Getting on the road now, had a glitch with closing the rear door against the temporary plywood floor and seems some dumb dumb forgot to cut the hole in the floor for the PTO lever. Hopefully this means I'm leaving murphy behind me

The WC was from Blue Hill, He stopped on the way by, attending another event. Plans to come next year.

tourus, no trouble. its hard to plan arround everyones schedules. several regulars were cought up in other plans. I keep useing Fathers day weekend so its a memorable date every year so hopefuly people can plan.....
A late summer or early fall rally might work well. Give it a try.

Hope everyone made it home safe, Thanks for comeing. See ya next year!

Hey guys, I made it home without any trouble. Here's a shot from my angle.

That was a good long distance shake down run. My odometer reads 288 trip miles but google maps says 300 miles even, I'll side with google. On my "home blended" fuel looks like I averaged 8 miles per gallon, I think thats about where it should be for "alternate fuels."

It was great meeting you nk14zp and willey10! As for those who couldn't make it-- Man! You guys work too hard!

Hello sorry to bomb this page. But does anyone of you New England guys know where I can buy some 37'' Goodyear mt hummer 37x12.50x16.5 tires? To order them it cost as much as the tires themselves for shipping.
