Note: one of these answers is actually a trap to spot employees from a possible competitor. ;)

The last two announcements were on Fridays...

and it gives them more time to make sure everything is perfect

and they get to see us squirm as long as they can while still making good on their promise of news this week (unless they want to wait until the true end of the week, but lets assume they don't want to work any more Saturdays than they have to).

As this Friday is Easter Break, they might go back to Wednesday. So, I'll say Tuesday just because I don't want to wait any longer...  ;)

April 4th would be amazing since something else crazy good is being announced!

What else was announced yesterday? The 2013 Viper?

Brammo's running out of time to announce something this week.

I was thinking the same thing. So much for "Brammo always breaks news on Wednesdays". Perhaps the new Media Manager (Peter Anton) has them using a different strategy. Since we're already half way through Thursday, I'm going to guess Friday will be the big day.

Oh well. I know what release dates are like. There's always something that comes up at the last minute. Although in this case, they are only going to announce the specs of the Empulse (or so I'm guessing). It's not like they have to produce the final example until the bike will be ready for production. Are they still negotiating with suppliers -- trying to get the price down, or are they still talking to marketers -- trying to see how high they can drive the price and still keep customers?

Guesses, guesses. All I have are guesses. :(

Today's the last day if they want to announce anything this week.

The weather here is really nice today. We've already had some warmer days; riding the Zero is much more comfortable when it's hot out than riding on top of a gas furnace.

Flip side is when it's cold (mid 40s when I rode in early this morning) I kind of miss the extra heat : )

Good time to be riding electric..

Question, why is the next month choice labelled March and not May?

Mmmmm... March also starts with M. Sorry about that. It's all fixed now.
