I had a lot of fun today!
Many thanks to Arrwin & Bob for putting this all together.

It was just six weeks ago that I rode with you on what was to be the last spirited drive in my beloved R32 before I sold it; and today's drive with all of you was the first ever spirited drive in my new Golf R. I couldn't think of any better way to say farewell to the old guard, and usher in the new. Thanks to all for showing such hospitality to an 'outsider'.

As a token of my appreciation, I'd like to share some blurry videos and some overexposed and underexposed photos from today.

As we got on I84, I realized I had a Wagner CD in the glovebox. I just couldn't resist:

Another great run. It was good to see familiar faces and meet new people, too.

Looking forward to next time.

At Lime Rock, the last thing you expect to see filling your mirrors is a '64 Galaxie!

I put together a little video. My skills with the GoPro leave a lot to be desired. Plus, I don't have any real video editing software so I lost some quality in the conversion.

A friend of mine emailed me this link when she heard we were headed up to Lime Rock today - this is an article about her father-in-law.
