Silence means many things. In this case it means I’ve been too busy to throw in my two cents and things are slipping by. What, do you ask, is slipping by? Why, let me tell you…. If you have specific comments or questions, please post them here and I will endeavour to answer them as I can.
We started out early at the Marriott as car #4. In front of us in car #3 are McKinnon and Putnam. Behind us are Toney and Hanson. The bikes start around #10. We started out in Kirkland. We covered the Mosquito Lake section first thing. Scores are in: We’re in 2nd place with 3 points. The leaders are car #2, Wallace/Krausharr with 1 point.
At 11am Sunday, it was about 92 degrees . Looks like there are 3 cars in our class, I (cars with unlimited equipment, a couple in IS (SUVs with unlimited equipment), 1 in II (cars, SOP) and a touring SUV. The bikes where broken down into 4 classes.
Last night we ran the 6th of 8 rallies in the local Friday Night Series. Today we’ll load the car and take a quick rerun of a couple of sections of Mountains to the Sea as a refresher.
