ESRI GIS and Mapping Software Conference

ESRI GIS and Mapping Software Conference, San Diego , CA , August 2004
Jenny and JR of MAD MAPS met with Quan Vu, Director of Telematics and Personal Navigation Sales at Tele Atlas, who introduced them to the wonderful world of GPS.
Tele Atlas is a leading provider of digital maps and aggregator of dynamic content for the navigation, telematics, and wireless industries. In simpler words, if you happen to use a hand-held GPS unit, or have one in your car, or search for driving directions online - more often than not, you're seeing information that has been meticulously compiled by Tele Atlas.

A lesson in GPS: Now, who's ready for the pop quiz?

Jenny reports back to Don Cooke, the "Father of GPS", on what she's learned so far

Hogs for Dogs

Hogs for Dogs, San Francisco , CA , September 2004
On September 19 th 2004 , MAD MAPS joined Max and Bailey on a benefit ride to Alice 's Restaurant sponsored by Dudley Perkins Harley-Davidson in San Francisco and MAD MAPS.

Max and Bailey are two Golden Retrievers who are riding across the U.S. in Harley-Davidson sidecars. The Hogs For Dogs Charity Ride ,(hogsfordogs.org) in affiliation with Paws With A Cause®, and other partners around the country, is raising money to benefit organizations that provide assistance dogs for people with disabilities.

By the time they arrived in the Bay Area, Max and Bailey had ridden thousands of miles and through 35 states in their quest to help others and MAD MAPS was only too happy to lend a helping hand to this important cause.

Hollister Independence Rally

Hollister Rally, Hollister , CA , July 2004
This year, JR set out for Hollister on her own but didn't lack for company thanks to the boys at BMW Motorcycles next door. Maybe that's why it was hard to spot her at the MAD MAPS booth...


I'm so lonesome I could cry!

Superbike 2004

Superbike 2004, Infineon Raceway, Sonoma , CA , April 2004
This year for Superbike, Jenny asked JJ Gray, one of MAD MAPS new recruits, to join her at the booth. Poor JJ had no idea what he was in for...

Now, isn't this cozy?

A full service booth.

A Day at the Races

Infineon Raceway, Sonoma, CA, Superbike Races, April 2003
Every spring for the past three years, we've been getting up at the crack of dawn and heading to the track for Superbike. We remember when it was Sears Point. More often than not we try and get a booth next to RKA so that we can pal around with Kathy & Rich. And we can always count on Fred from Hap Jones for providing "refreshments" throughout the day.
The gang's all here! And then some... Our MAD crew with Kathy from RKA and Fred from HAP Jones.

Psst! Come on over here big boy and take a peek.
 
Kathy from RKA seems to have a hard time keeping her hands to herself...

Another Day at the Races

Mazda Laguna Seca, Salinas, CA, Honda Superbike Races, July 2003
Our second year in a row and as expected, a MAD adventure. Thank heaven for roadside assistance, spare tires, and police "escorts." Thanks to Maxmoto for helping us display our wares to thousands of race fans.

Yes Knut, we want you to pose for our very first MAD MAPS calendar — Hot SF Biker Boyz.

Indianapolis Powersports Dealer Show

Indianapolis, IN, February 2003
Maggie was very disappointed that she was the one who got left behind this year to (wo)man the fort while Jenny and JR headed out to one of the biggest annual events in the powersports industry... But as Maggie sees it, the two Jenny's got what was coming to them... They experienced record low temperatures, icy conditions, a night in the ER, and a pair of crutches for the trip home.
