It is hard for one person to drive two Spitfires and take along all the
other crap that I always bring to these events! :)

Subject: Re: [TR] List Meeting at TFest
Ah hem ... We'll be DRIVING our Triumph to T-Fest ... actually first to
Monterey to get ready for the TTA Gran Finale Drive down 1A , 1268 miles
one way.
And ah, Blake Discher is driving his TR6?? If it is good enough for the
President of VTR, it should be good enough for any of the board members!
I am not sure what you guys are saving these things for, they were meant
to be driven! People do not see them when cooped up in a freaking trailer!
John Macartney has just driven over 14000 miles in the TTA Stag ... and
he is 65 years old!!
Darrell, you can put a tow hitch on the TR7 to hook a trailer for the
trophies, won't even get a point reduction for the hitch!
Okay, enough brow beating ... O:-)
But if you guys are in Denver the 25th, let's do dinner and beers! We
are leaving Denver the afternoon of the 26th.
Meeting places:
FWIW, We are staying in Pismo Beach, right on the cliffs overlooking the
Pacific. We will be there every evening to watch the sun melt into the
Pacific, so anyone interested, bring your Triumph, bring your chairs,
blanket and beverages, bring your snacks and join us!! Best Western
Cliff Shore Lodge on Price Street - nothing between you and the Pacific
except the cliffs and a beach.
other List and BCF Meeting opportunities: Wednesday at 5:30 will be a
"TTA Gran Finale Toast" in the Host hotel "Atriumph Lounge" (atrium),
then, Wednesday Thursday and Friday sunsets at Pismo Beach.
