First off, I want to thank everyone that showed up. We had a good turn out of about 30-35 vehicles and still had half that stayed to the end.
My daughters and I enjoyed meeting a lot of new people, and are honored that each and everyone of you trusted us to not get lost with the weather coming in.
I would like to implore all of the "new" people to read through the past rides from the last year. There are picture, carnage, discussion threads that will give you an idea of what a "normal" club ride looks like.
Also please look at this thread,
http://www.gatrailriders.com/GTRForums/index.php?topic=11735.0as it will give you insight into the mind set we should all have.
I don't want to discourage anyone, as this is a sport that is closer to my heart than any other hobby I have. It's refueled a relationship with my oldest child, and I'm starting to see the light in my youngest eyes.
Its expensive, requires time, patience, and as someone told me when I first started, a little bit of masochism.
But for me it's always been worth it all.
