...somewhere along there, was a "Falls".....


.... 10 over..... I think I remember "Drifting" around some of the turns, & curves....and the tree line was like this greenish "Blur".....
Thats cauz Bill (Bearnva) fell behind sightseeing at the helicopter.....

And then had to catch up.

Remember him, Hiro and Brian coming flying up behind me 10-15 minutes later..... They had been flying 85-100 mph!!!

After a while, Kathy & I slowed down to 60ish...... and at times almost pulled over. We were getting a bit concerned, but we were hungry so we kept going!

Its not like Bill not to keep up... normally when he is behind me he is "drafting"!!

I think I remember Melissa (Hiro's +1) saying she saw 107 or something like that!
