I waited for Wes, Ritz, Maurice and John. I paged you guys but then I lost the connections.

My son was so tired so I decided to take Hwy 17 instead and headed home. Traffic was good all the way.

Actually, I didn't want to bring it up before but on the day of dry run (a month ago) I was on my way back after lunch and there was a big accident right in front of me. A motorcycle and a pickup truck collided and caught on fire. When traffic began to move i saw body bags.

Glad everyone is safe in our group

I can't believe the number of cars this year. Last year we barely filled the top lot. My son and I had so much fun.

Thanks for another great run Andy and Carol! Thanks to Shannon for helping keep everything organized and smooth too!
Paul I loved our special group 5 tour of the golf course.


I'm sorry we lost you guys on the way home. We pulled to the side, waited for a bit and then gave up. Wonderful pictures as always Andy and Michael.

I close to 100 photos today but it'll have to wait until tomorrow for me to edit, upload and post them here. Thanks in advance for being patient!

To Carol, Andy, Shannon, Shane, the Group Leaders: thanks to each and every one of you for making this event such a blast! I had a great time and met a lot of new people, who will hopefully start showing up to stuff, as opposed to just being on the NorCalG Roll-Call list,

I'm also glad that everyone who's chimed in so far and who I spoke with on the phone have made it home safe and also had a really good time. Can't wait til the next run!

You are welcome! Yes, Michael and I were having alot of fun. The only thing that turned me off during the run was driving at the back with the group and smelling the bad Mitsubishi exhaust. I felt sick after that!!

I couldn't do that. Because I had to do multi-tasking while driving! I opened the driver' side window so that I could record a clear moving video of the twisties (with no glearview of the windshield) . My left hand was holding the camera w/video ON (from the outside) and right hand was used for driving.
