Bummer! Someone else pick up the Guidon and carry it forward? Sounds tremendously sad.

When I 1st started to get interested, the videos of this show (yes, including your truck) were what really lit me up. There is a void. Perhaps someone will choose to fill it.

I hope.

You will just have to come to the GA. RALLY, the BEST of its kind in the states. Instead of shipping stuff over for W/P, you can ship stuff this way, The GA RALLY is starting to be a international gathering of MV enthusiast, maybe it was time for W/P to close up shop, as another gathering is building up steam. .

Yes, all very well to say, But as an ordinary chap with an ordinary income, (now well retired!) It takes most of it to support my collection in fuel maintenance repairs and fuel.
I can and do try to participate at as many events as I can. But I no way could afford to ship anything to the U.S.A.
Hopefully a new team will take over the War and Peace event.

Well, dmetalmiki, as an ordinary RETIRED chap, I would say that you look like a prime candidate to take over the whole War & Peace thing with one or more of your friends. It'll get you out of the house, and since you're in London, you are already in the very center of connections and communications.

Yes, I think you would be superb as the leader of a new War & Peace Team!
