Agreed. Glad I finally caught up with you at the Motorcycle Cabin on Saturday night. It was the first time at MOTD for my wife and son. They had a blast; so did I.

I'm with you man!!! Are you fighting a bit 'o depression like me this AM??

I've decided it's to be expected after a SUPER weekend on the Dragon with parties, friends and all that...didn't want to leave yesterday and wish I were there NOW!

Local roads at home better beware...I got a new sway bar and an attitude to match!

Ditto all of the above sentiments!

I babbled on and on about it yesterday and my coworker, who could not possibly care less about massive car "reunions", was probably ready to throttle me

I continue to be amazed by how great everyone was -- I mean, that's a lot of people to throw together and have so many rave about the wonderfulness of the event. Fantastic cars, too: I can't wait til next year!

Sid, why didn't you introduce SpiderX to me!?
