I think I met that guy on the Skyway. Real nice dude, came up with HondaGal (hottie and darn good driver) from New Orleans. Super cool folks.
Were you apart of the Florida/ LA crew lost in the fog on the Skyway? Good times. Good times

Left round 10:30. Got back to Baton Rouge around 9. Great time!

We made it home safe and sound to Stafford, VA yesterday evening. Had a great time. This was our first DragonBall and we really enjoyed meeting other enthusiast. Hope to be back in April for Wake the Dragon.

Finally rolled in about 11pm last nite... poor DERF and +2 (can't forget T-Bone!) had another 5 or 6 hours ahead of them at that point.

We just couldn't resist that last trip through the skyway and around the long route to I-75. it got fairly cloudy but was definately worth it.

I got home around 2:30pm yesterday. Managed to get quite a bit of top down driving in as well as discovered a new road with some nice twisties just south of the 180 loop on GA Hwy 17

Kim and I made very good time and pulled in our driveway at 3am monday morning.

Andy, Mandy, Kim and I had to get in one last run before heading home late Sunday. After checking out Bald River Falls we decided it was time to head back home and caravan with Andy (Habitforming).

Also, someone stole all my tread from my rear tires. We left home with 5/32nds and returned with Zero.

Made it home to Jersey about 11:00 am Monday. +1 and I took our time. Hit a real heavy rain (35mph) on Sunday in Virginia for about 10mins. Dry the rest of the way. Great Event!

Blue Honda Girll,

Yup I was the one that had "Willie Gee" written across the top of his car. And the wing. And the FRS radio. And the music that we danced to at the top of the moutnain in the fog. Good times, Good times.

I meant to say that you were the hottie that drives well, I guess I forgot the Blue part.

Glad to hear you made it home safe. Did that cop write anyone any tickets BTW?
