[TR] List Meeting at TFest

[Joe Curry]

It is hard for one person to drive two Spitfires and take along all the
other crap that I always bring to these events!  :)

Ah hem ... We'll be DRIVING our  Triumph to T-Fest ... actually first to 
Monterey to get ready for the TTA Gran Finale Drive down 1A , 1268 miles 
one way. 
And ah, Blake Discher is driving his TR6??  If it is good enough for the 
President of VTR, it should be good enough for any of the board members!

I am not sure what you guys are saving these things for, they were meant 
to be driven!  People do not see them when cooped up in a freaking trailer!

John Macartney has just driven over 14000 miles in the TTA Stag ... and 
he is 65 years old!!

Darrell, you can put a tow hitch on the TR7 to hook a trailer for the 
trophies, won't even get  a point reduction for the hitch!

Okay, enough brow beating ...  O:-)

But if you guys are in Denver the 25th, let's do dinner and beers!  We 
are leaving Denver the afternoon of the 26th. 

Meeting places:
FWIW, We are staying in Pismo Beach, right on the cliffs overlooking the 
Pacific.  We will be there every evening to watch the sun melt into the 
Pacific, so anyone interested, bring your Triumph, bring your chairs, 
blanket and beverages, bring your snacks and join us!!  Best Western 
Cliff Shore Lodge on Price Street - nothing between you and the Pacific 
except the cliffs and a beach.

other List and BCF Meeting opportunities: Wednesday at 5:30 will be a 
"TTA Gran Finale Toast" in the Host hotel "Atriumph Lounge" (atrium), 
then, Wednesday Thursday and Friday sunsets at Pismo Beach.
