[Ron Braithwaite]

Just as an aside, there will be a bunch of Biker Scum gathering at  
the Moon & Sixpence on NE 42nd, just north of Sandy, tonight. I have  
a box of almost 50 Ubuntu 5.04 and we will take a picture with us  
biker geeks holding the CDs in front of our scooters. If you ride a  
motorcycle or a scooter or if you just want a copy of Ubuntu to go  
with your beer, you can show up and be in the picture, too.

Just a thought.

>>   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BadgerBadgerBadgerTour
>>
>> I will be travelling for a month and a half, criss-crossing the  
>> northern
>> hemisphere, to bring the world of Ubuntu to your doorstep. Expect  
>> badgers,
>> mushrooms, schnaaaaaakes, an awful lot of Ubuntu CDs, and a  
>> healthy dose
>> of madcap hijinks! If you would like to catch up with me during my  
>> journey,
>> add your details to the wiki page, or reply to this email.
>>
>> Where will I be?
>>
>>  * Boston for the GNOME Summit
>>  * London to check out our office
>>  * Amsterdam for EuroOSCON
>>  * Milan for Smau e-Academy
>>  * Montreal for UbuntuBelowZero
>>  * (US tour surprise - see below!)
>>  * Mexico City for GULEV
>>
>> So... What's the surprise? Well, I've left a big gap open in my  
>> itinerary
>> for you to fill in! It's kinda like reality TV, but without the  
>> TV, and with
>> a lot more airline food. Here's how it works:
>>
>> Would you like me to visit your local LUG or Ubuntu LoCo Team? If you
>> live
>> in a US city with a major airport, and can arrange a venue and  
>> audience
>> on one of these dates, you have the chance to rearrange my  
>> itinerary in
>> your favour!
>>
>> All you have to do is create a virtual petition of twenty  
>> supporters -
>> the
>> more creative the better. You could get twenty of your user group
>> members to
>> post their support on a mailing list thread... You could get twenty
>> friends
>> to blog about it... You could put up a photo of your LoCoTeam in a  
>> huge
>> Ubuntu circle... Or you could come up with something even cooler!
>>
>>  * Send your entry to me, Jeff Waugh <jeff.waugh at ubuntu.com>
>>
>>  * Submissions close September 30th. The first ones in will be the
>> easiest  to award - get in quick!
>>
>>  * Please include a link to your virtual petition, along with your
>> contact  details (phone number, in particular)
>>
>> Good luck, Ubunteros!
