No no no, there's two x's in GixxerJasen boys.
And this is why I wanted people to check. Left the files at work. It'll be updated in the morning and ready for sale.
Also, full disclosure, I almost missed it myself. I mean, the part of my name I expect to be misspelled and what I automatically check for, you got that part right so I almost moved on. :D

One for me, and one for each of my two brothers. Maybe this year's photos will convince them to buy a motorbike. :roll:

Thanks, Timmy, for your effort, and thanks to all who nailed a bike-of-the-month centerfold shot!

I don't know if it's too late, but on the one with the 2 13's, the names of the owners are on the wrong bikes. Festus is the bike on the left, Viper Dad the bike on the right. If it's too late, it's too late. Calendar looks fantastic, thanks for doing it!

If people can order them already, I'm guessing that it's already water under the bridge...

Shit. Sorry about that. I thought I had it right, but I guess not. It was kind of a spur of the moment decision to put both names on. I had already done the artwork before I got to that image. When it came time to put Viper_Dad's name on his, it looked wrong not having both names up.

I've fixed the image so it is correct now. Unfortunately, those that ordered already may receive a limited edition version of the calendar with the incorrect names.

I talked with support. They have a 1 hour cancellation window, but they said you are welcome to try and change your order. You may need to cancel and reorder. I'm hoping that there are only 2 people that care about this mistake and that they haven't ordered yet.

Hopefully that's the worst mistake I've made.

I'll let my boss know that I won't be getting any work done that month because I'll be sitting at my desk staring at the calendar thinking "Shit, can't believe the wrong names are under the wrong bikes, how did it come to this?!?!"

No big deal Tim, I wasn't sure how the system worked, if they waited for a certain date and then started running them all at once or it they were made on demand. No worries. At least some number of people will think Viper Dad's bike is clean and sexy.

No worries at all. It's not like anyone actually knows (or cares) other than Viper Dad ;)

Hey, speaking of rare archaeological collectibles, I have an XXXL brown Toas, NM polo free to a good home. Never worn. Hand Pickup or hand delivery only. I'm not shipping it. I'll sell to anybody except AJ, because I know he's still trying to destroy all evidence.

Wow, those pictures look great. If I would've taken my FJR anywhere this year I would've liked to submit a picture or two.

It's interesting to me that all but 1 photo appear to be in the mountains somewhere. Well, maybe 2 (one by the lake, not sure if mountains around or not. We (collectively) really do seem to gravitate to the mountains.

All of them are clearly mountains except mine and the lake one. I can assure you that mine is in the mountains of Arkansas at the location of the best pie in the region. Mountains are more fun so we like riding there and when we are having fun we want to share so we take more pictures.

Besides, boring pictures like this don't win awards, even if it WAS taken on the way to the mountains. :D
