I've always been slightly disappointed with the variety of 181 shirts online, so I made my own! My girlfriend and I launched a company one year ago making longboards and skateboards from reclaimed woods and my Thing is the company car. I just came out with a new shirt design featuring 'Harviee' and I made a discount code for Thing owners - 25% off - SAMBASKATERS

Thanks for looking!

Never seen an XL or XXL guy on a skateboard; probably a good thing.

Maybe not, but plenty of them wedged behind the steering wheel on a Thing.

It sure would be great to have some people from the far reaches attend.

We've got XL in limited quantities. I'll add it to the site.

I don't mean to step on anyone's toes - those kubel east shirts have a great graphic Wink

Tait-
You're not stepping on anyone's toes!
I was just trying to drum up participation in KTE.
It would be great to have some adventurous young guys form up a California and/or Texas contingent for the next Kubel Treffen East.

I understand there's a Kubel Treffen West planned for June somewhere in southern Cal. That would be a heck of a Thing ride for me, but I still have a little "spirit of adventure" left in me, so who knows.
For me, Sam will always be the Mileage King.

Good luck, Mondshine

June 9, at El Prado Park (wherever that is).
Apparently, it's a big VW weekend in that part of California.

I guess Maxine would be grateful if I were to disappear for about 10-12 days Shocked

Still, it's a long, long Thing drive.

You can read about it on Facebook.
I joined Facebook to connect with more Thing people with the hope of expanding participation in Kubel Treffen East. We need some "young blood" (and more old blood too).
