Ahhh f@$k! I'm not saying that because I'm disappointed, I'm only saying that because I feel bad for those that think they let me down, which they didn't!

Mine just arrived today. I took it out of the box, flipped through the pages and admired all the great work, and hung it on the wall next to my computer where I do all my trip dreaming and planning. I didn't even notice the 2024 calendar error. That is probably because I usually write last years date on checks until about April every year.

I have proudly used this calendar for years to write in FJR & dual sport rallies I plan on or hope to attend, and my work schedule for classes at the motorcycle school. I'll be quickly ordering a new calendar and will refuse to hear any more apologies from anyone who honestly makes a mistake while attempting to do a good deed. Now if someone wanted to buy me a beer for their horrible mistake, I never say no to a beer. Just kidding!

Thanks for the hard work everybody. I know your time is valuable and appreciate what you do for the rest of us.

I've replaced both of mine. No need for anything for me.

Wayne - by all means, do what you feel you must.

But know this, and I'm QUITE certain I write for ALL of us:

There is NO NEED to do anything at a "no cost" option. Shit happens. We are all here becuase (in part) we accept the fact that shit happens, and yet we move on. We all know that you are taking this personally and want to "make it right" - your indisputable unquestionable integrity stands quite securely on it's own merit.

It's so easy to just print the correct 2025 dates and tape that sheet over the other one.

The pictures are what matters.

You can let this go.

Thanks and I / we appreciate it. But it's lead to an alterior motive - if my graphics guy can print a decent looking version, then I have a reason to create my very own version with just my pictures in it...

We may even consider an alternate means of producing them next year, where more of the funds go towards the forum.

Anyways, as Annette would surely chime in, "let it go? surely you jest..." :)

I just printed out a 2025 monthly calendar, and will tape them to the corresponding page...

The discounted codes should still work on the reduced price calendar to save a little bit more money for those that want to order a replacement.

I do want to thank everyone for their support and understanding. Despite my mistake, we're still able to keep the lights on and the site will continue to run. I'll learn from my mistakes and I should have a better product for next year.
