Lee Acree, Kurt Kesler - Charlotte Observer

Congratulations to Lee Acree, :up: for his feature color photo on page 1B of today's Charlotte Observer, taken at CMP.

In another picture, Kurt, Diedre, and Olivia Kesler are shown.

In my memory, these are the first local M/C roadracing pictures ever printed in the Observer.

to the Observer for FINALLY recognizing that there exists racing other than NASCRAP. Although it's worth noting that there wasn't a NASCRAP race yesterday.

 

Too cool. Is Lee from Charlotte?

 

he lives near greensboro.

 

I had no idea he was a fellow North Carolinian.

 

Gotta link or is it print only?

Deidre said someone came up and was talking to her and taking a few pics. Anyway I could get someone to mail me a copy?

 

Thanks. It is nice to see some positive publicity.

 

Hmmm... they mention my name, and the picture is of a #9 bike and it's a 2 stroke, but it definitely isn't me....

 

It must be you. It's in the paper.

 

you sure? that looks just like you, Mark.

thanks again for the help learning the track. :up:

 

That's Ian Tetrick... 125 rider.

 

That's freaking AWESOME!!!!!!

What a great shot of my sticker in #5. I guess Lee doesn't look so bad in the rest of the pic either. Hahaha Course pic 9 kinda summed up the weekend from what I was told.

Y'all notice the author's email at the bottom of each caption right? His / her in-box should blow up with "Thank you"s for showing this level of our sport in such a positive and well done light. EVERY one sends out screw you emails when an Ebay sale goes wrong or to bitch about the pro series. How many good emails do you honestly think we're gonna send? Be honest.

I'll even make it easier for you JAMEY PRICE - [email protected]

 

The saying:"I've taken dumps that were bigger than him" comes to mind....


Your welcome! Always glad to share my knowledge. It was pretty funny when John came in, talking about the battle you guys had. When he said that you were riding circles around him in the turns, the first thing I asked him was: "Did he pass you on the inside of the triple right?" :up:

 

Nice pics. Lee, can you post up some pics of you bike, like a few side shots? Thanks

 

Sent mine hours ago.

 

Mail sent! Good coverage for our sport:up:

 

Thank you, it looks great! I was wondering what a blue/white with a blue fender would look like in case you were wondering lol

 

I love the caption under Lee's photo about the warm down lap.
Good to see good press for a change.
