I understand and agree with your approach...especially the T-Shirt idea
- there is simply no need to be left with a bunch of leftovers year
after year. It's not like you're making money on this thing :>

I do like the ditty bag as I think it will come in useful for carrying
papers, maps, etc inside the saddlebag. Cool. Just wanted to make sure I
didn't miss anything :>

Greg,
For the past several years we have been trying different alternatives to
pins as a "rally keepsake". Most Guzziesti have a drawer full of the
things,
& it seems collecting them is not as popular as it once was. Last year
we
gave a Sun-Moon-Stars bandana printed w/the date & location of the
rally,
this year it is the black nylon "ditty" bag. We're trying to come up
with
different & useful items. If you notice, we don't date our T-shirts.
Back in
the '90s we had a rally turn-out of 35 one year, due to a hurricane that
tracked up the blue ridge & caused tons of damage. This year (for
example) I
laid out over $900.00 for T-shirts, if we were to have another disaster,
I
can pack them up & sell them next year.
