Likely to become collectors items , these.

Limited supply, so stop someone with a BRONZ hat or vest, BRONZ summit anyway. (I lost track of what we are supposed to be wearing , after my suggestion of themed willywarmers for the guys and pasties for the chicks was voted out).

$10, they'll be worth hundreds in time.

You'd be amazed at how emo some folk get about these damn badges. If y' run out, sometimes someone will pratically demand that you go knock down the dude you sold the last one to so that said emo can buy it.

We didn't think we'd have time to get any made, and the wail that news caused!. Fortunately the badge-bod pulled the stops out, and we have some . - not a lot though.

The 1993 protest badge. From member Bronz had thousands made a re-sold throughout the country even if you couldn't go to the protest for something like $20. The money was raised was used to fight the bastards there were other fundraising things as well to get money for lawyers and like. But in the end wasn't needed as we ended up taking the compromise. Which we should never have done and hope we don't this time.

The worst case I want and am fighting for is to leave it where it is. The best case is the total rethink of the acc levy collection across the board for traffic account as we know there are better ways and again should be merged back into the super account. At the end of the day bikes should not cost any more than any other vehicle on the road, all vehicles bikes, mopeds, cars, trucks, buses, and vans have to be the same.

Stupid thing is these figures sound so familur in 2009 as they did in 1993...
