    Thank you David, it was a great weekend.  We were blessed with perfect weather, great company, great riding and thank you everyone for putting in some great Kelly history readings.  Hope everyone got home safely that wind was a bit of a test.

    Thank you Greg and Julie for a wonderful well planned weekend away. History, myth, legend, story telling, dust and Vespas. With fun loving company, what a great combination. David
