Thanks for the trophy idea.

Unfortunately...Dino is not eligible to win a 2nd award since he won the Hotel Reprimand Award. We can, however, either add the award to the next round of HWB, or we can establish "Honorable Mention Awards". In such case...Dino could be eligible for an "Honorable Mention Award".

Who wants to guess what's on his shirt? Can I guess...does it have something to do with Baaaaaaaabara???

Hey SlyGuy...I brought my cowbell and we never broke it out!!! You should have reminded me! I barely even saw you!!!

No parts fell off the entire way home, and the temps stayed at a cool 196.

Glad to see you all made it back safe and sound. I assume CS made it home safely (nail in tire and all) safe and sound.

If so...The NEO Far West Caravan have all arrived home.

The NEO Far West Caravan will resume again in July. We will meet in the usual locations and can add or delete stops as needed.

One more thing to mention...While the NEO Far West Caravan was at the Indianapolis stop on Thursday, we we're joined for lunch by IndySky99! We all saw this Sky pull up and we're thinking...who is this? We don't know anyone from Indy. He didn't get out of his car for sometime, so we ran out to him! He couldn't make T2TR, but he wanted to stop and say Hi! Maybe he can make it in July! I'll post on the Sky side!!

Well after getting home, mowing the yard, throwing a couple steaks on the barbie and running to the store, I was finally able to sit down and get all my pics and clips together in working fassion. After the last two hours trying to get it to load to photobucket here it is. It's 6 to 7 minutes so just sit back enjoy the music and enjoy a small glimps of the ride "AGAIN".

Great job Mike, Mark, all the RC's and Sweepers and everyone in between too.
Jeramy and I had a great time.
Group "G" did a great job. We where top down since the first stop. Although we where "cruisers" I think we gave it a good hard run. Everyone seemed happy with the pace and the newbie’s did very well. We lost one car part thru 555 due to a passenger with a sick stomach but otherwise everyone came thru with "Flying Colors" thanks to Milt and Dott. I would be honored to RC that group anytime.
Jeramy was a great co-pilot and did a great job taking us down 26 into Marrietta while he was at the wheel.
Sky Vue 1 kept us together and did a fine job sweeping it was nice to know he was back there keeping us in line.
Thanks for the great pictures and video's. We didn't take many. I will see tonight if there are any worth posting.
Nice to see everyone, hope to see you July 26th.

One thing I meant to mention last night during my thank yous, but I was tired and forgot...

The Great SC and the road captains worked really hard to make this a fun and safe event for all. One of the best parts of the day was watching everyone make it back safely!

The planning of the running groups was excellent!! People who really wanted to push their cars were able to do so. People who wanted to cruise were able to do so. The aggressive groups were smaller and it helped keep those groups safer. Yes, there was a little slip sliding and a little accidental air from one of the aggessive group, but everyone made it back safely and that is the most important thing of all!

Always room for improvement. No matter how much planning goes into an event there are always unexpected things that happen at the last minute or even during the run. The more running and planning that goes into it, the better it gets! And I'm talking about the run, the safety of the run, and all the fun!

I appreciated all the hard work and pre-running that was involved by all the RC's. It really makes a huge difference and it showed!!! You guys did one heck of a job!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!
