Hey guys,

I've been following the Cannondale story pretty close. It seems that Rad2go is out of the running. They haven't been active in the discussions since Indy. It seems Polaris keeps raising the bar on the bidding. And they're due in the factory next week again to check things out somemore. And Murray is doing alot of looking too, but Polaris has showed the most interest of all the bidders. And you wouldn't believe some of the companies that are looking at Cannondale, I'd say about 14.....

I don't know about the rest of you, but I can't wait til March 20th....I'm going nuts over this....
:confused:

Yeah, there's sex here alright!!! Until we get a buyer we are all taking it up the *** right now!!! Some of these newly discoverd problems are scary. Valve cover erosion, motor mounts etc. What's next???? We need a buyer!!!!!!!

lol Moto, that's exactly what I was going to say....and they're not using any lube either!


This news wasn't from a dealer, it was someone that was also bidding on Cannondale. It's a real good source. I just can't wait until the 20th....I think I'll buy a Polaris shirt and see if I can sneek in that day! smile.gif

No, I don't think they are. I really do think they want to keep the quads going, and drop the bike line. It'd be a nice cousin for the Predator.
