IT ALL GOES BACK TO ORGANIZATION
After the show the winners had to wait for two hours to get paid. How hard is it to put money in envelopes and label them?
I am not saying putting on a show is easy by any means, but if your gonna do it you might as well do it right

2-lets' focus on the positive if you have negative concerns please pm me directly and keep the drama and negative bs off stuntlife
3-just want to congratulate you on being the firdt person to bit(h, there always has to be one and your were the first CONGRATS
4-as far as money in envelopes that is so nit picky, give me a break this was my first event, bottom line is 99% of people left happy that i know and all money was paid out , bottom line
5-fans were slim sure but c'mon dude cut me some slack, you all had a place to ride that was almost rule-free, seriously it seems as though you are being a lil too harsh on me, but again thanks for the support
6-my organization was fine, sure i am not perfect but who is???
Hope you all enjoyed the FREE food & drinks!!!!

Re: battle in the south
No sorry tried to edit but it would not let me. No there was great talent at that show. It was just a shame there was no one there to see it all. I thought it went well. Bad judging and just other bs. about the show

Whoo saaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!! lol Much stress involved, yall did quite nicely

Just saying that I think everyone would agree on at least the particular part of the track we were competing on WASNT GREAT AT ALL. No one could get it up, it was like a FAT COW was blocking the main stage of a stip club! Ask Kyle Woods. He'd agree considering he was trying to move the competition down a few 100 feet.

I agree with DAN. Sorry all others. I was talking to Geared Up right be4 leaving my house in Tampa, Fl (just moved from OHIO) and I thought by all the talk and reading on here that this event was 2 days. So here I am loading up and get a phone call from Aaron, we were making plans then I get off the phone and then I was like WAIT A MIN! Y didn't he say a word about the 2nd day. So I call Kyle, YEP ONE FIGGIN DAY I am driving for 1 day! What! STUNTERS ARE NOT MADE OF MONEY!!!!!!!! 
One thing that I can't complain about was I got in for only $10 cause I guess the gates lady messed up, but I thought WOW, good call they lowered from $20. Nope just a mistake. Still $20 and $20 every comp.
I understand it costs a lot to do a show, but PLANNING is much smarter! Plan MONTHS AND MONTHS ahead and WORK your a** off with local motorcycle shops, bike shops, and even national sponsors. For Cycle Palooza I am putting SO MUCH time into phone calls to my factory sponsors to companies and manufactures that I have only talked to maybe once. But guess what?! I am letting it be known even if they say NO, at least they may check out the site and thing about it. Then FOLLOW UP again, about week later, call again and ask if they had a moment to take a look at the site...NOPE, ok, Mr. DYNOJET are you at your desk? Good how about you type in cyclepalooza.com and check it out real quick with me on the phone. AND believe it or not, these factories will help! But planning and past events pictures and promos help to. So keep this in mind so you are not making your own bank account dry! Have some help, talk to companies outside of motorcycles. Maybe BMX shops, City Event Coordinators .
ADVERTISING IS A HUGE KEY TOO!
Sorry if you lost a lot of money, but don't be selfish be thankful that all these riders came from Wi, Oh, St. Lowie, Fl. to ride in your event for FUN! It looked like everyone was having a good time.

Every competition or show at a drag strip that I've ever been to we've been riding on VHT so you get used to it. It's much harder because the track is very unpredictable but that's where the crowd's at. You just over come the obstacles, and if the trick doesn't work replace it with something that does. (It make stoppies hard as crap though)

and I wasnt busting my A** out there by myself, just practing a few new things...so whatever. And as for tandem, again nothing new, why do a new trick and risk getting hurt when there is a big event like CYCLE PALOOZA coming up. I'll show it up there! :YEAH
