A nice spring drive is from AA to Hidden Lake gardens on a Sunday morning.
Nice 2 lane roads through farm country, little traffic at that time.
Picnic lunch and back to the real world by 3-4 pm. Mac

Guys-

I had a slight issue with the car over the weekend (ISV went bad). The replacement won't be here until Thursday or Friday. And wothout some additional miles ont he car, I cannot take it to the dyno this weekend, so I'm proposing we postpone the dyno day to a later date, yet to be determined. Maybe May?

Last night was a fun night despite the rain. We brought up the Windsor Ballet / Culture night in May, and it would appear that after the tale of woe from Mr. Backnblack928 that many owners have lost their man-cards.

So are we going to have our regular beer night? Also what about Munks? Anyone still up for that?

Andrew you have to admit it was a pretty good tale I can't help my addiction to slutty naked women You guys can still go with davek9 he still has his man card and I'm sure he's willing to throw hundreds of dollars so the rest of you don't have to

+1 for Munks

Alas, my car will not be there! It is stuck up in Green Bay awaiting a new harness.

I, however, should be able to make it.

See you there.
