I'm putting in an order for 100 patches today. I'll let you know when they're available. A few of you have already paid, so thanks! EDIT: The patches are in and I'm mailing off the pre-paid ones. The dedicated Paypal page for patches is not up yet, but if you're in a hurry you can use the Paypal link on the Donations page: http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/support-this-site/donations/Ordering instructions, including mail order, are available on the Patches page: http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/support-this-site/patches/ I'm still planning on carting a stack to the SWTF in Prescott, AZ, this June and the Kootenay RAT Raid in Nelson, BC, this July. Limit 2 per customer at those locations (unless I have some left at the end of the events).

We'll probably have a local contact on your side of the globe. Not sure how we're going to handle that just yet. I'll probably still have you use Paypal or just post a check.

Please hold off actual orders for a week or two. I'm going to set up a new Paypal online form for payment (you'll still be able to mail in a check or money order as well).

What do the patches look like and are they available for anybody? Are they bike specific? Just wondering . . .
Everything works if you let it . . .

Well, this is very disappointing. This is my last ditch effort, by invoking Murphy's Law by way of personal embarrassment... I've lost the patches.  I think I sold about 20 total so 80 are missing. The last time I remember seeing them for certain was in Prescott at the SWTF. I've searched my car, my house, my garage, my luggage, multiple times. Hell, I even looked behind the washer and dryer and under the beds. So for all of you who have patch orders outstanding, please be patient. As soon as I get back from the Kootenay Raid I'll get in touch with the embroiderer and order a new batch. I believe it takes about 2 weeks. Now, if this Murphy guy is real, the patches will be sitting on my desk when I get home...

John, did you by chance put the patches in the saddle bags of the HD that you rented? If so That sucker may have eaten them.

John,
Are you taking pre-orders or do you want us to wait until they come in?
Ride like you mean it.

It would probably be easier if you waited, but I track all the orders/payments in a spreadsheet. Either way.

Okay, patches are in. Bring on the orders. I updated the postage chart on the Patches page and copied the Paypal button from the Donation page: http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/support-this-site/patches/I'm shipping patches out to Thensley, Amglo, StevieB and ce7871 in the morning, and a batch to FunkleTrumpet to distribute on his side of the pond (orders paid from Birchr and Bugbear so far). Please don't nag him, I'm sure he'll send them out ASAP. If I missed anyone who has already paid and not received their patches, let me know.
