Instead of just posting the pictures, I decided this time I would put together a slide-show.
I finally had some extra free time this weekend, so I messed with it a little.
Hopefully it came out ok.

A very BIG "Thank You" to all my friends who made this Rally special to me!
I truly am a "Lucky Man"!

Enjoy!  :drinks:

The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Yeah, I missed it..............I love Willits, and you west-coast Folks, but I can typically only make it to one Rally each year. (Gotta divide up the vacation time between myself, and trips with Tanis and the Boys)
This year I had the opportunity to host one here in Colorado, so I took it.

I fully plan on attending the WCR next year though!  :good:

Looks like our SoCal Mike's bike and or his penchant for finding the edge of his tires... A bit of a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone...

I thought LA Mike's FJ was black, when did he get a different Fj?
