Big THANKS to the TWO other members who showed up...Eric all the way from CO Springs and A&PwitMS6 (sorry bud I already forgot your name..der) from Westminster. Yup, that was it...
Anywayssssss, despite the horrible turnout, the three of us (and A&PwitMS6's girlfriend) had a good time. Traffic was kind of bad though, we got stuck behind a Volvo station wagon (I'm looking at you, Huzer) in the canyon, and a Jetta out who wanted to slow down to 10mph and look at every single freaking burned tree...GRRRR!
I managed to snag about 45-50 minutes of GoPro HD action before my 4GB SD card filled up. I use the word "Action" loosely because it's mostly video of us stuck behind slower traffic doing the speed limit...I'm going to set about editing it tonight and tomorrow so I'll have a condensed version of the good stuff up soon, hopefully.
After the cruise, Eric and I had a good lunch at Lark Burger (recommended!) in FoCo, then hit up Ed Carrol for the car show. The show was pretty cool, lots of Porsche's, Audi's and Vdubs- two Ferrari's and Aston Martin as well. There was even an NSU there but no, it wasn't a Spyder so no rotary. Meet up with Dave (Operator) and Lyssa was there too stunting her Audi wagon.
So, not a bad way to spend the day, even if we didn't get to cruise at our "preferred" speed, the scenery was still quite beautiful and it was a fun drive. I just wish we could get some more turnout for these events...
