For all you non-believers out there...


Shakedown run at McLean on Saturday the 1st.... first time out in 4 years, so it ought to be interesting. Meet at the store for 9 (?)

I ain't leading (may need a tug), and it'll be relatively easy, but for God's sake, make sure your crap is in order, and running properly.

Sorry, was planning to be there but got reminded I'm learning how to 'curl' from 10-noon. ???? (yup, curl... It's a work thing)
If anyone was planning on a run on the 2nd I'd be happy to join in?

Come on Ron. It ain't like that. I mean really...nobody let Kevin bring a trailer, so it ain't like there are going to be parts falling off.
