Rob (and Others):
The Calgary Vintage Sports Car Club groupies are going to greet the cars in
Banff, on June 22-23 ( they have a rest day) and watch them leave on the
24th. They will be crossing into Montana and heading east to New York from
there. The Hillman and the Talbot are still in there and doing well!
