEN imply i am a show rider first comp rider 2nd... thanks.. no offense but, how many times has my "show only" riding handed you your ***? (motivation for animosity, see above)

People will pay what you charge, essentially, stunters are the ones who made it so impossible to get more than $250 a day or whatever craziness. I understand being hungry. Thank GOD there are almost a limitless supply of company's out there.
Go look around at what entertainers cost and bring in, look at what athletes get as a consideration for just showing up to do an autograph signing.
You can laugh, but I am disgusted at what people are paying you guys. People who are just as obscure as stunters, taking WAY less risks are compensated better.
But I'll keep pushing for that day, it's a good thing you guys have one person out there saying stunters should make more money. You can laugh but it's beneficial to have someone saying you guys are a better value than...insert other exhibition here.
people will pay you less if you'll take it.

Were doing a show for a block party/tattoo shop grand opeing this weekend for 2000$
our base price is 1500 local if we have to travel they float the bill for gas. which in this case we have to drive a little over 1 hour.
We do one show per year for free to get our name out & it has done just that. we already booked 3 other shows this summer that are direct spin offs of the free show.
(we do get comped food /drinks / entry though)
and any charity shows we dont charge for unless travel is involved.

Am not new to the stunt scene in the Valley.......I remember in 04 I think there was a show in Atwater where each of the stunters got paid $1500 for a ALL DAY show.... and they busted ***...wasn't (3) 15 minute ... it was a all day event...those same stunters are now chargeing $4000 and $3500 a day.... which I believe is 100% worth it but not everyone can afford those pricing to put on a event. I recently used my local stunters ( Idol Riders ) to help me with my M/C Event I put on this year. I paid them what I could afford and they where totally happy with that and from my event they will have others booked. Every stunter who is getting paid top $$$ started off doing shows for free to get their name out there.

I don't book exhibitions, but have been sitting in as a LOT of meetings convene, and people ask me what I think they should be willing to pay for exhibitions, that is what I tell them.

If you were around then you would have respect and be a lot less ignorant.

I own an agency called Champion Riders Inc. My name is Rebecca.
Presently I'm injured, bored and enjoying a discussion about stunting as a pro competitive and exhibition sport.
all this legitimacy, professionalism and forward momentum has gotten my interest.
there's a lot of positive feedback coming in. in years past my faith in stunting has been pretty much openly mocked by corporate types who are finally coming around or have stepped aside since the recent acquisition of the AMA.

I've got huge respect for what the pro stuntriders and promoters have accomplished. and for the stuff they must have dealt with over the years, as much as stunting gets opposed by parts of the mc industry. I'm sure it's been a frustrating uphill battle at times.
